DNX8120 also has homelink stuff (not sure how that works), which is cool.

what do you guys think about the garmin map vs whatever pioneer has? is it really that much better?

damn, i wish someone has a DNX8120 for me to play with...

from a guy like me who uses a lot of GPS systems ALL gps car navigation systems have issues sometimes they send you down the wrong roads or make you go further in the opposite direction before going the right way again

see, even a reviewer on the kenwood had issues

there is no perfect navigation system

my D3 nagivation disc has sent me the long way plenty of times, and yet so has the google maps on my iphone 3g

I just installed my F90BT about a two weeks ago. Awesome unit. Everything (including nav) works great!

I like that the ipod cable and the bluetooth is built-in so that you don't
have to buy any additional bullcrap.

I did the same z3 vs F90BT and i can honestly say that I am glad i went with the F90BT.... sure a bigger screen is nicer, but having actual buttons to press
and a real rotating dial helps tremendously with real world ease of use.

i think most likely i'll be going for the 90BT instead... I think it's a bit pricey for that additional 1.1" of screen size... Damn, if it's 1K installed I think I might do it...

alright, no go on the Kenwood...

F90BT: 800 x 480 384,000 pixels
DNX8120: 480 x 234 336,960 pixels

Sorry, resolution bigger than screen size IMO

the only thing i don't like is putting in the nav disk

I am D3 owner as well as a previous N1 owner and I agree with you as well.
However, I use my Ipod about 99% of the time so its not that bad.
