I guess there is a bright side, beyond Tim Howard. We played great for about 15 min. Had they played anywhere near that level during regulation we could've won...

Oh, nothing. Just installing a tow hitch.

Think my quote from Benz was $4k...made me look for one with a hitch. No aftermarket at that time either.

My surface pro 1 boots to login screen ~5-8 seconds then after logging in it's instantly on desktop, and you can disable the login / welcome screen.

 

The surface pro 2 is probably faster and you can get LTE 4G version for internet and GPS.

 

Only thing I don't know is how you would make it turn on from ignition. Might check out

 

Not to mention you could open up the minidsp program for easy tuning.

I can't fit 11" sad.png

Ok, I can, but it fucks up a bunch of other stuff and makes the install take WAY longer and look way less stock.

And of course, the 9.7" solution I thought I had I just found out does not include the touch screen portion. Just a dead screen. Aargh! I hate car audio.

We lost in the transition game...but that is also our strength on offense. To me the bright spot was we were competitive, albeit slightly over matched individually but the team play was brilliant at times.

Resistive bullshit

http://lilliput.gmc.globalmarket.com/products/details/new-9-7-1024-768-and-5-wire-resistive-touch-monitor-1633529.html

I REALLY want capacitive as the multitouch saves me from needing a start button and allows alt+tab from the screen which is huge. Sure I can add buttons, but that is lame in comparison.

Have you looked at the win8 tablets from Dell, Toshiba, HP, Lenovo, etc? They have quite a few at 10" and under, and they're all capacitive screens. Though none have 4g lte so I you'd probably need a gps dongle and extra hdd / sd card.

Never thought I'd be so adamant about a windows platform but for what you're doing it seems the simplest.

So I'm wondering of this is possible without tons of money.

It would be AWESOME to have a setup in my house where I could turn Pandora on on the iPad have it transmit through WiFi to WiFi receivers on my audio playing devices. (Home stereo and Garage stereo)

Is there anything like that? Another awesome thing would be the ability to feed audio to the receiver (like TV) so during football season I could listen to the game outside while cooking.

It would really be just like chromecast with the ability to do just audio.

An 8" screen will look teeny in my dash. Trying to decide if I can deal with a resistive...and if any resistive can do multitouch.

Really only want 2 finger scrolling & pinch.

Pull some wires. Wireless blows.

December of 08 I pulled more than 3000' of wire in my house. BEST thing I've ever done to it.

12" is too big too. While I can make it fit, I'd have to cut up the stock bezel and fab something. Here it is scaled about how it would be:

2014-cadillac-escalade-dash_zpsa37a9ab9.

While it is cool and all I think one that fits in the bezel near perfect would be the best.

If I went big I'd have to make it removeable and then it'd have to be a tablet. I want everything embedded.
