I had one and it was great!

Had DVD, Sat Nav,Bluetooth,SD Card slot ect ect and never let me down. I actually think the sat nav was better than my RNS 510!

I got it from an english seller with a 12 month warranty but I did pay £400 for it! The only reason I sold it was because I wanted to get the info in the highline and I'm fitting the Mk6 reverse camera.

I sold it to another forum member and as far as I'm aware he has'nt had any problems with it either.

I think its just luck of the draw as I know many people that have had problems with their RNS's.

Ive got one of the Chinese stereo's and very happy with, paid £275 from a UK seller and cant fault it, its fully loaded, Sat Nav ( IGO8 ) Bluetooth, Ipod Connectivity etc etc and you can even stream music via bluetooth from your iphone. I even got the steering wheel controls working.

Nearly half the price of of the RNS510 and you get more with it

Looking at that link you sent every image has a stylus being used for operating the screen, that would be rather pants and probably not very safe.  I would imagine you might have some issues getting it to display info in the highline DIS.  Could be a lottery but by the sounds of it there are some suitbale units out there.

I searched for hours trying to find a review and couldn't find one.
I phoned them up in the end and they said there ok,but if you have the cash for
RNS go with that.
