Hey mate. I had one. Emphasis on HAD. The concept is great, topo, gps, dvd player, cd player, radio, mp3 blah blah blah... I made em rip mine out. The function your gona use most is what? The radio and that couldnt even work properly. I didnt spend 2 gorillas to have no radio so i told em to cram it. Truthfuly it fit in nice and looked good. The program it runs for around town navigation is route 66 navigation and it was sending me down wrong streets and stuff. Better go with one powered by where is maps or something.
Hope i didnt sound too disgruntled. lol
Great concept but the more we try to simplyfy things the more problems we create.

Build your own carpc and run whatever software you want to.
I have my normal stereo set up with the carpc plugged into it with a 7" touchscreen.
All my navigation with designator maps for around town, Ozi explore of out of town, DVD, MP3 and all the rest. Even have wifi for internet and file synchro. Plus the advantage of being able to store my pictures of the camera and store them, even burn them onto a disk if I want.
This link is for an AUstralian CARPC forum, it's just starting off, but already has alot of info on it.
