Just by a month after the net got all fired up about the problematic AVIC F-Series navigators, Pioneer has come to the rescue (we hope, anyway) with a free firmware update. Aimed specifically at the US-based AVIC-F90BT, AVIC-F900BT and AVIC-F700BT, the update will reportedly “improve overall system performance and resolve assured software issues.” The outfit additionally notes that the AVIC-F500BT doesn’t need the upgrade, and even whether your unit has been a-okay thus far, it still recommends applying the software. Take ten minutes or so and see what the latest firmware has to offer, and be certain to let us know whether all (or some) of the kinks have indeed been ironed out.

[Thanks, Steven]
