car stereo question

Need some advice on the best HU options for me:
I have an 05 Dodge Ram (the rounded corner HU, approx 1.5 DIN) with Infinity sound system. The Cd player has given up the ghost.

What I want:
-iPod compatability through the HU
-satelite radio (prefer Sirius)
-built in bluetooth hands free for my phone
-MP3 playback ability
-built in GPS

Those are basically in order of preference. I did some research on this last year and came up with the Pioneer Avic Z-1. Two big problems, it is double DIN which would be awful hard to put in, and I understand the Pioneer iPod interface is horrible.

Can you guys give me some recomendations?

Beware some of those Infinity systems, I have seen some with amplifiers at the speakers. Do some research before you buy a deck. Call Crutchfield, they can probably provide guidance?

hey guys i need some info i was wondering if u guys can help me out i got an xtant amp which is xtant6001 it says it pushes 600 rms how can i know what it pushes in peak power plus its a mono i was wonder is this xtant amp enough to push 2 10 's of Infinity Reference 1050w it pushes 250 rms 1000 watts peak power is that enought or not woth it

would check into eclipse, alpine, or pioneer premier...

im pretty sure alpine has the best ipod interface. I had an alpine deck in my old car that synced with my ipod perfectly.

i have the same truck as you and am planning on putting a 7-10 inch touch screen monitor in the dash and running it with a computer that handles all my movies/mp3s/gps navigation/bluetooth etc. Its a bit more work but has tons of possibilities. I just started researching about this and as soon as i get the money will start installing. check out www.mp3car.com for more details.
