Alpine CDA-9887 Bluetooth?

Hey guys, I've recently been considering buying myself a Bluetooth adapter for my head unit. I was just wondering if anyone can shed some light on this adapter for me. I know how it works and how much it costs, I'm only concerned with the quality of it because I've heard some really crappy Bluetooth quality from alot of my buddies head units that have the built in Bluetooth.

the only bluetooth unit from Alpine worth owning right now is the one built into the new black bird combined with either the W205 or 505. ALL the others are terrible. nothing but complaints from customers.. Alpine claims they're coming out with a separate modual to fix their crappy units, but who knows when.

I have both the IVAW205 with blackbird and a CDA9887 with KCE300BT BT adapter. There is no difference in sound between the 2 when using the bluetooth. The only complaint I've heard of on the KCE300BT is a buzzing sound coming from the ipod (which doesn't affect me as I don't use an ipod much).
