elmerfud Posted October 17, 2007 Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 I'm thinking of putting a D3 in my truck. I want to start listening to the music on my MP3 player (Xen, not iPod) and I need a navigation system and back up camera pretty bad. I like the D3, except... 1) I don't want to buy an iPod (and accessory interface) to play my MP3 files 2) I don't want to buy the USB accessory interface to use my Xen because several people have mentioned its terrible. 3) I don't want to be buying updated map software all the time. Any chance that a D4 model would fix some of these complaints ? How long has the D3 been out ? I am strongly considering purchasing a Nokia 810 as a substitute. Its seems as though once could make it do just about everything a D3 could do for less $$$$ ? If only it had a larger touchscreen ? http://www.linuxdevices.com/news/NS3669465936.html BTW: I have a Pioneer DEH something DIN 1.5 CD/Radio right now. I love it.

TxJole Posted October 17, 2007 Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 Sounds like you just need to buy a midget to hold your Nokia 810 and tell you which way to go then run behind the car when you are backing up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
elmerfud Posted October 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 The 810 has USB ports. A simple USB camera would probably work pretty well for a back up camera. The 810 could play MP3s through the FM transmitter. And the 810 has GPS and CHANGEABLE Nav software built in. And it has WIFI and a keyboard. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

whtcrxghst Posted October 18, 2007 Report Share Posted October 18, 2007 Pioneer navs usually come out in Spring. Ask all your questions after CES in January and you might get some answers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
