It's just like gas mileage, they are not moving forward.
There is no reason, 80/120 gb hard drives with some type of iTunes Op system and a small flat screen shouldn't be installed in cars these days. No one has placed any kind of importance on this technology.
So, in a nutshell, if you really like music and have a large collection of music at home, replace your stock HU with an aftermarket unit, replace those paper speakers and crappy stock "subwoofer" with higher quality products. Remember a 4 x 25w or even a 4 x 50watt quality amplifier will do wonders for the sound in your car. You must double the wattage to double the volume - this only applies to better quality products, not flea market junk.
Engadget, is this all you got? for us car audio junkies? It's Engadget, not Encomputer.

And my setup is
modular. I just upgrade my iPhone every year. ]]>Jan 7th 2010 2:23AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/alpine-intros-pandora-controlling-ida-x305s-head-unit-ina-w900/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/alpine-intros-pandora-controlling-ida-x305s-head-unit-ina-w900/
Oh yeah? I do the same, except my music is streamed wirelessly through the bluetooth module to my IXA-w405. No wires, no bullshit. Pandora, 32 gigs of tunes, and if I want to watch video on screen, I can plug it in. ]]>Jan 7th 2010 3:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/alpine-intros-pandora-controlling-ida-x305s-head-unit-ina-w900/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/07/alpine-intros-pandora-controlling-ida-x305s-head-unit-ina-w900/

that's why i've reverted back to aux in.

i want an ultimate car headunit that is basically a carputer that also plays SACD/DVD-Audio MLP and Blu-Ray (for when more audio only profile 3.0 discs come out) and 11.1 setup for DPLIIz in the car.

that and HD Radio.
