Car Computer
I'd love to have this do-it-yourself car computer. It's removable and uses a touch-screen with onscreen keyboard, a number keypad, and voice control. It serves as a workstation, jukebox, and GPS navigator with speech output. The site says:
* It’s not permanently mounted in the car.
* It doesn’t require (many) special parts or equipment.
* It doesn’t seem to overheat in hot weather, and fans run quiet.
* It’s not an electricity hog, and won’t drain the battery.
* It fits in a tiny car with a weak electrical system.
* It doesn’t use a DC-DC converter.
* It doesn’t require a screen (for basic functions).
* The system is about as cheap as a desktop computer.
* Runs in my car or anywhere else.
* Pinpoint my location on a detailed map.
* Plot waypoints on the same map.
* Play MP3’s, videos, games, etc.
* Function as a file server, with only power and USB WiFi connected.
* Function as a streaming security cam, with USB camera added.
* Scan for WiFi signals, with or without a screen (audio output).
* Function as a jukebox without a screen.
* Anything else a computer can do, anywhere it can get power.
