I was pretty surprised that no one has posted any pictures on the net of their JVC KV-PX9 GPS. The BN in the part number refers to the color of the plastic. The silver one has different letters at the end. The most helpful reviews of the JVC GPS can be found on http://www.crutchfield.com/. Other than that the reviews I saw did not impress me and were negative overall. I think this mainly is to blame on people inexperience with GPS systems.

When I opened the box I was pretty happy to see how small it actually is. This is a good thing since it's going to be stuck to the glass and in your face. As long as you have decent eye sight then you will be fine with the screen size and resolution. All the GPS units under $500 have 3in x3in screens. I think 4-5in would be perfect but it's just not worth it unless you are traveling a lot. Then you might as well buy a cd/dvd player with GPS built in like the Eclipse models.



First are the dimensions:


The JVC eAvinu snaps on and off of the base very quickly:
