After weeks of research, I finally settled on the KIV-700. Its only been in for a few days now, and I can say I am overall satisfied with the unit. I haven't been able to see whether or not the video feature works, so cannot comment on that.
Pros: buttons/knob really smooth, 3" screen is super clear and displays colors really well, variable illumination allowed me to match my car's lights, ipod interface is easy and fast, made my stock monsoon speakers sound amazing, excellent selectability for sound options
Cons: when switching to or from "ipod by hand mode" it either freezes up my ipod or the unit itself, the huge amount of wires in the back made it near impossible to get it in but I have a compact car, so that contributes.
Overall I would definetely reccomend this HU, and with Sonic's unbeatable prices it's a steal!
