It's a nice unit, with lots of features.

iPod integration was ok, not as fast as the full speed units, but not unbearable. SQ is really dependent on what bitrate the songs are ripped at. I rip all my music at 192 kb/s and I can barely tell a difference between the CD and the MP3, and thats while tuning in my driveway, once you hit the road and roll a window down, it's negligible.

No true pause button, or mute button, and had to scroll through a menu to adjust the sub level, the volume went up to 62 (loudest I went was 45) so it took a while to turn the volume down when needed.

A few things bugged me enough that I wont buy another Pio till they update it (maybe next year??)

Between my 9887 and the 880, there are things that either have that I really enjoyed, but neither of them had everything I wanted, I'm happier with the 9887.

 
there is a mute and there is a pause button. at least when using a CD. there might not be a pause when using an ipod. it's been so long since i used my ipod in the car.

There are, but you have to shuffle through a menu to get to it. I want a physical button that I can press.
