Just wondering if this is any good at all?
I want one for complete use with my Ipod touch.
Does any1 also know if i use this with my Ipod touch will the dvd screen actually become like my ipod touch?

its a sweet piece of kit mate, and will def control the standard style ipod, but im not sure about the touch, as it works off different firmware. i sell hifis at work that have the ipod control feature, but it wont work the the touch or iphone.you would need a program to emulate the touch's layout i'd imagine which could only possibly work on a carputer.

Ok cool, i guess its still an awesome headunit. Good price?
Also would it be able to link up to my 12.2" sunvisor/monitors?

yup. its got one video output... guess itll probably be composite video out. all you'll have to do is buy a splitter adapter and then link it to your sun visors. i wouldnt personally pay the money for it mate, cos i can custom make one from scratch for half the price lol... but i saw something similar the other day for double the price, so it seems like a good deal. And clarion stuff is guaranteed to be a winner!
