I am thinking about which screen I should get for my new car. I was considering getting a N2, but someone told me the Kenwood 25th Anniversary is much better.  I am going to get a touchscreen and it is down to about these two.  Any opinions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I have no experience with the Kenwood, however I really like Kenwood products.  I carry the N2 and like a lot of things about it.  What I wanted to let you know is that the N3's should be available shortly and there was a price reduction with the debut of the Z1.  The N3 should retail for $1800.  There was a review of the Kenwood one in an old issue of Car Audio and Electronics you might try and search their website, www.caraudiomag.com

Oh, I didnt even know that a N3 was going to come out.  Do you have any kind of time frame of when it should be released?

Supposedly I can already get them but, I doubt my distributor has any of them yet because they will go quickly right now.  Sorry I can't give you a more definite.

Is that supposed to be 'some' quality or 'sound' quality?  If it is 'some', either would be a good choice.  If it is 'sound,' the pioneer AVH-P7600DVD sounds better than both the models you mentioned in your post.  No navi like the kenwood though

Check out the 7600DVD then.  Expensive but sounds better than the other two choices
