Default Has anyone used/seen the Alpine KTX-MTG8?

Link to product page..

Looks pretty sweet and adds a touch screen for the AC/Heating controls... Expensive, but impressive if it works like it's advertised.

Anyone seen one of these in action or have one? I'm interested in learning more. I know it's designed to work with their INE-Z928HD headunit... Which has a HUGE 8" screen to boot... but expensive too... damn Alpine...

I don't have it but did look at it....the deciding factor (besides cost) for me was the following product note. I would not want to give up these features:

Note: This Perfect Fit package will allow you to control the Alpine receiver with the steering wheel audio controls in your vehicle. It will not retain the factory Bluetooth functionality on your steering wheel, including SYNC and hands-free phone calls. It will not work with factory Sirius and XM satellite radio tuners.

Ahhh... good catch... I didn't even see that caveat... thanks.
