Rating  - Pioneer DEH-P5000UB
This is a very good In-Dash unit for the money. Good sound quality on stock speakers and looks OEM. The multifunction knob takes a little getting used to but not finding it a headache.
Rating - Confusing user interface / instructions
I think many reviewers have noted that this unit has a confusing user interface. This would not be such a problem if the owner's manual did a better job of explain the basic model behind how controls work - e.g., when to use the escape key to go back or the multi-function knob. The interface seems inconsistent and non-intuitive (ok, any new way of controlling a device is non-intuitive, and that is when a good manual can help educate.)
Over all I am pleased with the unit. I wish there was one more brightness level to lower to, the blue LED are bright! The iPod interface works well with the iPod Touch - you can control from the head unit or the iPod itself. My kids love the ability to use the iPod in back of the car. The USB cable is long enough for my Honda CRV. I was disappointed that they did not include an extension cable for the AUX in, which is located in the rear of the unit - so you need one if you plan on ever using the AUX in jack with a friend's music player.
Rating - Not every USB device works with this receiver
I bought this receiver a few weeks ago, and unless I am doing something wrong (very possible), you can only seek tracks within a folder(For the iPod). E.G.: say I am listening to the White Stripes Icky Thump, well, you can only skip songs within that album, say I want to listen to De Stijl, I have to unplug my iPod, go to that album, press play, and then it will work. Also, I bought a Western Digital Passport 250gig external hardrive, and even after reformatting it to FAT32, it would not work with this unit. Other than that, everything is cool, I just don't understand why I can't navigate in and around my iPod from the receiver's controls.
