Thinking of the empeg as more than a headunit has thus far resulted in a non-intuitive user interface and inconsistant operation between various functions.

If anything, the majority of the problems are with the remote and/or buttons - trying to "navigate" in the car is impossible. You have to press at least 4 or 5 buttons just to select a playlist, the same amount to set random.

So, instead of dreaming about what the empeg might be capible of, I figure it would be more productive to make the current function - playing MP3s - easy to do while driving...
