Just got mine today, also from Crutchfield. It's great! A bit hard to program buttons and things, and even text editting is kind of tough, but you can do the basics for now until the s/w comes out.

By the way, some people have complained that command, esp from the joystick, are not always registered properly. It seems that the beep comes before the command is actually sent, so always press the button/stick for a little bit longer than the beep to ensure the command is sent.

Con: can't make a macro of the power button...
