[QUOTE="melvimbe, post: 1377565, member: 35314"] Seriously thinking about ordering one of these. My truck is less than a month old though, so it feels like I should take a little more time and prioritize my upgrade plans. At the very least I should wait till the next holiday discount is available. A few questions concerns I have. First, it looks as though the PX6 is locked in to android version 8.1. That's not a big problem by itself, but eventually, apps will stop supporting that version of software. I wouldn't even care about that, but since I'll likely use streaming and other cloud based apps, it means some apps will simply stop working. Will Phoenix provide an upgrade path or will the tablet become practically obsolete in a few years? Next question, has anyone used the table with Amazon? I primarily use Amazon music as my streaming service, although I'm open to switching if it makes sense. I also use Alexa rather extensively, and would love it if the tablet can be setup with Amazon as the default voice assistant. Speaking of voice control, I've seen it mentioned a couple times. Is the voice control limited to that provided by Ford/Sync 3? Does it use the Google Home voice assistant? Does it depend on what the current focus is? Does it work by using a wake word, pressing the voice button, or both? Does anyone have any pics of what the top relocated buttons look like? I haven't seen any. I do use the camera button quite frequently, is it still convenient to use? As I said before, I suppose I need to spend more learning what the existing system can do before I pull the trigger. Although as pointed out, the aesthetic appeal of the tablet almost makes it worth it right there, and you don't lose any functionality that you currently have. [/QUOTE]
