Yep, feel the same way, it's ok, but would I run out and do it nope.

True but hard wiring an adapter and inverter and snaking the cable up through the dash into the "pan"? and then every time you take it in and out you have to mess with the cable. Technically doable i am sure but not very user friendly.

THey can put a cellular one in there as soon as they are available.

The install appears to be amateur and not really thought out from a practical stand point... Looks nice in a photo but not really for everyday use while out and about.

Not sure on the car either.

To be honest seems like a waste of time and money imo.

To each his own i suppose!

God forbid you forget to remove it and head out for a night on the town. Break In Alert

I think this is pretty cool, would i do it? probably not... I honestly think the funniest part is that at the very beginning the video, the dude claims to be the "inventor of the ipad car install". all that aside though, still looks cool

Interesting question because video playing devices installed in front violate local ordinances in many places.

Pretty slick.
Now put some in the back of the head rests, and I will be happy.
