I bought this after seeing it at CES 2012, I was planing on building a Carputer but this had everything I needed except a web browser. The thing is you can not drive and browse the web anyways! The voice features are top notch on this thing. It takes some time to learn to navigate it. The audio quality it puts out is also AMAZING I drive a BMW Z3, it comes stock with a alpine deck. Does not have nothing on this thing 7 band EQ Bass bost and A loud feature.
