@chrisr:

I have yet to see an iPod interface that's worth $100 sold for any aftermarket head-unit. I have a Pioneer which is complete and utter shit. That said, it's still better than the umpteen wrecks Ive been near trying to navigate with the scroll wheel.

My Pioneer only displays the first eight characters of title text and will not scroll unless you navigate to "function 3" and hold the button. At that, it scrolls once. To change repeat/shuffle modes? Yeah, navigate to "function 2" and hold the button. To change the display from track title to album and what not? Navigate to "function 2" and press the button. Terrible.

A friend's Kenwood isn't terrible. It's actually usable as compared, but we're still talking about one line of text to navigate GBs of data. His at least displays all of the playlist names on a list if selected on his touch-lcd.
