i can't say which one is better. to each his own. i think it's very similar with cars. my mercedes is better than your bmw or my lexus is better than your infiniti and so on. only reason i'm not a fan of apple is proprietary. you can't be flexible like others but i guess that's why and how they become the most powerful company in the world and also reached their all time high, $700, earlier this morning.

Samsung Nexus is good just because Samsung stole Apple ideas and implemented in it. Now Samsung should pay for this steal about a billion $, however as a consumer you got a good device.

Anyone come up with something yet? I've been searching for an answer to this without much luck. Hopefully someone has found a way to do this by now.

the internet function is a joke IMO.
as said by others; far easier to use the phone.
The only nice thing is internet radio, though it sometimes takes ages
to connect and/or reconnect when signal lost.
but think this is mainly a problem on the iPhone side (hotspot),
as a hard reboot often fixes any connection problems.
on the other hand, you might as well stream internet radio from a phone app to the car,
so in the end I don't really see any advantage in having internet in the car...?

Is there any advantage to upgrade the unit from 4 to 4.5?
I don't have bluetooth streaming. I presume the hardware would be faster.
One of my pet peeves is when I'm playing a compact disc the info is slow to load. Why they have not gone to solid state is surprising..
