NO, the non-Premier headunits of that year (8600, 9600) did NOT have network mode. The 860 and 960 did. Even though the 960 was ugly with that (sometimes functioning) double face.Someone already mentioned the p860mp. I didn't know the 8600 had 3-way. Another one is the JVC KD-AR8500
Also, when is Pioneer going to make a new 9xx model.? This is like the 3rd year the 980 has been the top model. Well, if you wanna call it a top model that is. The 880 and the 800 are far better units.
