New Aftermarket Radio options

Has anybody seen this yet.
A new OEM replacement for our Radios that includes IPod connection, Bluetooth, and GPS. My brother in law just gave me this link as his company just signed this line, check it out. I'm waiting for some pricing for a demo unit

Hey there,
Brakes are excellent.
Only 3 days of driving on them, but I'm already very happy with the results.
I believe this week is gonna be a good one for the Sky, warming up finally.

Interesting. However I see nothing about OnStar with this system. Does it use the standard GMOS?

Not interested in the Ipod.I see no reason to make apple richer for the garbage they throw on the market.If it had a USB port or a decent sized hardrive you would have peaked my interest.
It is good to see some alternatives though.

I believe it retains the GM stuff, like steering wheel controls and the On Star thru the system. I hope to have more details in the coming weeks, we'll see if it looks attractive enough to jump on board.

Cool, But I believe it DOES NOT support OnStar. It makes no mention in it's Tech Description and even says Navigation WITH NO MONTHLY SERVICE FEES!

Most navigation systems don't have service fees.

I wouldn't be worried about OnStar much. Although I do agree with, Gadget. I'll never own an Ipod. A hard drive would be nice for music and updating the navigation maps. Although, the bluetooth is what I'm most interested in.

Pretty cool unit. Didn't find a price anywhere, but I'm sure it's expensive.

The "Features * Specs" section says "Satellite Radio Ready"; does that mean that it will work with XM and/or Sirius? I don't see any reference to either brand on the website that was provided.

as with many Satellite radio ready recievers, you will need to buy a separate box which will attach i suppose behind the radio to have it built in, so it will cost more to get the sirius or xm

I'm waiting for details on a few issues.

I have the monsoon with XM, will my GM stock XM radio "box" work with it ??
Will the steering wheel controls still work ??
Will the On Star work thru it ??
And of course pricing.

Stay tuned for more

Looks interesting. If it works with the Steering wheel controls and retains OnStar, I'm on board depending on price. This PAL adapter I have now sucks!
