In-dash Car PC For a Modest Price

Posted by Keith McMillan

Gizmodo had this interesting link to techabob’s site, where he gives a quick pitch on an in-dash car PC called NaviSurfer II. This little unit comes without an OS, but has an adjustable built-in touchscreen LCD display, and costs less than $1,000 (without USB accessories).

They’ve got a nice list of accessory modules too:

I’ve thought for a long time that I’d like to put a PC into my little BMW 328iS, but one of the problems has been where to put the display. It’s not what you’d call “roomy” in there, and I didn’t really want to drill holes in the dash.

This unit would solve the problem nicely. I’d have to get some sort of stereo receiver so I could still listen to broadcast, but this looks like it’d do the trick otherwise.
