Pretty sweet idea

and yet they're worried about people texting and driving.



the ipad is cool, they got one at work for testing purposes and i've screwed around with it a few times. It's still got a ton of bugs to be worked out and i can't see it being user friendly in an auto environment yet.

piece of junk. heres another strange spot for one

Why a piece of junk?

Nate out in Vegas is doing this same install in the G8.

I think he's done with it now.

That looks sick

Yeah it came out nice, It took him a long time to do it.

meant ipad not the car, and its junk for numerous reasons. i wont get this thread anymore off topic with reasons why i think that way.

I know. Im just saying, its a lot more useful than a plain ol CD player.

ehh debatable lol. Use one and you'll know what I'm talking about.


And, I'm an apple person. My main computer is a macbook pro, i talked my stepdad into buying an imac, i've had Ipods for years and got my dad an iphone.


The Ipad is goingto be an EPIC fail, at least until they work out the bugs and figure out a niche market to aim it at.

Well it's just like anything else, It has its bugs until they perfect it.

going to turn into one of the most stolen items from a car if that catches on. going to be easier than a GPS and a headunit

I hate the Ipad for various reasons.

I really see this as a horrible idea too. What does this thing do that a normal mp3 player cant? A whole bunch of shit that keeps you distracted on the road. I mean, does it even have a navigation function? Thats about the only thing I could being useful, and I can spend a hell of alot less for that function.

Or hell, I can put a carputer in there with a large screen for that cost that will do 5x the things that does.

One thing I will say, is that the G8 guy did a super nice install job. It LOOKS fantastic.

I agree, It may be a huge distraction as far as it being installed inside a car.
