anybody have any opinions/comparisons of these new F series vs. the D3? I love the way the D3 is set up but I know obviously the new HUs have newer and better functions but dont like the smaller screen :dontknow:

I have the F700bt and i like it a lot. The main complaint about them is the long start-up time, but it doesn't really bother me too much.

Has good navigation, connects to my phone automatically, etc:top:

thanks :top:

did the D3 have anything that you wish yours had? also, what's the diff between the F700 and F900? I'm sure I could look that up on crutchfield but I'd rather hear it from my xru bros...:biggrin:

Pioneer has really pissed me of with those little @$$ screens :eviltongue:. I was gonna go with the Avic-F90BT but the screen size threw me off. I then was gonna go with the DEH-P800prs and my 1/2 din Arc audio EQ. Then my buddy threw me for a real loop and had me look at the Sony XAV-W1! Winner Winner Chicken Dinner!! :top:

F900 reads DVD's. That's the only difference i believe.

IMO the pioneers are over priced.

My Kenwood DNX5120 has NAV, nice ipod interface and some other stuff. Only cost me $700 with a 3yr warranty

Spyder.. did you update to the new 2.0 firmware? my F90 was taking a while to boot up.. probably about 1 minute or so.. now it's down to 30 seconds or less.. depending on the last AV source.. touch screen is more responsive..

No, i didn't do that. Is there a download for it or something somewhere?

EDIT: nvm, just found it. Will have to go do this..

Is there a hack out yet for it like the one for the D3 that lets you watch movies and input addresses on the go?

Yep, i literally just now figured out and sorted through the software hack version of it all.:top:

While doing the install, the wiring method is probably the easier choice though.

I also discovered (info in the avic411 forums as well) that once you get to the windows based OS screen, you can change most everything.
