The Bluetooth is great except it wont auto answer which is a nice feature. The instructions say that some Cell phones wont sync all the way and you loose some functions. It still does all I want it to for the phone though. I dont have an Ipod so cant help you with that question. Its does have connection for that along with an SD card and USB input along with 2 other video inputs. I also has rear camera option which I installed and love! When you put it in reverse, the screen pulls out automatically and then retracts when you put it in drive. The screen also retracts when you shut off the car. Like I said on the Gogo software, I think its better than my Garmin and love the TTS. I bought it locally in case theres a problem with it, I can return it with no hassle. You do have to buy the radio antenna adapter for it (#12040EU10 with no Nav) because ours is Euro plug. Got it at Crutchfield. I also got the wiring harness (Metra 70-1786) that intergrates with the current amp and speakers. I was happy with the sound of the speakers and didnt want to pry open my door panels. It sounds great to me! I mostly got it for the Bluetooth and GPS. And Thank god I got away from that CD skipping Infinity! Hated that! The DVD movie part is great also! Crisp picture and great color! The touchscreen is really responsive also! Do not have to press hard at all!
