    Just to clarify, the CAN-Bus decoder is built-in like swyner said so all steering wheel controls etc work out of the box. Where you may (but also may not) need an external module is if they crack the MFD phonebook function.

    You can't buy iGo for WinCE individually, only Sygic as I've linked to in the first post. However, iGo with maps all around the world are floating out there available for download in many forums, if any of you outside Australia needs some guidance just PM or email me.

    The DNS did turn out more similar to ANS than I originally expected in the software, since the delays meant they are going to push several features as future updates instead. But other than speed, there are still many improvements like much better radio signal, updated SD / USB music functions (though not quite the full library browse-able by artist / album etc that will come as an update), updated video capabilities, revised software menu to look more OEM, memory function in BT (will have to show that in the next video) etc.

    I'm as disappointed as many of you that some features didn't make it through the initial release but at this stage after this much delay, they need to fix the bugs and release the unit, not wait till they get every new feature in order - many will not be able to wait for that long.

    The mirroring module may turn out to be cheap enough for me to absorb the cost, but if not I would push Audiosources to provide a batch to this group buy at least at cost price, since it was their promise and should be their responsibility.

    As for other external modules, there are still the OBD2 and trip recorder ones to come, but they were always going to be external modules. Other than the mirroring function, as far as I am aware there are no promised software features that will now need a module to operate.

    Thanks Sandy for the clarification. Could you demo the iPod integration on the next video? I'm particularly interested in the scrolling/searching functionality since that is pointless/unavailable on my oem unit.

    So far for the next video could we see:
    1) iPod functionality
    2) BT phone and music streaming functionality both on the unit and MFI
    3) filmed in the day light this time so we can see the unit vs the night time video you took (which was great to see the red button colours)

    I think these were the only features left out of the first one. Appreciate it Sandy. Also I sent you an email and PM could you get back to me?

    If any north American folk needs maps, lmk via pm. I just found 2012 north American maps online that I can send the link to obtain, it's 2gigs in size fyi.... love the igo software and how easy it is to update the maps, just drag and drop the maps folder to the content folder and done.

    I hope so. I'm planning on hooking up an SSD to mine with all my music and movies on it.

    Thanks, yes you already mentioned that before. I only asked because I couldn't see any option for choosing AUX on the video.
