    Metra

    is marketing a line of HU made by Freeway. The Metra catalog doesn't show a Prius specific model, although Freeways Chinese website shows one. I believe Freeway is the OEM used by Rosen. These units will be carried by retailers who carry Metra products.

    Audiovox is marketing a line of OEM style Nav units under the Advent brand. They're intended to be installed by car dealers, price point around 2K. An alternative for customers who want NAV but don't want to pay for the other stuff that comes bundled with factory NAV. Prius sepcific model should be out in 2 months. A couple of poster in different forums like the unit better then the Rosen.

    Audiovox has already released at least one firmware upgrade. Support seems pretty good.
