The Sony MEX-BT5700U is similiar to its sister unit, the Sony MEX-BT3700 except it is not listed as being HD or Satellite Radio ready. It does offer PBAP, Phonebook Access Profile, which allows it to link directly to BT mobile phonebook. It is a head unit with a 1-line LCD display and a front USB 1-wire for iPhone, iPod, Walkman, and other music players.
