This thing is not highly rated. Pioneer has new app radios that are compatible to both Android and Iphone.

is this like a single din radio?

Actually with the pioneers track record being buggy, freezing, and really good support. I would wait.

I have heard good things about this unit from previews and pre releases.

Only MP3, AAC and WMA are supported.

I'm def not a fan of this.

First one out guys, as I have been saying all month there is going to be a LOT of new head units this year.

I am excited for the fact that android is finally coming into the car audio game, where apple has been for years.

considering i only usually listen to my mp3's anyway this would work...and having pandora would be a plus. but i'd want a bigger screen with resistive (pressure) type touch panel especially here in the winter i have gloves on and clumsy.

keep the ideas coming, big!

With further inspection this head unit could actually be installed in the cubby above the radio in a z. It is almost have the depth of a normal head unit.

Just an idea
