Munkey Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 Maybe they pushed back the date because they took all the guys working on the update disks to work on fixing the F-series... Or maybe after reading all the talk here, they pushed the date back to add some copy protection to the discs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Yettavr6 Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 I think (hope) if Pioneer actually read this forum they would have fixed some of the issues with the D3 by now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HiFiSi Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 I'm sorry to say that unless this new disk contains some fixes for the D3, that nothing will ever be fixed with it. As pessimistic as that sounds, it's the truth. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dmhines Posted July 25, 2008 Report Share Posted July 25, 2008 What would be neat is if they put full iPod video control functionality in the head unit like the F's ... Pulling my iPod out of my center console to control the video sucks .... If they could somehow cache at least the list of Artists so they would scroll super fast would also be a really nice bonus. Animated background images would be nice ... or at least some dynamic equalizer settings and such. I had a Pioneer 7800MP before this and the animations and cool graphics put the D3 to shame ... and that was just a single DIN unit ... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LeonPhelps Posted July 29, 2008 Report Share Posted July 29, 2008 My dealer told me that pioneer car audio is going down the shi++er here in Canada, if I dont see some kind of update (Which I highly doubt) I will never buy another pioneer product as long as I live. I was looking at a pionner Elite series TV for my new house. Lets see what happens. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

HiFiSi Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 What does that have to do with this topic? And WTF is a "hot" minute? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Yettavr6 Posted August 16, 2008 Report Share Posted August 16, 2008 The update dics are now available for $1500.... http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6882117261 If you don't feel like clicking the link, its the AVIC-N5. It's now for sale and includes the discs we are all waiting for, so they are already being produced. Who knows why Pioneer is holding out on us. If you know someone thats buying a N5, RIP THE DISCS FOR US!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
