This is commercial software. There's no such thing as getting all the bugs ironed out. Every version comes with new bugs (and some of the old bugs). Thank Microsoft for that as they set the precedent for selling product that doesn't work.

I'm implying that when the OS plays nice with the hardware, that without having to hard reset every few days like some users are already seeing within the first few days of the second generation launch.... i don't expect it to be perfect, i just don't want to havieto sit on my hands till they push out an update to fix a blank screen...

@badbwoy007

nice videos.. does it auto-dim?

Can you press a button on the steering wheel to open up Siri or OkGoogle?

Those videos have me really excited about the unit!

Grom, how's it looking for getting the last pre-orders out the door? I'm off work next week and was hoping to get everything installed while I have the time .

Just saw your post after making the video i just posted. In relation to app performance, I have about a 30 minute ride to work. I ran Youtube the whole way with no issues or crashing. It’s just like an android tablet, every now and then you will have an app that will crash. Electronics aren’t perfect. If there is something specific you want me to capture just let me know. I’m glad to share the info!

I'm not sure what you'd be looking for. He uses the apps in the video - opens them, picks radio stations, installs an app from the play store, plays a game ..... as a user for a long time, this gives you a good idea of what using it is like.

The vline2 for my 2011 Lexus GX460 I ordered arrived today. I'm hoping to have time to install it this weekend.

I pre-ordered mine on 4/15 and got it delivered on 6/22. So it took a little over 2 months.
