Default Any USB Bluetooth headunits??

As the title, really. I'm looking for a headunit that has a USB input for a memory stick drive and is also bluetooth compatible.

Failing that, are there any other alternatives to the Parrot for using my mobile in the car? Are the replacement rearview mirrors any good?

I've tred googling it and not found anything, hence the question. I've already got a Kenwood USB HU and TBH the dot matrix style display looks really cheap...

don't know what your budget is, but becker are doing some nice new headunits that have bluetooth built in - if I can remember they're called grand prix and being becker they are SUPERB. Whatever you do, stay away from the new parrot "rhythm & blue" - aparrently a good idea but very badly made and always crashing (from what I've read) Blaupunkt have a new USB headunit called the memphis mp66 but charge extra for an RCA cable to connect it to an amp. Personally I've always been a kenwood man, but as a mate recently said, "don't like those new kenwoods with the ***** joystick!"

I just wish I'd seen the beckers before I bought my alpine 9857r ..........
