I carefully looked at all the Pioneer units, in fact that's where I started. In the end, it came down to the fact that Pioneer doesn't have a double-DIN unit that plays DVDs on its own. Furthermore, all reports state that the iPod interface (which got me on this sordid road) sucks like you wouldn't believe. DVD was somewhat important, but iPod is of utmost importance. Plus I didn't want a single-DIN flippy screen like the N2.
I've gotten a fairly cheap XM receiver (on eBay again) that has a line-out. XM has NHL and MLB, my main two sports. That pretty much swayed my decision towards XM. I know Sirius has NHL as well, but that's only the next two seasons. I (think I am going to be) very happy with the Xm receiver I've gotten.
that makes sense. personally, i prefer the stand-alone XM units to the integrated ones. i used to have a pioneer tuner hooked up to my old pioneer HU, but once i got a roady (and now MyFi), i never looked back. portability is much nicer than integrated HU controls, IMO.
