The Pros:Good interface with the iPod, offers full access. Navigation system is top-end, responsive and gives great directions. Lots of expansion options for extra features.
The Cons:Doesn't work with the iPhone, can't make calls through it. Reading MP3s from a USB storage device is slow and a little buggy.

It holds two USB connections for iPods and other players and incorporates iPod direct control into its system allowing iPod videos and music to be played through it. Like others in the eXcelon family, the KVT-819DVD has a graphical user interface and lets the consumer customize the skin that is used. This sort of personal touch shows that the makers had the user firmly in mind. Though it doesn't include them, the system is navigation ready and can be hooked up to a separately bought back-up camera.
