Just a question: what sorts of navigation is possible on a D3 without doing the bypass and without stopping the car?

 

I realize you can enter a new address for navigation, but...

 

Can you ask it to navigate to a saved or recent address?

Can you ask it to take you home?

Can you cancel your current route and turn off navigation?

any functions possible of unit. what part arent you understanding. bypass makes unit think you are parked , so it does not prohibit any functions

When you say "choose destination" does that included saved destinations and recent destinations and "home"? Or do you only mean that you can't enter an address from scratch?

 

P.S. I'm used to using Tom Tom Navigator 5 on a PDA, so I don't know how much of this is applicable (i.e. recent destinations)

When hooked up the way Pioneer intended, you can still touch the 'Home' and 'Go To' buttons while in motion. You can't enter phone numbers or scroll through any of the POI/Vicinity Search Menus

Bah, that doesn't sound too bad. I might pass on the bypass in that case. As long as I can hit the "home" button while driving and navigate to a saved location then that's all I really need. Being able to navigate to a new address is really only useful if you have a passenger to input the data (unless you want to risk a fiery death), and I almost never have a passenger when I'm in my MR2. Maybe if I put one in the Millenia one day.

No, watching movies while in motion is illegal. Thats why everyone does the bypass

yes, even ipod movies. It blocks out your av input ports too.
