I'm sure most major outfits will be stepping up their game. I know pioneer has the new lineup on their website.
and the DNN992 does look pretty awesome

Looking at that Kenwood DNN992, it's got facebook and twitter? Do other decks support those apps? I hope you can't do that **** while driving...

I was hard core Pioneer as well for years, until I tried Kenwood out 3 years ago, very happy with them.

The only thing that looks promising is MHL 3.0 which will let you mirror your smartphone AND control it completely with your HU's touch screen. Everything else looks halfassed, I really don't understand what these car audio companies are all so happy about supporting 10-20 apps out of millions.
