Car Tablet PC -- 5 large for what?

By Marc Perton

We're sure there's someone out there who's willing to lay down $5K for the Car Tablet PC, an ultra-small PC
with an 8.4" TFT, built-in keyboard, 40GB HDD, 1.4GHz Pentium M and integrated speakers, designed to be used while you're cruising the freeway. But for a lot less, we can get a car-ready
Mac mini with a touchscreen display, or any number of homebrew options. Check out the new book

Geek My Ride for some tips. Just don't look for it in an Apple store (despite its endorsement by Woz), since it's a
Wiley title.
