Default Using a Tablet for Navigation & Music

I was thinking about getting a 10" tablet and mounting it where the navigation panel is, in a way so that it can be detached when I leave the car. I think that I'd probably be happy enough with connecting it via a cassette-deck interface and would certainly start out trying this way as it only costs about $15, but would consider some aftermarket solution that provides an AUX / USB input to the audio system after my CPO warranty expires.

Has anybody done this and can reccommend a mounting bracket that would secure the tablet?

I'd prefer the ASUS Transformer Infinity but would consider an iPad as well if that's the only tablet with an available mount.

Thanks in advance!

I'm using iPad first gen with "wicked chili quickfix" . Very stable, clean, secure and cheap
The iPad is connected to usaspec's module for the sound.

The 'wicked chili quickfix' doesn't seem to be sold in the US (apparently it's a German product), or at least I couldn't find info for it in English after a quick Google search.

Does anyone have another suggestion or a place that I can get info on the 'wcq' in English?
