Great monitor, great price, hidden controls...

Bought this to replace my 24" LG monitor that died. In a hurry, I needed a monitor that would both connect to home PC via DVI and my work laptop via VGA. A quick search on-line found it at a great price at a local store. I called my wife who was shopping nearby. She picked it up, brought it home. I plugged it into the PC via DVI, beautiful picture. Then plugged in VGA and ... how do I switch inputs? I randomly pressed under and around the bezel and an on-screen menu popped up. I puzzled over the pictographs to figure out what to do, but in a few minutes had switched inputs and reduced brightness. That was a few months ago, it's been working flawlessly since!

Good value for features, if you can figure it out

Bought this to replace factory stereo in Toyota Sienna minivan. I paid to have Best Buy install it, and that went great. I arrived at the store at 4pm and at 5pm drove away with new radio on and working. It stuck out a bit too far but I figured there wasn't much to be done about that. I was able to plug my android phone into the phone jack and listen to that. Played a CD also and all sounded good and came through the multiple speakers well, good base & balance.
As it got dark, I noticed that the lights on the unit were way too bright. When I got home I went through the user guide carefully and figured out that I could pick literally any color for controls and display, so could set it to match other dials, etc, in the car. But there was no way to set the brightness. I searched online (Pioneer has a bunch of youtube videos) and followed a procedure described there, but unit didn't behave as described. It's just glaring, distractingly bright at night. Nothing to be done, except maybe set the color to dark blue. The other problem was that there was no separate HD radio source--just "Tuner". Seems they could have just had FM1, FM2, FM3, HD, ... like every other care receiver I know of. Instead there's some incredibly complicated sequence of steps you go through to decide whether you want the scan-for-stations function to find regular or HD stations so you can assign them to buttons, but this is nothing you could do while driving or without the manual. I thought I did it right but there's still no indication that I'm getting HD radio, which probably means I'm not, even though there are many HD stations here in the DC area. I just gave up, even though that's why I got this model and not a cheaper one. I know I should go back to BB and get them to help, but it's a hassle to make and appt. etc. If you get this one, see if you can get the installers to teach you how to fix all these things before you leave!
What's great about it: Lots of features, good sound
What's not so great: Couldn't figure out how to set it up properly
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
