I just purchased an AVIC-F500BT on amazon for 347.90 woot, and was wondering if there is a release date for the 2.0 update as of yet.

I cant wait for it to arrive and try some of the mods you guys have posted. I've found these forums to be very informative and to contain some really wonderful tutorials / docs.

Keep up the good work.

p.s.

Is what i read on the main sticky thread correct that the F - series units are running the IGO-8 software and not the 8.3? Just trying to figure out which map color mods i can download.

Yes, it is running a custom build of iGO 8.0.1.something. AFAIK color schemes did not change with 8.3 and ones on the net are likely to be for 8.0 anyway...

Most schemes will need minor tweaking before they are useable.

Thanks for the confirmation on the IGO version. I'll be sure to post the results of any mods that I am able to successfully deploy; once the unit arives.

You're welcome. Have fun with the unit.
