bought the nav panel from honda for $35, used a new accord wiring harness, and the plate the came with the radio(trimmed up a bit) it's supported by a somewhat modified bracket, local stereo shop did it since i was hearing about all the problems but they said it wasn't that hard at all. ipod is hooked up through the factory plug.

volume knob small?! LMAO i don't like the look of the radio because the volume knob is FREAKIN HUGE. But i had a AVIC D3 and the volume knob on it was about 1/3 the size of that one.
myspace page is rehkopf*

finally! sorry it took so long for much anticipated pics and for the pics on myspace instead of fitfreak, stupid computer!!! i did get the update from pioneer for free, bootup is only a few seconds. bluetooth works great(mic is up by my rear view mirror), nav has a dudes voice, volume knob is a little small, not that big of a deal (unless a put an aggressive spring rate drop on it, then might get a little annoying) xm is hooked up, antenna is mounted under the windshield wiper plastic (still very good reception) btw was factory no nav. dvds look and sound really good even with stock speakers (dolby digital) haven't messed with the sd card or usb yet
Is it ok to assume that this will have no problems playing off a usb thumb drive? I refuse to buy any ipod-type products

well if i was you i would go with the AVIC F90P because the differnce in quality is a night and day. Do yourself a favor and save the extra 300 or whatever. because you don't have to pay 1000 or 1100 what ever people are trying to charge. And its just not worth it to jip yourself like that and go with the 4000. trust me i'm speaking from experience. Also check this
Or you can get the metra peices
Metra
Wiring harness - 70-1729
Antenna adapter - 40-HD10
However you still would need to ghetto rig the bracket until a better kit can be made by metra. Some are saying number 99-7898 metra kit works too. As a kit to hold the radios. Not real sure on it tho.

All GPS receivers use satellites. Here's a link to the spec sheet which may help answer your question: Pioneer USA - In-Dash Navigation

All GPS use satellites. That doesn't mean that they get the map data from the satellites.

Does this avic f90 get the map data from satellites?
i know on the specs sheet it says flash memory, but i am not quite sure what that means.

HowStuffWorks "How GPS Receivers Work"
Flash memory is memory that can be electrically erased and reprogrammed. More information about this here:
Flash memory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The F90 stores map data on flash memory. This allows map data updates by simply overwriting these areas directly, as opposed to buying an expensive new DVD after years of development.
