    Thanks for following up. At least it's cheaper than the Avin 2 was, but still a pretty penny. I'm still looking forward to your review on your Xtrons head unit.

    I got the same email that BP rcvd. I am vacillating between this unit and the XTrons. Especially considering I will likely buy two if they are any good.

    I am itching to find out about this from real-world users, will have to wait a little while longer.

    Based on the other AVIN units I have seen on YouTube (I-drive replacements), they have quite a polished custom UI over the base Android OS. That combined with the fact that they ostensibly have made this unit look nearly identical to the OEM navi is a huge value-add to me.

    If this unit is reliable and polished, then it's potentially worth the extra premium for me.

    However, the hardware specs are exactly the same as the Xtrons unit I just purchased for $350, which is almost half the price of the Avin unit.
    So which Xtrons did you get, the PB7646BP? It looks to have gone up.

    Is there a thread on your experience with it. I've not had any experience with these aftermarket units.

    If anything, it has gotten cheaper... it's now $309 with free Prime 2-day shipping!

    No, I'm slacking... I keep meaning to write a review on it, but I'm too anal to write up something quick. I have to take lots of pics and review every aspect of it to meet my standards. I'm lazy. lol

    It's still on the to-do list.

    I guess I searched the wrong thing at Amazon. At that price I'm tempted especially if your happy. I've been watching the Avin story unfold. I have a deposit with them but never got a notification, I stumbled across some forum posting alerting me to the Avant 3 release. Now I'll have to figure out which E46 will be the guinea pig.
