Apple's new Ipad in SC
I just watched apples presentation of its new Ipad, and instantly thought of putting it where my radio is. If you haven't seen it, it is basically a large Ipod touch. It measures 9.56 by 7.47 inches with a .5 inch depth. I haven't measured anything yet, and the product wont be released for another couple months, so I have time to figure out how to do it.
Also, I really appreciate the DIY threads. They have saved me plenty of money and time. Hopefully, I can add one on how to do this down the road. I would love to here some ideas. To have my Itunes library, gps apps, and full internet in my SC will be freaking sweet. |
Icing on the cake would be an EMS interface. Imagine doing tuning with it.

wont work, cause it does not have a real OS. think of the ipod touch just bigger. no camera, no usb inputs, no external memory, no multi-tasking, no flash, no hdmi, not even widescreen 16:9 its still 4:3, etc. so really, can not power your car entertainment and it sucks as a tablet pc or even a netbook. get an ipod touch or the iphone.

When I first heard about this product I thought that Apple was getting into the feminine hygiene business.
|
iPad, i heard some one talk about it i thought they were making fun of something i thought it was a tampon or something..

Looks pretty fail -__-
|
the girls dancing at the end kinda was a little gross..gawt damn it apple...ya had to go and name a flipping iPad...
|
Pretty worthless machine.
For the price, you can get a more capable laptop/netbook and avoid your friends joking you about your $1,000 tampon. |

I totally agree but there are those among us who are so obcessed with Apple and their products that you could actually write (with a Sharpie) "Ipad" on a feminine hygiene product and they would buy it. Why spend less for more capability when you can waste your money on less? |
Don't do it.
Things like this always have some kind of bugs in them that need to be worked out. I'd say wait a bit and see how they are...during that time the price will fall aswell! Good luck though. |
Nice being creative but that won't work!!!
|
you could just use an imac with a headunit as the monitor instead, theres a thread around CL with something like that done
|
if you want a PC in your car, just get a Carputer..The Iphone is one thing, a BIG Iphone that has half the features is another thing-a waste of time and money...its an oversized laptop that doesnt close.
