OK I give up. I just dont know which nav to get. I want to be able to play movies, control IPOD, Sirrius and have nav that all functions even when I am moving. Oh and want a color back up camera. I need a double din with hopefully a 7 inch screen. Money isnt the factor here just making sure its the best. Is the Pioneer Z1 it?

Wouldn't waiting for that custom pop-up one that Toyota is coming out with as an option be a good choice, that one that integrates into the storage bin?
edit - Wow, looked at the Z1 - that is a nice unit. Better than my Esclipse AVN because of the inclusive Hard Drive. Will the Z1 play copied DVDs and CDs without throwing fits?
well then its settled I will go with the z-1. Now I got the base radio so does it come with only 4 speakers? I understand that it might be pre-wired for more?
i believe your only problem will be the hack to use the functions while moving.from what i have read you need to solder two connectors on the circuit board then if you have a warranty problem it will be null and void.
Z1 hack requires no soldering on the board. That was on the AVIC-N2. Z1 can be done with a switching module that ties into the lighting circuit that tricks it into thinking it's in a service mode allowing NAV operation/video when driving(offroad) http://www.sminntech.com/
I installed the Z1 ... couldn't be happier. Ripping CD's onto the drive is done quickly and easily. I had the Sirius module installed. It doesn't interface witht he Z1 as well as the XM unit, so now I'm considering swapping it out for XM. That's my only complaint.
