While it's neat looking, it seems to just be a fancy mount and nothing else. I do like the mount though so I'll give him props for that.

I agree. It is a creative idea, however for the price of the unit, etc., I would rather have a NAV/DVD system that connects my IPOD in the glove box. That way I get all the other cool stuff a NAV system offers in addition to the IPOD.

HUH? So it rings and you answer it most people have a hands free kit these days. Here in Abq it's mandatory if you are driving.
