Jason,

 

In my eyes your level of AWESOMENESS has just been elevated to EPIC freaking proportions.

 

If you're in Long Beach again next year and need anything (pick up from the airport, etc. etc.) let me know. :cool:

Sorry Jason for bein a PAIN in the rear but what about for the Z/N/D series and when you get that info can u find out as well if the updates will make our maps look similar to the NEW way Pioneer are releasing their map animation please.

Hey kryngle check here: viewtopic.php?t=24318

 

He answered your question a little while ago in the original thread in which you asked it...

Posted Jun 13, 2009 · 21:32 UTC#10

No no he only answered the question regardin the nav weather and and what nt but not the release dates for the 2009 maps for the Z/N/D series. Just curious on that.

What I'm really looking for is how responsive each input/touch is on the screens. I'm still waiting for a pioneer HU that doesn't lag or has a delay.

That seems to be fixed. Check out the demo videos.

I was told "about a month" and that comes from one of the designers.

Thanks for the videos! Looking forward to the x910 video. Neat icon dragging feature, but the touch seems a bit unresponsive still...

Posted Jun 13, 2009 · 23:27 UTC#15

Iam I missing it, where are the videos?

Posted Jun 13, 2009 · 23:28 UTC#16

Any more videos of the new Z coming tonight? Like the new voice control of the nav or anything? Also, what are the bootup times for the new units like. The Z series probably has an upgraded CPU and am looking forward to seeing the difference that makes. Thanks again for the coverage.

 

Any ETA on the 3.0 update? Or is that coming along the same time as the map update.

All my demo videos (boot up, voice control, nav, everything) will be up at some point tonight. The 3.0 software will require the map update, it's going to be about $70 and requires a key code.

That was just me not knowing how to do it the correct way. There's a technique to the drag/scroll. In the later videos, after I realized I was doing it wrong, it's not an issue.

I was thinking that it was just being new to the system. The screen was even picking up when your finger was pulling away from the screen. The bootup time of the z series has me SOLD. ~10 seconds from what I counted. That is phenomenal. Any word on the CPU in the Z? Almost seems like a dual core or something atleast 1GHz. Maybe even Intel Atom based, who knows. I'm hoping for street prices in the $1200 range. Also, the new MSN direct features look great providing that they actually work. I kind of wish they went back to XM Navtraffic since it can be received anywhere XM can and is not dependent on local terrestrial FM stations, which may or may not be crappy and slow to update any info, if any at all.

Hi Jason, great to see you keeping everyone so up to date on what's happening! Is it the 3.0 software that will cost $70 and the maps will be more... or will that $70 include the map update?? I just bought my F700BT last week, will there be any consideration of people who have very recently purchased? Thanks so much!

Posted Jun 14, 2009 · 02:50 UTC#22

The 3.0 update includes the new maps.

Posted Jun 14, 2009 · 03:01 UTC#23

Thanks for putting up all the information. Any idea if the 3.0 will add the extra features in the msn direct area (news, stocks,etc.) for the f series? Any mention of what is new or improved in the 3.0 update outside of the maps?

 

Thanks again

Posted Jun 14, 2009 · 04:16 UTC#24

The 3.0 update will make the F series equivalent (software wise) to the X Series.

Posted Jun 14, 2009 · 04:19 UTC#25

I hate to be cynical, but it seems like the new series isn't worth the extra money over the current F series. If you can get an F90BT for $600 new (Amazon), is the X910BT really worth $1,100? It seems like the improvements are mostly software based and you can get the new software for $70...?

 

Edit: Also, if I read the press release correctly, the F90BT comes with the iPod adapter but the X910BT doesn't...?
