Question Need opinions on picking out a double din radio

Hello all,
I'm in the market for a double din radio and wanted some options on which to get. I'm a Pioneer fan by nature but wanted to try and get a feel on what every one has to offer.

Features it needs...
*(no GPS) - I already have on that sticks on the dash, no point of jacking up the radio price to add a feature i already have.
*Bluetooth
*ipod control (control from headunit) - i wanna leave the ipod in the glove box and forget about it.
*USB port
*customizable screens
*DVD playback would be cool too!

It doesnt have to be brand new either, i love saving money!

So far I found this...
AVH-P4000DVD



opinions...

i just picked up a pioneer f700bt. it DOES have GPS but if thats not a make or break deal for you, i strongly suggest it. alot of others just look cheesy to me. has bluetooth, usb cable, sd card slot in the front, ipod ready and has a KICKASS Ipod display!

this isnt in my car but this is the deck with ipod display!

the only thing about the f700bt, is the bootup time. but i just did the 3.0 update on mine and it only takes like 30 seconds. everything is in flash memory so thats why it takes so long. no navi discs or anything, its all right there for you
