And you can connect to a wifi network to do that right?

I'm leaning more towards this unit the more I think about it. If it had paypal as a payment option I'd be all over it.

I got screwed for $300 once using western union buying online.
I was like you suspecting some scam but I couldn’t stand the Metra look and had to take the risk and now I am not regretting the decision but of course the choice is yours.

Yes, you can. The unit have it onboard wifi network card and I am connecting to my house’s wifi network.

I'm glad you did. Do you plan on putting a video up by any chance? I remember you mentioned once you get used to it's features you may provide one.

I guess I'll wait for a few more forumer's to jump on this.

Plus I still want to see the MyLink project through and compare for myself.

I like the look of the dash kit and not a fan of the double din. I would prefer to choose my own. Can you choose your own?

I like this radio also but I am like others on here as well and would only buy it if they accepted pay-pal but because they don't I am not going to buy it. keeping my fingers crossed that one of the vendors on here will start selling this radio.

Can it play movies while your driving? Or does it only let you do stuff while you're not moving (like the OEM unit)?

Most of the time this can be bypassed. For the head unit I have in my Suzuki all I had to do was ground a certain wire and it allowed for video playback at all times.

It's actually kind of scary that it's easy to do because it can easily contribute to distracted driving. Others require lock-pick devices or hacking.

I don't know if I would want active video playback while driving in my Camaro though so I am hoping this is like OEM.

I'm wondering if this has aux inputs other than the front, back and web cams cause I would hook up a game system from time to time.

Doesn't it say to wire it to the parking brake or something along those lines? I had an older flip out clarion unit that required it grounded to the p brake and it worked all the time. I just grounded it to any bolt I found in the dash, worked fine.
