Thanks for all your input Philly.
Too bad about the other site being a scam.
Philly (or anyone else), do you know if Philly's unit would plug and play with my OEM Bose system?
I'm in on the group buy if it can be close to the $375 of the fake one...unfortunately, unemployment checks don't go too far.

I have a unit similar to what you've posted. I love the oem look and it was plug and play.
Here's a link to the US distributor that I ordered from for $675 shipped and got it in 2 weeks.

It looks nice, but a couple of questions does it support sirius/xm or would I have to get a portable sat unit? Is there an upgrade from Windows CE5 (which is a terrible mobile os) to Windows Mobile 6 or 6.5?

To others, if this unit is legit, and is pretty much full function, comes with included accessories, and is plug and play, and uses original steering controls, AND looks OEM flush, $650 is a bargain beyond belief.

So how much would you guys be paying if you were to buy a square looking double din Pioneer/Kenwood/Alpine/Eclipse etc. in dash nav that completely sticks out from the dash?

And hanknum if you were doing fine then you wouldn't use unemployment as your excuse as to why you can't afford this. A more acceptable reason is that your current budget just doesn't allow for it. Not that a very lucky benefit you receive that partially comes from the taxes I pay goes to fund your hobby instead of putting dinner on the table for your family. But that's a different debate altogether that doesn't belong in this thread.
