PERFECT head unit. The remote has so many funtions some what hard to get, but its all explained in the owners manual. the background choices could be more high tech and less plain, I wish you could store pictures as back ground with the jpeg compatabilty the head unit has, maybe in the future. Overall "PERFECT" head unitand a great buy.
