Good concept with teething

Parrot Asteroid Smart PF370004AA V3.0 Bluetooth multimedia system (15.7 cm (6.2 inch) display, WiFi, USB, Android 1.5) for Apple iPod / iPhone (optional)

Customer Review

Have decided the friendly shop for Parrot instead of Kenwood.

My search criteria to the unit were:

Music (SD, USB), iPod Connectivität, calls with good quality address data acquisition by older mobile phones (E52), Navi with map updates, touch screen operation. Less sound because the wife's car has only 4 standard speakers. Therefore, I can give only limited information on the HiFi quality.

I found the idea of ​​actually buying a computer Android, pretty cool. Most nerves namely the devices that are cheap and then get no map updates, or FW upgrades more.

Calls absolutely clear. Parrot halt. (Ext. Micro is supplied)
Music Equalizer outdated but still a lot out of sound from the standard Lautsprechenr
Voice-activated dialing the acquired Tel numbers is possible, even if the phone does not have voice control (my Nokia E52).
Bluetooth Audio Streaming
Internet access via WiFi (eg iPhone Personal Hotspot) possible.
It can be coupled simultaneously 2 phones

In addition to the normal applications and operation, has shown me that the seller nor his own device. But since I have been amazed what you can do with that thing and a little IT Kent Nissen. Basically you can draufladen all possible apps.

FAT [B] But be careful: it is not be supported and lead to warranty problems, Anyway is not a must. [/ B]

Where light is unfortunately also shadow:

Was on my SD card no iGO navigation software available. Have complained that the support.
As long runs an alternative.

I must agree because my speakers.

Problems with sound (no sound) when the umpteenth use.

Radio quality is not the best

Device remembers neither source nor the location of last playback.

Device does not automatically switch on the ignition. One has only to the Music app -> source -> and then goes off. Actually, a no-go for a car audio !!!!!
Lt. Support shall these things be remedied by zukünftge SW upgrades) I hope !!!

Parrot has its own App Store with just a few shared apps !!! Previously inform !!! [...]
As I said, the Play Store is NOT running !!!!
Installing apps from SD card is possible. APK files go after that or not go. But can be deleted again.

If the teething problems are eliminated, I do not 5 star value. But look mer times

EDIT: 09/04/2013

So, there is some time passed and there was now 3 Firmware Updates:

The annoying restarting the Music app is resolved. Plays of the last source continued.
Various snacks are also gone.

For details on the Parrot USA page -> Release Notes.

Unfortunately, neither Parrot still TOMTOM has felt responsible to leave me the Navi software coming that was not on the SD card.
A pushing it to the other. Service Nirvana !!!!!

Am still excited and increase of 4 1/2 stars. Top a bit of air must still be.
