anybody got any reviews on avic n5 whats the real difference between n4 n n5 ..im lookin to buy the n4 is cheaper now...does it make sense to buy n5 over n4 im thinking theres no real difference can any one help me make a decision...thanks
avic n4 vs n5 help please
I have the N5... Nice unit! same as the n4 just updated map Disks.
Agreed. Just the disks
The N5 will support more IPOD audio/video playback than the N4 will
No it won't, they both support ipods identically
Im just going by what the catalog said. I hooked a 4th GEN nano to my N4and itll play the audio and video from the 3rd generation nano now, which it would work before.
Could be that the firmware update that is part of the new maps on the N5 (80MT I guess?) has added better IPOD support.
I have got both the map disks that came with my N4 and the 80MT disks, I will see, but I am guessing the first time I put the new disks in, the N4 will force a reboot and a fireware update also.
Anytime you get a firmware update you are bound to have some fixes to all kinds of things.
Ipods function identically with both, have sold a number of each
My older IPOD Classis (No Video) work flawlessly all the time, nver had a issue with it on the N1 or N4.
My 5th Gen IPOD Video (I bought used to get 5th gen because I had herd about some issues with gen 6) acts funny sometimes and hangs and will not play untill I reboot it, or screw with it till its happy not sure which.
Sounds like an ipod software issue, not a pioneer issue
Maybe, I never use it enough while not in the car to know for sure.
But never had it do it when not in car yet.
