It's just a custom plastic piece for an android tablet and a headunit'ish android launcher.

I would totally go with something like this, just as soon as they come up with a native solution for handsfree calling using a tablet like this.

I'm doing it now, and its a huge pain in the ***. Just working on getting good sound out of the tablet and my rear camera to work has been enough for me to want to throw it all in the trash and buy a standard head unit and be done with it.

It's definitely an integration project.

I wish these new chinese units would come as a 2DIN box with no face and a cable attached 10" or 12" touchscreen to be installed separately.

Really? Other than having to remove/redo the wiring from my Pioneer, the install was extremely simple. For the sound, I have an aftermarket amp (if you don't already have one) and but one of my friends recommended a crossover to completely split the channels; the sound coming from the tablet using the 3.5mm to RCA is terrible. I assumed I would be able to get decent sound using only my amp (Polk DA4000.4) and it was just that: decent. However, there needs to be better separation between the front/sub channels.

I thought they mentioned something about rear camera support sometime in the future, but not sure when. However, for phone integration (as Jayhovah mentioned), they're working on adding that in one of the next updates. Version 3 is supposed to come out this week and they usually have updates every other month give/take.
