And they still don't understand why people would want the unit to display A2DP info on an otherwise boring screen. Maybe they'll produce an update, but until then, pass.
I was laughing where I read that the music player spins the album art on the screen (for one of the players), and you CAN'T turn it off.
Coming to this all as a newbie I have had a hard time figuring out a good call for one of these Chinese units. Do you think the Avant 3 will work as advertised, be reliable?
2006 6MT Coupe, Alpine White • Premium, Cold Weather and Xenon packages
MFactory 3.38 LSD • 27mm M3 bar • ECS strut brace • Koni FSD's

I would have ordered an Eonon GA6150F by now if it wasn't for one major disappointment: only 1GB of RAM. All the competitors seem to have the same amount. This isn't nearly enough for an Android device, especially Lollipop.
I guess I will wait for the Avant 3 then... the promise of more RAM is definitely intriguing.
