As far a radio's go which is better the touch screen versions or without the touchscreen.  I am debating between a kenwood KVT 915DVD  (touchscreen)or Alpine IVA D901 (not touchscreen).  I was just afraid of  fingerprints and touch screen going out.  Thanks

I agree, I hate touchscreens.

I disagree i had a touch screen in my car a while back and i had no problems with the screen getting dirty just use some common sence and dont go eat taco bell and then goo up the screen with finger prints.  so i'd say get it if you want it.  I also had no problem with anything going out on it at all so i'd say get it cause its something different and adds a cool  touch to the car stereo in general

Iv installed both the kenwood and the iva-d300 touch screens, , they both sounded the same to me, kenwood was a lil cheeper if i can remember right.  The iva-300 felt really cool when you pressed it tho haha.   I haven;t done a iva-d901 yet, i like the 300 more.

Don't get me wrong, I love the kenwood unit, but I still hate the idea of touch screen.

Of course you like the IVA more, alpine guy.
