If we all think together we can come up with a sweet setup.I have been toying with the idea of putting a Mac Mini computer in there (I don;t know where it would go yet) and then getting an evdo card to connect to the internet while driving. Then I could load the computer with movies and tv shows, install an application like boxee which allows you to watch all the movies with a nice interface, and even connect to internet sites like hulu so you can watch current TV shows. I am unsure if the speeds I get from an EVDO card will be fast enough to support streaming video though, I bet it wouldn't.Why a Mac and Boxee I think a wireless keyboard and mouse option would be too bulky in the car, but I need a way to navigate my content. Boxee has an iPhone app which is pretty nice, and also works with the Apple remote which is really small. The only downside is that I could not use the other internet features, like browsing the web. I suppose you could rig up a mouse and keyboard, but to do it well will probably be quite pricey. What do you guys think Any ideas on how to get a Slingbox going in your car, it would be pretty cool to have live TV as you drive. There is a slingbox app for the computer, but again, you have keyboard and mouse problems.Wow its just like we are thinking and using one brain Except that i am a mile ahead and its already installed with a WImax internet connection i used an Asus Eee pc900 with ubuntu OS and got a small 200W inverter connect the AUX to the audion and i even got a wirless keybored and mouse i used the cover for the cup holder as my mouse pad and guess what i traviled about 500 KM to the east with a two hour movie playing its just perfect ( i know crazy ) you can try docking the labtop on top of the NAV using some of the chip chop tapes ( sorry don't know what they call it usually you find it in labtop bags and simply it makes a chip chop sound thats why i called it chip chop ) any ways ill post some pics later on Quote, originally posted by mhafez raquo;I was just going to post a similar thread.

Given the converters on the market the sky is the limit. However; video output is limited while the vehicle is in motion for safety reasons.Welcome to the group and enjoy your EX.
