Default Eonon 7" m'media center

I guess I can't post a link to EBay, but below are a few pics. Anyone tried one? They always have a few that are "buy it now" OR best offer. I offered $170 for one, just out of curiosity, and they accepted it!!!

The more I think about it, everything comes from China anyhow

I've ordered rc electronics direct from China, and never had a bad experience, tho' the shipping is high ($44 for this radio)

I paid an extra $18 for a 2 year wrnty thru' square trade, that guarantees a repair, or full refund (not including shipping)

This is model 626, buy it now was $223....they also have a 675 model, AND a unit complete with Navigation- $499 obo....all are available as regular auctions, and buy it now/best offer.

Prob'ly too good to be true, but for the price, I found it irresistable!!
And, the feedback on these units was all good


BTW the seller is, eonon

Firstly, you CAN link to an ebay item - you cannot link to an ebay store.

B, looks very interesting. I wonder what the user interface is like?

III - probably right about if its too good to be true, but definitely let us know how your experience goes. Could be a great alternative that is cheap and worth it to a lot of us strapped with cash.

Looking forward to hearing more...

Being an IT geek I pay attention to resolution. 480 x 230 is not very good. I do not think most people would be happy with the qualtiy of the DVD playback at that resolution. I think most people these days are expecting 720ish resolutions even on a little 7" screen.
I too think many (but not all) of the 'screenshots' on the Ebay posting are photochopped in, not real screen captures. If you look at the menu based screens that's a good indicator of what to expect.
Also, I'm not sure how many colors this can handle.
Those are just guesses folks...
We should really wait for the first hand feedback before judging a product.

Looks like it could be the same unit, BUT, no best offer price. Even I wouldn't have paid that 2 of the eonons went for $150 each tonight, so I shoulda' lowered my offer. I really don't wanna' have too much in this....just in case!!

here's a link. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/626-7...0558QQtcZphoto

being able to have an in dash back up camera screen...this does have video in right? and being able to load mp3's via usb jump drive would make this worth the $ to me. I dont much care about gps or even the tv video part Would this work with the factory infinity system? Cant wait to see this installed!
