Ok if the D105 is newer why is it cheaper. Here are the links to specs and price etc. Thanks, Andrew

I want to know which will be better for me, and which one is a better HU. I will be running the H-701 //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Off the top, the screen is the largest difference. d310 is 7", d105 is 6.5". Also, the 105 has dvd-audio capability in addition to faster ipod integration. Having said all of that, I still like my d310 more because of the aesthetics.

If you're using a processor, you've essentially made the processing capabilities equal. Now you just have to decide if you want the larger screen. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

$100 for a larger screen and better aesthetics but not as good ipod...tough choice cause i really would like to get my ipod in my car...

Well, as long as your ipod is cleaned up pretty well, you can do what I did: Make multiple playlists. I have playlists for every letter (i.e.: "a", "b", etc) and for certain artists where I have ALOT of songs by them I have an individual playlist. It makes it easier to find, and quicker.

I chose my d310 over the w200 because I just like the size more.

I was wondering myself but assume they were the same:

D105 resolution: 280,800 pcs (1,200 x 234)

D310 resolution: 336,960 pcs (480 x 234 x 3)
