A HUGE thanks goes to Pioneer for sending me a pre-production F90BT to review. I just received it, so here are some unboxing pics to hold you guys over. I will try to get it installed tonight and have a full video review up very soon!
You must be logged in/registered to see the pics!
More pics on Page 2 and 4!
Awesome, awesome, awesome! I can't wait for you to get it fired up so we can start asking questions.
Here's the first on though:
What's the AVIC-F7010BT?

Awesome. Cant wait to get a hand on this. Please upload more when you can. BTW, I'm with the post above. F7010BT ?????
I'm guessing it's a Europe Model, It's not in the US lineup. This is all pre-production stuff, so there are likely to be typos.

The Avic-F7010BT isn't a European Model.
Does the F90BT have voice recognition for NAV commands? Like POI's and Address? I've seen Pioneer advertise this for the AVIC-Z3, but haven't seen any word of this for the new F-series. Thanks.
Got some clarification from Pioneer on the F7010BT, its a model for car dealerships (expediters). Basically the same as 700BT.
Sorry, no voice command for navigation, audio/bluetooth only.

Wow, that's a bummer. I was fearing that when I didn't see Pioneer talking about it in their ads. Still a great unit though.
is there a microphone built-in to the front of the unit? I would rather have one there than to run a wire to somewhere that might look out of place.
Yes, but it also comes with a wired mic if you so choose.is there a microphone built-in to the front of the unit? I would rather have one there than to run a wire to somewhere that might look out of place.
Here is the #1 question! How do we bypass it for watching movies and using GPS info on the fly?
See if an external USB drive loaded with DIVX can play on the screen 
See if it has time correction for the different speaker outputs.
Let us know how fast the mapping is compared with the Z series.
... and everything else

That's good news! Is it that little hole next to the eject button?
I think the mic is right above the aux-in jack and right below the little bluetooth logo. The other one is likely a status light, or something else at least.
i have the d 3 installed and the wires in the f series look the same, my question is can i keep my same wires that i have connected to my d 3?
Thank you so much. Been dying for more info on this. Has/Can Pioneer send you a copy of the manual in pdf to post up here? Would love to flip through it to see all the little nooks and crannies that this thing offers.
NO! I just found this out the hard way! Although it looks the same, the wires are in a different location and the size of the connector is slightly smaller. It will be tomorrow before I get it wired up.i have the d 3 installed and the wires in the f series look the same, my question is can i keep my same wires that i have connected to my d 3?
Can you mimic the push talk button on the wired remote interface rather than only have to keep pushing it?
ohhh. looking good am hype !!! when you get it all hook up take it for a spin to see if the Navi is better than the D3 make sure its not taking you 30 miles out your way! i can't wait!!! to see it!
where is the ipod hook up? do you have to use the USB cable for that?
Well, I had to call in a favor, but I got it done...What I thought was going to take an hour, took over 3 hours. My D1 wiring had to be completely redone for the new unit. But anyway, it's amazing, I seriously can't get over how nice the screen looks.
Pics for now, video tomorrow. (It's 1AM Eastern Time and I'm going to bed) 
forgot the ipod and voice pic.

Sorry, no internal mic. I was jumping to conclusions before hooking it up. The hybrid unit does have an internal however.
Wow that looks sweet, thank you so much for sharing!
Awesome screens. So how is the voice control for the iPod. Someone else said that it was buggy on a prototype unit. Has this been fixed? Also, does the manual hint at all to having a nice icon-ified Sirius interface like the XM has? Once again, thanks so much for sharing.
Me likey the MSN direct info. Crazy what they can do these days
