Default need a new HU

Ok, so I finally got some money back from a few things and have a couple hundred to spend and replace my fried HU.

I need 3 preamp outputs, I plan on running a few amps later on.
AUX inputs through RCA jacks would be really really good.
I have an XM RoadyXT right now, so I don't need built in XM capability, but having that option would be really nice. If it came between this OR the AUX inputs I'd choose the AUX inputs so I can choose what the source is.

It needs to fit my 93 Integra LS.
Needs to be in the ballpark of 200 or less.
I prefer it in black. (This has a nice aux in right in the front, but it's silver and stands out too much. bleh)
A remote would be super keen too But not required.

I prefer Alpine, it doesn't need to be new, but finding the older ones is harder and harder. Kenwood and Pioneer are also considerable. As well as maybe some others.

The one pet peeve that I'll probably catch hell for, if it says IPOD on the front of it, forget it. Or I'd have already gone with this model. Really I prefer no branding on the front of it, but that's impossible.

So I've started with this: linky
But still cannot decide. Anyone else have some suggestions?

yea that one doesn't quite meet my specs.

I'm looking over some Kenwoods now, they look pretty decent. 5032 looks like what I might get. For $130, it's a much better price too
