Since they are passing a "hands free" law here in NH on July 1st you can longer even have any data capable device in your hand anymore.  When i bought the X910 and X930 i had gotten them off ebay for around $450 each brand new. It seems Pioneer has a lot more models out now such as the App Radio and there standard units.  

 

What you guys recommend? I would like something with Carplay if Pioneer offers it(about to start looking) If not, is the App Radio worth it or should i just stick to there regualar series of NAV systems with ipod functionality?

 

 

Thanks

 

*EDIT* 

Just looked, they do have carplay which is great, but 11 models to choose from...

Looks like I'll probably go with the 7100NEX.  Also, whats that site everyone gets, or used to get there factory harness to Pioneer adapter from? 

 

Thanks

If you apply the x940 update to your x930, it's then a full on Appradio device and fully controllable from the head unit, you still need to plug your phone in but you can hide it away somewhere.

 

Seems a shame to get rid of your current unit if you haven't tried it's full potential.  What apps are you interested in? most are pretty bad.
