hey

have a avic-d2 and was thinking of getting the ipod unit CDIB100II

 

when they say that using that unit with the d2 have limitations etc?

what exactly is limited, is it worth getting? can anyone with a d2 and have the unit for ipod can post pics of the screen interface.??? thx

 

u are able to search artist, albums, etc on the d2 unit right?

when a song is playing does it show the info artist title etc.??

one more thing

with the ipod connected with the CDIB100II, do the ipod power on and off when the car is turned on or off?

 

or u have to power up the ipod everytime?

on a d3 unit

u could have the ipod playing while the screen is on the navigation?

Yes, you can do that with ALL Pioneer navigation/ipod combos.

 

If you use a D2, your limitation will be the one line of text so you will have to choose whether you want the song title, artist, etc played, you don't get them all at once like you do with a D3

 

on a d3 unit

u could have the ipod playing while the screen is on the navigation?

That's not the only limitation... the worst one is it stops what's currently playing when you browse. It does this because it tries to cue up each and every title you land on when you browse so it would take almost forever to get to a particular entry in a list.

thx for the reply

and what about with the ipod connected with the CDIB100II, do the ipod power on and off when the car is turned on or off?

IB100 and IB100II are the same electrically, the older one is silver and has an Apple approved cable with 2-wires, newer one is black with Pioneer's own generic single cable. With both, the iPod powers on and off when the car is turned on and off.

And charges the whole time it's hooked up to the CD-IB100
