Insignia Pilot Officially Discontinued

[dhartsoc]

My Pilot is still going strong too. The battery is weak and I debate picking picking up a new one. Find myself wondering if I really want to take it apart when it still works well, might be tempting fate to replace the battery.

The feature set is still hard to match at the price I paid.

Well, if your driving, the Insignia's wheel is a lot easier and safer to operate than a touch screen. My key needs for a Pilot wannabe are standard mini-USB ports (have lots of cables) and folder browsing - think of dumping from your computer lots of audio books - easy to browse to specific folders and "play all".

Anyone got suggestions (other than used on ebay)?

Take this one, for example:

http://europe.nokia.com/n868mp/specifications

It's the specs for the Nokia N86, releasing in Europe, but coming to the U.S. unlocked, off-contract sometime this Summer.

To summarize, it has:
-great sounding audio (comparable to past Nokia multi media phones)
-folder browsing
-micro SDHC expandable
-stereo bluetooth pairing
-micro USB connector
-TV out from device
-supports multiple audio and video formats including H.264
-has a built in FM transmitter to connect to your car or home stereo
-wifi
-3G
-the newly opened Ovi (Nokia sponsored) app store with hundreds of mobile applications.

plus an 8 megapixel camera and ability to shoot video in SD 640x480.
