Awesome unit and using a SD memory card I stored about 60 music cd's on it that I play through my stereo via the accessory jack.
Didn't think about that. sounds good! I think i'm going to pick up a basic Garmin (255w perhaps, or something along those lines) with the text-to-speech (which i find necessary) and hardwire it somehow. I thought about going double-din Kenwood but honestly i don't really need the fuss of having a screen out for others to see when i am parked (thats why i like the cubbyhole). Too many worries already driving a Z, don't need another one =)
