I've got an AVIC-Z120BT upgraded to Z130BT firmware and I'm getting ready to yank it out and go with the 8500.  The nav package is "better" on the Z150BH as opposed to what I've got, but not enough to justify the price and the fact that I'm using either Waze, Google Maps, or MotionX just about all of the time now anyway.  Seems silly to me to have a native navigation package that sits idly by while I use navigation app's that I like better from my phone.

 

"Appradio Extensions" is your friend for a jailbroken iPhone.  There are plenty of threads regarding it, specifically in the AppRadio section of these forums.

 

Can't tell you about the TV tuner, although it looks fun.

 

FWIW . . .
