Z120BT has much better preouts than the X920BT (4v versus 2v). This will make a large difference if you are hooking up aftermarket amps to this HU. Also, the Z120BT has dual zone capabilities while the X920BT does not. The last one difference that my installer told me about was the x920BT does not have 3d building representation unlike the Z120BT which does. He told me he actually had a customer swap out the 920 for the 120 because of this so it might be a big deal for you. I personally love that and it is a real attention grabber for anyone riding with you in the car (if that matters). I don'

I agree 100% with everything you just stated in that last post. Here is my hope as to what Pioneer is planning with this Z110BT chain. Year one, release the unit without any major issues. I think success there pretty much compared to what was available on the market then. Year two, upgrade the av section into a very user friendly and safe to use unit and make it an upgrade for the previous model. Year 3 (this is my hope anyway) Pioneer focuses their attention on the shortcomings of the navi on this unit. Once again making it into another upgrade for the 2 preceding year's models. If they do in

Unfortunately, you just have to live with it. I, personally, don't use the Bluetooth for calls too often and when I do they are short calls. Sometimes I do just hit back track once or twice to replay what was missed when I was on the call. You can have it play through at a lower volume if you like too while on your call. Unfortunately, that could interfere with the call quality and I have not tried it personally.

Yep, totally agreed there. Take a better look around. It is all laid out on this site for you very well...

I feel it will. I believe you and everyone else I have heard it from. I just want to make sure it has everything tho. There is alot to upgrade there it seems. He did indicate possible price tho as you said and it was a little on the steep side even if it still would be a great deal. I will be a most definite adopter there. I can't wait!

Are there any nav upgrades at all on the Z120BT. I mean in functionality not maps. I have been told there will be no updates to the nav at all. Huge disappointment there if that is the case. It really could use more functionality that's for sure.

I can wait. None of the main players appear to offer traffic in my Canadian city yet so maybe by then whatever service they do go with might actually have something of use to me.

From the demo video, the radio sceen looks exactly the same from an information point. ie. no true RDS. Is there a button to activate more info? The 3d graphics are awesome on that unit. I really do hope that there will indeed be an update for the 110 into a 120 like was mentioned on this site a thousand times and at the end of that video. I am really thinking more all the time about XM Radio too. Really liking the looks of that unit thus far.

From what I heard, an iPhone app may be in the distant future to provide free traffic. Oh, boy, I sure hope so. That would be killer and be the deciding factor on me getting an iPhone. Even the possibility of that would likely be enough as I have just been looking for a reason if ya know what I mean.

You say the Z120BT is going to have RDS. Is this FULL RDS functionality? ie. will it be able to display radio text or just station name like the Z110BT? Is this also going to be a part of the Z120BT map update for the Z110BT? I can't wait to check out that video on the Z120BT later on. I am stoked now. lol It will be interesting to see if it turns on any quicker than the 110 does not that it is slow at all really. I guess I am just an impatient kind of guy.

While I'm at it... How about a 5.1 surround processor in a nav system or at least an add-on that cn be controlled by a few nav units without an external controller which most of us don't have room for in their dash without serious modification(= expensive).

Yes, that would be awesome too. How about POI alert notice too - like for traffic cameras...

Yet another one, what are they planning for traffic updates after MSN Direct is done in a little over a year. Will it be any good in Canada unlike MSN Direct is too?... How about Total Traffic HD Plus like the new to be released JVC product coming soon? That one sounds awesome if it works and it's free to use!! It would be really cool if you could answers to even half of these questions. Really appreciate you trying.

Of course a couple more just popped in my head lol When is the Z120BT update for the Z110BT going to be available? What exactly will it actually have in it? ie. will it make it EXACTLY like the Z120BT as everyone seems to think. Another one that really ticks me off that I have seen others complain about too. Let's have the damned ipod pause when you are on vc or even better (longer time) on a call... Nothing worse than rocking out to a nice song and then you get a call that lasts five mins and your song is over when the call is done and you have to hit previous song to get it back or really st

Oh, where to start?... First, I will reiterate what was stated above. Where the heck are the musicsphere and pandora functionality? Why would they release a new unit that has these two features as main features and then the buyer can't even use them? A big piss off I'm sure even if it doesn't affect me really - have a Z110BT. Next up, how about some better functionality/useability from the nav part of the unit. They really appear to have worked on the av end of it which I think is the best there is. They have a ways to go on the nav end tho. Maps are decent at best and could definitely use an
