I need to do that update then. Mine takes forever.

 

I would just go ahead and get the 3.0 update that just came out last week. You should have preordered it though, it was 1/2 off for a while.

 

I ain't payin for anything. I'll just deal with the slowness haha.

 

check out the link i posted on the first page. and only $330 for the Kenwood

 

I dont like the looks of that place. I bet that ****s stolen. LOL

 

I know, Im skeptical but its almost worth trying and just make sure you keep any info you can just in case you need it later to go after them or whatever.

some one just try it and let me know if you actually get it and if it works lol.

 

Regardless of that 2.0 update... The kenwood kills the pioneer

 

And why is that

 

Well for one the touch screen is very picky on where u touch when selecting stuff. And the voice recognition that doesn't work well at all Makes the iPod take a very long time to load beause every time u turn it on it's loads the stuff in the voice software... Annoying for something that I'd never use... Also... The text for track names is smashed if the title is too long. They are harder to bypass the brake.. And I just plain just don't like em that much... Now the Avic d3... That's a good unit.

 

This is just from my experience, my unit is fully updated so it was probably different from yours. The iPod thing has never happened to me after the first time. Once it loads the VR stuff it only does it once, every time after that its instant. I didn't even plug my mic back in though when i moved it to the 150 due to lack of use. It doesn't smash the track name, it will scroll through it. The brake bypass is insanely easy, all you do is ground the parking brake wire just like any other unit. The D3 and F-series are almost identical in software, just a little different on the extra. Seems like I need to make a video to get rid of these myths

 

So you think my pick would be fine?

 

I've never heard anything bad about the kenwoods, I'd like to get one for my mustang i just dont want to pay for it lol

 

I dont know much about them, I just dont wana buy it and be like **** this isnt what I wanted cause its slow or something.

 

I dunno... I love my kenwood so I would highly suggest it.

 

Go with the 900bt, they can be found on ebay pretty cheap. then go to avic411 and follow the directions to mod the os to be that of the new AVIC U series and presto.

 

Do you mean update the OS? Or did the find a way to put a whole new OS on it? I bought the 3.0 update from Pioneer, wasn't too expensive and saved me all that trouble of downloading stuff.

 

I have what you have except my AVIC thinks its a U series. Other than that I doubt there is much difference. All the stuff to do it for free is on Avic411.

 

Ah yeah the U is the new one. Avic411 is a great site, a ton of people know there stuff on there. The mods they have make it so much nicer

 

Yes sir. Some of those simple mods make all the difference. I have a few mods I thought up that I really want to do, but I just haven't had the time to sit around and tinker with the data.zip. One day, one day.
