go with the pioneer avic-80. thats what i have. i added it to be avh-6500 and it works aweseome. The touch screen is the best part, you wont ever eed remotes again.

nightime,

have you tried changing bakcgrounds via the PCMCIA port? I can do so successfully but when I shut the car off and turn back on the background reverts to the default one. NOT the one I loaded in. Do you have the same issue? I mentioned this on a Pioneer message board and an employee stated that it IS a known problem...whether they fix it is another story. That's about the only issue I have with this unit...but in my opinion it should be flawless. The newer version(AVIC-88DVD) is coming out soon it might not have this issue. the AVIC-N1 doesn't have it also.

Drew.
