help choosing a navigation unit.

I'm looking for an alpine navigation system to add to my dvd player/monitor. Anyhow I was looking around and have come across the nve-n852a and nve-n871a add on navigations and wanted to know which was the newer unit and which was the better unit. I know the nve-n872a is the newest but that's WAY out of my price range and other two units seem so be attainable a lot cheaper. Anyhow the nve-n852a seems to look like the newer model but I'm not sure. I would really appreciate the help of the guru's on here. Thanks.

I don't really care for the portable navi unit. Plus I can possible get either of the units mentioned for about 2-300. Anyone know which of the two is actually newer?

Maybe you misunderstood. I actually know that infact the nve-872a is the newest one but i was wondering whether the nve-852a or nve-871a is the newer unit.

That's what i'm thinking the only reason i'm rethinking it is because the nve-852 looks soo much newer than the 871. There appearance of the two is what throws me off.
