Any Kenwood Music Keg Owners?

I just recently put a new system in my truck built around a Kenwood KDC-X889 head unit. Am thinking of picking up a Kenwood Music Keg and was looking for input from current or previous owners of the system to see what their likes/dislikes are or were.

I know that Kenwood has discontinued the Keg as of 2006 and will not be repairing any units after the factory warranty has expired on said units. That said, I can get a KHD-C710 new with 1 yr factory warranty for $190 - for that I'm willing to take the chance & try it out. Hopefully I'll love it and with luck it'll last me until something better comes out.

Please don't post saying I should buy an Ipod as I don't want to go that route - I want input on the Music Keg as my Kenwood HU would allow me to view & browse playlist's on the HU display and also control the Keg with the HU remote.

I just bought one a few days ago. Pros - tons of storage space, small enough to fit under a seat, easy hookup. Cons - took me an hour to upload 5gbs of music. Keep in mind I havent' officially used it yet, these are just my initial impressions.
