Default Head unit with USB and Bluetooth?

Is there any manufacturer out there that makes a head unit with USB compatibility and Bluetooth hands free calling?

The closest thing I could find was a head unit with one feature but I have to buy the other feature seperately.

Help!

I am not sure about USB.....I think only Sony has a USB capability, and that is on the Giga-Panel series, but I dont think its Bluetooth. I will check....

I know some DVD units have both (Eclipse), but that would require cutting the dash.

Just checked.....Sony MEX-1GP has a USB capability, but no bluetooth. Alpine, Pioneer, and Kenwood all have (or will have within the year) bluetooth add-on's, so Sony will most likely have one in the near future as well.

To the best of my knowledge no headunit right now has BOTH!

USB I think only the Sony deck has that for uploading music.

Eclipse AVN5495 is a double din unit I have in my s2000 and that has the Sony Magic-gate stick interface for music playback but that is a costly deck.

Bluetooth the new Pioneer Z1 double din deck comes to mind and works great but again it's going to be VERY VERY expensive to retrofit into the s2000 plus the deck is $2500


So no deck has the combo of all the features you are asking about at a reasonable price.

I already mentioned that Blaupunkt, clarion.,jvc, kenwood, piooner all have USB access, not just sony.


But guess what???????????

Blaupunkt makes a unit or 2 that has both!

I belive they are the Memphis and the St. Louis.
Im gonna check them out soon and hopefully buy em.
