Pioneer AVIC-F500BT add on to OEM Audio-anybody have any info?
Pioneer AVIC-FT
Pioneer’s AVIC-F500BT GPS: voice control iPods & Bluetooth cellphones - SlipperyBrick
Anybody has any more info on this unit?
It is intended for individuals that prefer to keep their OEM audio intact and use audio input in OEM unit to connect this as an add on.
It is a NAV unit as well as Ipod interface capable of adding more music to it by the means of SD card or USB portable devices/hard drives.
It also provides A/V inputs for back up camera or video sources of your choice. Bluetooth feature allows for cell phone integration (welcome news considering laws are changing to prevent you from holding a cell phone and driving - much needed law I might add considering idiots out there on the road!).
Best of all entire unit is transferable from car to car and removable so you do not find your window busted or car stolen in the morning!
Please provide some info if you have it.

Jimmy, thanks for linking it!
I just browsed and found them myself.
One thing I do not like about 700 and 900 model is integrated DVD drive since it adds about 7 inches to unit depth from original 1 inch or so!
That makes it awkward to integrate into already packed OEM dash.
On the Fit we would either need to relocate OEM head unit or loose cup holders up front. Maybe that is why '09 has 10 of them. You can loose half and not even feel it!

The F500BT will be shipping in June. It's a pretty powerful little device; a portable unit that is able to be installed and interface with a car's existing sound system. They'll even have an optional 4ch amp available.
Here's an image of the hookups, should give you an idea of what this thing is able to do.
