Head Units w/ rotary mp3 selection

[Scotty2Naughty 10+ year member]

I am looking for a new head unit and one of the most important things is that I can navigate through the songs better than my current Clarion db345. My friend had a higher end panasonic and he could just scroll through the mp3's and hit the button and it would play them, I would like this feature. What other head units have this. I am looking at spending around $200 or less. Please help me pick out a good head unit.

Seriously, i once had a 770mp but now i have and ALpine 9833 and the pioneer was so much easier to search thru an mp-3 disc. Alpine should really do the same in terms of easier navigation thru mp3's.

How is it easier? I just want to know as I am in the process of buying a new h/u.

Does anyone know if the Panasonic CQ-C8300 has rotary selection. It is last years model and I can get it cheap. I am comparing it to the Premier 770mp, Premier has 4v outputs, panasonic has 5v. Also a thing I liked about the Panasonic is that you can download movies and pictures to put on the display, which I don't think you can do w/ the 770. Does anyone have any input on these 2, or maybe some other suggestions?
