Good job Mark & Javier. I am really happy that I took the initiative to buy the unit when it came out back in November and was able to share my little research with you guys. Thanks to FlyAudio for making this available to us. This is def the best mod I did to my car.

In the next couple of weeks we will be testing more mapping software for FlyAudio. It will be nice when these systems ship from us with multiple mapping options to choose from out of the box.

As always, we will be offering existing clients 1st dibs at any new mapping software when it is released. Hopefully I can give it out for FREE!!!

another thing to add to the next update list:

it appears that the flyaudio accepts bluetooth audio (in other words, you can send music via bluetooth to your radio for it to play without any wires), but the Flyaudio doesn't have anything that will play it back. The only spot I can find so far that allows for bluetooth audio is the phone...but that setting will not engage until you press call. So let the software developer know that there needs to be a way to access the bluetooth signal from the DVD button.

Hell, just tell them to make their code open source and we'll all knock this out in a week.

Default New Navigation software

Just an FYI, I was surfing around the FlyAudio web site and found this link http://www.flyaudio.us/forum/13-gps-...ed-for-testing. I know nothing about the software but it might be somthing else to take a look at. I'm downloading it right now (it's going to take awhile 3.6GB) to see what it looks like.

Greg you are quick. I swear, everytime they release something you find it within hours of it being released. This was designed for retailers to test out, so just be aware that there isnt any support for that solution yet. Let me know what you think though. Have a good weekend!

This should be an out of the box solution, just as the software that came with the system originally was. Hopefully this will provide another option for people if they dont like what came with it.
