FINALLY the product we expected it to be !!!
improvements i've noticed:
- MUCH faster menu navigation
- no lag in video playback
- ability to switch FM preset channels or jump to another mp3 folder by clicking the Steering control button (for those of u who have it).
- No more cut off MP3 songs a few seconds before the end!
- When entering house number, u have a keyboard of NUMBERS displaying now (much more logical!)
- screen touch sounds less annoying
Enjoy the video!
this is looking very good, much faster!
Yes, this looks amazing compared to what we've been dealing with. I'd really miss the awesome mods people have done here but I may be willing to give up test mode for this performance if it really came down to it. I'm sure someone will find a work around anyways either that service mode or something else.
Couple quick questions
Did you notice improved boot times as well or just the performance after it boots up?
In 2.0 I believe bluetooth was a separate install so was there any BT upgrade or is the BT version different?
Haven't seen any references to the speed limiter bypass yet either software or hardware for this or the 2.06 version so I'm curious about that.
Either way thanks for the video, I'm really excited about this now.
This is how it should have been from the beginning. I wonder if the bluetooth is more reliable. I am tired of fighting it.
ooh nice. I hope to get the presets toggling on my audi too. Finally! Are boot up times and bluetooth connection times still the same?
Seeing the performance after this update, I'm tempted to buy another F90BT for my other car. 
Looks promising. But doesn't Firmware 2.0 have "just the number screen" for the house numbers already? Mine does. And I have revision 2

+1 Mine has that already also.
Looks good so far! When will we all have access to it?

Ah ok...well, i had to switch keyboard everytime to enter numbers...
About the Bluetooth, it's HW100-SW300-RC3 (by memory ... i might be wrong).
The phone interface is a bit better, but i haven't use it really yet. (and i never had problem with it before either).
About the startuptime, no improvements noticed...

Startuptime has to do with the IGO i believe, it takes time to load. I had 8.3 on an other unit and this took about the same time, so i don't expect improvements there...

Kind of thought the same, it does load quite a bit. Oh well, my back up camera and music comes up pretty quick anyways so it's not a huge deal, the button delays could drive me almost insane at times so I'm still really happy from what I've seen so far!
I see that the maps are 2008.10, this are not the latest because ther is already newer maps (2009.2)
Thanx
Can you use the knob to switch presets now instead of it just going to the next channel
This certainly has me excited for the update. Thanks for sharing!
can you still watch videos while driving? or does this update disable it?

Does the bypass and testmode still works for 100%. Can you do everything as before the update to 3 
They are dong it again 
2008.10 Maps?
We are Juli 2009 and I have seen 2009.02 Maps already 2 month ago. I'm happy to pay for an update if it is really up to date.
I appreciate they have to do some more testing and developing, but wrapping it up with newest maps a coupple of days before they ship it shouldn't be too difficult.

Can you do us a favour and check if Testmode 2.3 works with 3.002?
Thanks a lot

I zoomed in to show you the maps are labelled 090428, that means : 28th April 2009.

TestMode 2.3 ?? What is it?
I knew only 1 test mode.
Point me out to TestMode 2.3 for a EU version, and i'll try it.
