The D3 is way better than the 6019.

It is a DVD based Navigation that uses two disc to cover the country and requires removal of the disc to listen to CD or DVD.
If you are using it with an IPOD Video, you must start the video thru the Ipod not the screen.

Huh, i didnt realize that you had to remove the navigation DVD to play CD's............. THAT SUCKS
So you cant listen to a CD while the NAV is on, right?

The new Kenwood DNX7100 has been released. It is the new All in one Navigation Double Din Unit. I put one in this weekend and looks great. It is using a Flash memory that is not effected by vibration and offers simultaneous full Navigation while listening to CD or DVD. It also gives you Full High Speed Ipod interface and has the ability to do Ipod video also. It also has the ability to do XM traffic information. You can also upload your own picture to use as a wallpaper on the screen.

Just checked it out. For the price, you could get the W205 and the blackbird. I think I am still gonna make the move back to Alpine. Not sure why I strayed in the first place.

Do you have the IPOD hooked up? Whats your opinion on the interface? Is it easy to navigate, find particular songs, etc.
Any pics of the screen while searching through the IPOD?

I also forgot to mention it will read Divx and has a steering wheel control wire so you can interface into steering wheel controls without having to use an infarred eye. I will take pics of it operating when I get home.

1) You mention; “It is using a Flash memory.” So, it uses an SD card to update the navigation application and database?
2) Is Garmin the OEM navigation supplier?
