I originally purchased the JVC KW-AV50 from Crutchfield, but then discovered that the AV60 also supported App Link's via my iPod and/or iPhone. So, I took the plunge and purchased the AV60 from Kings here on Amazon.The radio has a great display, it supports SiriusXM, which I also purchased the tuner. It supports Pandora, MOG, Tune In, iHeart Radio and Motion X Drive Navigation all from within the radio itself. The video rather DiVX or iTunes looks great. I really love that I can set whatever color I want for the buttons and even customize the display itself.Overall I am very happy with this radio. If you are in the market this is a great one!By the way using Motion X Drive on your iPhone allows you to navigate anywhere and the list of points of interest is so up to date, Garmin can't touch this. Totally love this feature.Hope this helps someone decide!UPDATE: 3/26/12Today out of the blue this radio restarted. I have made sure all connections are secure. Will continue to monitor the situation. I will likely be contacting JVC about this. I see a firmware update on their web site, but states its for Bluetooth.UPDATE 3/30/12Contacted JVC about the restarting issue, they asked me to verify which version of the software my head unit was running, I checked and the version was 1.01. The person directed me to a link to version 1.05 and told me to install this following the update instructions in the user manual. I downloaded the file and you will need a flash drive to do a software update; I copied the files to the flash ran the update. It took about 10 minutes, then you must do a hard reset. I did this on 3/26/12 and thus far the head unit has not restarted again. The usual pattern was that it would restart during use at least once or twice a day. It has now been 4 full days without a single restart. If it should happen again I will report back.I want to say that each day that I use this head unit, I love it more and more. The JVC KW-AV60 is one great head unit! I highly recommend it! Much better than Pioneers App Radio!UPDATE 3/17/13I've had this head unit for a year. Still love it as much as the day I got it. In fact I've decided to buy another one for a 2nd car. I had considered getting a newer model, but for some reason the JVC KW-AV61 doesn't support MOG that I can see. I sent email to JVC and they told me it currently doesn't support MOG and a few other Apps that the original AV60 supported. This is because they added some compatibly for the iPhone 5 and iPod Touch 5th Gen. I have an iPhone 5, but this just isn't a big enough draw to convince me to get the newer model. Besides this older version has an open box special for a little over $200.

My personal "Must Have" features:Volume knob - safer to use than buttons without diverting driver attention from the road.Large clock display (eyes are getting old and don't want to wear reading glasses to drive).Can play MP3 files from USB drive (or SD card). This is how I use it most of the time.My personal "Nice to Have" features:Detachable front panel (installed in a convertable).DVIX / XVID video playback from disk and USB (or SD).PROsHas all of the "must have" and "nice to have" features listed above (except SD card slot).Extensive suite of operator settings - extremely customizable.12 band user-adjustable equalizer.User-adjustable main and subwoofer crossovers with graphic display.Attractive display with complete set of image adjustments for various inputs.CONsTends to lose its user settings memory about once a week and must be re-programmed.Poor JVC customer support/service (see text below).Remote instead of panel-mounted USB jack, requires custom mounting.No SD card slot.Slow initial boot and USB MP3 track read/access times compared to the PioneerAVH3200BT installed in my truck (see below):. . . . Receiver . . . . . . . . . . . KW-AV60 . . . AVH3200BTBoot time to FM radio . . . . . . . . 15 sec . . . . 5 secBoot time to MP3 track on USB . . . 30 sec . . . . . 8 secMP3 track-to-track delay . . . . . . . 5 sec . . . . less than 1 secMP3 folder-to-folder delay . . . . . . 8 sec . . . . . 1 secNote: all times measured with the identical 8G USB drive with 2G actually used.I contacted Pioneer support; they are aware of the memory reset problem and have afirmware update to fix it. However, unlike the experience of another reviewer, theyrefused to allow me access to the new firmware file, insisting instead I send theunit to the factory and pay $75 for the privelege of having their tech install theupdate (for which instructions are in the manual). Plus I would have to payshipping both ways, so the "Fix" effectively costs more than $100. I'll live withthe occasional re-entering of user settings.
