Do not get me started on a Mortal Kombat rage story between two of my friends way back involving one of them shouting out an attack while throwing the controller.

Yeah, used to play all those fighting games but me and my friends were really obsessed with street fighter. We had been playing for about 4 hours and I hadn't won a match for about 2 hours. Thumb was getting sore so I couldn't pull off the finger roll for dragon punch anymore. After a while of the game not doing the moves I thought I was telling it to do I got a little mad. Took the controller out on the back patio at 1am and smashed it. Woke my parents up too.

Why is it that I get a image of FPS Doug smashing the controller with a sledge? Haha, I am sure that was entertaining though.

The issue of me not finding the perfect HU! I was so sold on that Pioneer ZB110BT but I just found out how retarded this company is. It's their top of the line unit, I just love the look of it, the customizable UI and everything. BUT it can only support up to 16 gigs (~500) files from USB.... They put Voice activation in this thing and even the option to change the light color behind the interface to any color you want BUT THEY CANNOT SUPPORT MORE THAN 500 Files.... O and no support for Disc changer or Remote control....even though I will not need support for remote or changer its still the principle of the matter.

I am certain this is an issue with software since they switched OS (which is a great thing since their Windows CE was a POS) but that means my 64 gig Touch might as well be a 16 gig.

I dunno, I am trying to find a unit that looks nice like this, has most if not all the features and does not have major design flaws in it. I was looking at the Infill G4 carputer but not sure on it atm.

EDIT : A Rage Hit protector is not a required feature in my case

16Gb is way more than 500 music files. Are you encoding your mp3's at 320kbps or something??

I am pulling this information from many places, esp some from people that have taken a 250 gig HD to a store and set it up to this unit to try it out. What ever is limiting the USB you cannot get ALL your music files or video files, w/e it is if you have over 16 gigs. Thats why I said ~500.

I am not sure myself and am trying to find a place here that carries this unit so I can test it out myself. It's just almost perfect for what I am looking for it just...fails in the fact it lacks some very basic things.

I can vouch. I have roughly that many but am using my iPod for some movies as well that are a lot bigger.

I do have 320kbps mp3's I like the added clarity, however I am sure you still fit over 2000 of them on 16gb.

Well apparently it will work perfectly with any iPod and ALL of its memory. Going to be back home this weekend so I will take my 64gig touch and test it out on a unit they have at Best buy.

64gigs is plenty enough memory storage for me, but like I said, it's their flagship top of the line unit and the just odd design flaws astound me.

Also to topic, to all car dealers, do NOT let Stefalicious test drive your car. That goes double for anyone letting her drive you car...unless your wanting to collect insurance.
This Thread Delivers!

Well I ordered that Pioneer and it should be here within a week or so. Once I get it installed I can post a review with a possible vid if anyone is interested.

It will be a week or so, I may end up driving 2 hours back home for the weekend then put it in. But I will get it when I get it. It is not a perfect unit but I found out none of them are, shame really but I'll state my purpose of why I got it and then tack on everything else later.
