There's also the JVC KD-AVX1 or, if you can live wthout WMA support,
Sony's MEX-R1 and R5.


I'd forgot about the JVC - looks like a cool unit, mate just got one for
his car.

All the people on the floor they shake their bodies cry for more.
Never let this feeling go and let the music take control.
Forget your problems and be free,
Enjoy this moment, come with me!


The JVC one is pretty good, the dvd screen is suprisingly larger than you
would imagine and because you are so close to it it seems bigger than it is.

The only problems I have with mine a-

* You can NOT fast forward or rewind within an MP3 file. Normal cd files
are fine.
* The DVD playback has VERY limited control from the unit. Only with the
remote can you do things like pause or zoom or things like that.
* It takes a while to read whatever disk is placed in it. With my old
Alpine, you placed the CD in and it would play within seconds. It can take
up to 10 seconds to work out what disk it is and what type it is and start
to play.

However, the menu system is pretty good and in the dark its good to look at.
