If you’ve been waiting for an Alpine head unit that you can control just like your iPod, this is it. Menus that are navigable exactly like the iPod. All search options just like the iPod, ability to view album art as you would on the iPod and fast song selection as quick as the iPod.
While it "ticks the boxes", it leaves a lot to be deired.

Strength
It works, somewhat.
Weakness
Dozens of faults and problems.
Bottom Line
Please Alpine, at least test your product a -little bit- before you release it.
