 Loving my F90BT after 2.0 update frim Pioneer!!!! November 7, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Pioneer just released another update, 2.0
it fixes a lot of little bugs that weren't fixed with the first update. And dramatically improves the boot time. If the unit has been updated to 2.0 it will have an orange dot on the box now instead of a blue one. Or you can download the update and install it yourself from Pioneer. Highly recommended !!!
Incredible piece of kit! November 5, 2008

Picked up an AVIC-F90BT about 3 months ago with the "blue dot" 1.2 firmware. Boot time was longer than I expected, but manageable. Bluetooth with my iPhone works flawlessly, the navigation works as advertised, and the iPod control is a piece of art. Video playback via iPod Classic works great, as does DVD playback.
A huge feature that seems to go unmentioned is AVIC Feeds, which allows you to send map searches from Google Maps to an SD card (on your computer). Take the SD card, plug it into the front slot on the F90BT, and your location shows up as a point in your GPS - brilliant! Almost makes the need to purchase map updates obsolete. It also allows you to build and manage a POI database and favorites via the SD card.
The 2.0 firmware just came out a few days ago (it's 11/4/2008) and it dramatically improves the boot time (+35% faster), touch-screen response is improved, and a plethora of other tweaks are included.
I paid $1200 for this unit installed at a high-end local car audio dealer and don't regret it one bit. For the price being asked for on Amazon, this thing is a steal. Highly recommended. Best in-dash A/V navigation unit on the market. Technically it's a miniature computer, BTW!

This system has several issues, poor map color, very small map display. Touch screen slow. In order to recive MSN and have HD raido and Sirus, you must have spliter on you Antenna. Limit on GPS info. Over all very poor.
 On the fence September 15, 2008

I've been really on the fence with this system. I love all the selling points of a GPS, MP3, Bluetooth and DVD, but it has some really disappointing downsides.
I go back and forth on whether or not I should take the system back and just have my factory stereo put back in (but who can go back when you've had something like this?). Sometimes I'm so incredibly frustrated and other times, I just simply love this system. I wish I could have researched it more, but I got it when it was brand new so no one had any reviews up. So here's the long of it (and YES I have the most recent firmware update):
-GPS works great expect for the orientation of the screen (if you are going south, the arrow points down... going north, arrow points out - can be very disorienting). I love being able to type in an address and have your system not only direct you, but having several options being directed (knowing the speed limit of where you are, approximate time to destination and/or next step, etc).
-DVD function works well too. Technically you have to have the parking brake on to have it work, but its a simple connector issue you can easily bypass. I take a lot of roadtrips with friends and my boyfriend, so I had it bypassed. It is incredibly dangerous to have it bypassed and a lot of places won't even bypass it for you, so use your best judgment.
-MP3, for some reason the place I got this thing installed told me I had to buy a connector to get it to work with an ipod. I thought it would work with the usb/ipod connector I bought at apple, but apparently not. Or they were just trying to rip me off ($75 they said, I said sell it to me for $20 or I was just going to return the whole damn thing completely). I love the MP3 player. It could be more accessible having the controls on the LEFT side of the screen rather than the RIGHT side. Plus, it operates with the standard ipod controls and menus, which are limiting at times. But it shows album cover art and if you have an ipod video, it plays your vids.
-Bluetooth has been touch and go for me lately. At first it totally worked with my LG enV. Tonight it wouldn't connect at all. Not sure if its a phone issue or a unit issue. But the sound is clear, people can hear you well and it saves your contacts. The bad thing is, because its touch screen, your finger might wrongfully choose a contact and before you know it, you are calling the wrong person. Sometimes the hangup glitches and I've experienced a few times where it wouldn't even call even when it was connected. Really annoying. I hope a fireware update fixes these bugs.
Other things...
Since I have a Mazda 3, they had to remove my clock because the double dec got in the way. Well, the lack of clear and readable clocks drives me nuts. I absolutely can't stand how small and unreadable the clock is either when its in audio mode or map mode. HATE IT.
Start up is slow, I have yet to try turning off the VC but I will. Still, 20 seconds even after you fix the default setting? Lame! You have no idea how much you miss your music when getting your journey started. Its a long time!
The touch screen is sometimes really finicky. If there is a bug or a glitch, the system can lag when you touch a button. Or sometimes you have to be really careful with how precise your aim is for a button.
The radio preset is really annoying. Again, why have the buttons on the RIGHT side of the console? So weird and awkward.
I feel like this system would really benefit from a remote controller. My arm is so tired from pressing so many things.
I wish the unit focused more on the audio and even the presentation. Its so bland and boring when its rife with cool possibilities like a screen saver with a clock on it (please... next firmware update have a BIGGER CLOCK accessible!! I'm dying here!). I'm really looking forward to the next update, but I'm worried it won't satisfy its deficiencies. When you spend this much on a fully loaded system, I know it won't be perfect, but some things are just really difficult to deal with. If I can really get the start up time down to 5 seconds, I'll be a really happy camper and just glue a clock to my dash.
potential to be great September 11, 2008

i just installed the f90bt to days ago. Its a great system the sound quality is crisp and clear the audio setting allow you to tune the radio however you please. the screen is clear and crisp. the problems with it are with its software though. The unit takes forever to load and you cannot change the song while it is loading. The bluetooth connectivity is giving problems pairing with my blackberry curve but works with a a sprint samsung no problem. One last problem i am having is with the voice command because to activate it u have to push the button down while keeping it centered or else it will change the track and if you hold it a certain way it will mute the audio. Overall its a great system but like the z1 it has kinks to work out before it is flawless. I have the new update of the software but it still need to add a few more things to it.
