Default Re: $23 deleivered car stereo from china - Am I missing something

I remember either Supercheap or Autobarn having on sale a head unit a few years back that I was interested in, but they sold out in days and don't seem to have reappeared.

Can't remember the brand (not a "good" brand, just a cheapo make), but they were a "media player", and while a normal single DIN size front, only went into the dash about 50mm. They had a face plate with the normal AM/FM radio, but instead of a CD player it had an SD card slot and a USB input on one side. The price was only something stupid like $50.

Technology advances, and per unit prices should come down sharply..."should"...but sometimes don't seem to. Head units are one place where prices don't seem to change very much at all, even though they're just about all spat out of factories in Asia in massive numbers.
