not sure if ne1 would b interested in a incar pc. case it likely to be the size 65mm(H) x 210mm(D) x 258mm(W) which is fairly small and the spec is going to be similar to:
800mhz
cdrw/dvd
40gb notebook 4200rpm hard drive
256 ddr ram
7" touchscreen vga in/video in/remote/stand
windows xp home
currently trying to find the best suppliers products and see what demand is there. also can get sat nav for around £100 more, hav a controller like the new bmws have 2 control it, tv aerial and external tv tuner, bluetooth usb for connection to phone. there some front end software etc for it like seen in pimp my ride
just seeing if people would be interested not sure on final price as front end software and power units for voltage drops are additional costs but around the £600-£700 with the monitor and xp included
just gaugin interest, gettin info on a new front end piece of software which the makers say will have loadsa features but sat nav is around £100 more, and various other possiblities, final decisions on hardware and software still need to be made, packagin and working example needs to be made so make sure theres no errors or issues.
just seein whos interested
