KNGT icom MK1 Car PC makes driving both more fun and more dangerous
Quote:
This is actually a fully-fledged PC, but one that has been stuffed into something you could fit into a dashboard - it even has a DVD drive behind the 800x480 WVGA touchscreen. As you might expect, the keyboard is entirely touchscreen meaning that you have to take your eyes off of the road to use it.
other websites indicate that this is "released" and not in a planning stage. I wonder if this is just another vaporware, or we are going to have something other than ultra-expensive infill g4 and still-not-released ct650. One way or the other, if this is really released, we should see them for sale within a month or so.
I was one of the very few who manage to get a sample unit of the MK1 for testing.
In my opinion, this unit is not worth the money and effort. It is not comparable to G4.
First of all, the unit does not automatically power up. It cannot support hibernation or sleep because of hardware limitation.
The harddisk is secure without any dampeners and the sata cable behind the harddisk kept coming loose.
The reverse camera image is display in Windows and it is not compatible (unclear image) to the reverse camera available for automotive.
In short, not a worthy product and again support from the company is bad. They simply avoid your calls.
