I ran across this today. Looks like Pioneer is releasing a mobile version of the F500, but its listed for Japan release only at this time....

Here in Japan we'll soon have our Geeky hands on the latest PNS from Pioneer, the AVIC-T10. Featuring a 5.8†VGA screen, our PNS has 4GB of internal memory, Bluetooth, and can act as a hands-free system. It also has HDSPA connection support (through a module that allows you to plug in your mobile phone), TV (1Seg), and plays WMA, MP3 and AAC files. It provides Smart Loop Traffic Congestion Information, Parking Space Availability Information, Gasoline Price Information, and PinPoint Weather reports.

 

Especially interesting is the “Rendez-Vous Service,†useful when meeting someone as it allows you to select a convenient meeting place based on emails received from your friend.

I wish we could get those PIO icons!

The ones on my 90BT are so old fashioned.

Once Pioneer puts out it's AVIC FEEDS software you can create your own POI icons.

I wonder why they are displaying a unit that appears to be based on the current F series yet the NAV looks better than what we have today......

What are you talking about? I don't see any pictures of the nav anywhere on there... just a mock-up of the POI importing screen or something like that on an F-series unit.
