I have an Alpine IVA W505 but I DONT recommend it. Mine has a lot of issues and I am about ready to shyt can it and go another direction.

1. Its slow, it takes like 3 to 4 seconds to advance to another song.
2. Just about every other time I use it I have to unplug and replug my iPod to get it to detect it. Arrrrggg!!
3. Sometimes it makes my iPod crash and I have to hard reset it.
4. Sometimes it just shuts down for no apparent reason and turns back on but it goes right back to playing where it left off. Grrrrr!
5. The Navigation is almost worthless, Whomever designed it should be publicly flogged!

On the other hand, I have an older model Alpine IVA-W200 in my other car and I love it! It has never given me any trouble and it works perfectly and its been in use for 3 years.
