Alpine's new Glide Touch
What are your thoughts on it?
Yeah!!
or
Neah...
I'm thinking about getting a 9855 but I'm unsure about the Glide Touch. I like the 9835, but they are getting hard to find. The internal amp is not important as I have a four channel to handle all the speakers.

I dont like it. I would much rather have feedback with the stuff I am pressing...like buttons. Witht he glide stuff, you dont know if you are doing it right until you look at the screen. Not very good, IMO, when you are driving. At least with buttons, you get a feedback.
The rest of the deck is nice though. Although the menus take a long while to get use to. Those 2 are the reasons why I picked a Premier deck over the 9855.
