Default What touchscreen headunit?

I'm thinking about buying a new double din headunit for my car.

Ideally it needs to have bluetooth handsfree built in and also a satnav. I also wouldn't mind having the ability to listen to DAB but those units seem to be much more expensive.

I have no clue really about what is good or not and what sort of money I should be paying?

Here's a couple I've been looking at, but again I don't know if they're what I need?

Also is having DAB worthwhile and how good is reception while driving?

Thanks in advance, Rob

been looking at getting a double din myself, going to go for a Parrot asteroid smart, mainly due to mounting depth in my car, its a mec'less unit

but also the built in sat nav, Apps ability, internet conectivity, bluetooth etc.

no DAB, but I only listen to pirates so FM good enough for me, but also being android bassed with a dongle and sim, would allow me to stream from something like tunein radio app.

Well I took the plunge and went for DAB in the end, seems like quite a good unit after reading different reviews.

Also has the built in navigation so I'm pleased as long as I forget how much it cost!
