Things I am undecided on
A roll up keyboard (I know there is one, I just haven't really gone looking for yet)
Generic USB hub for front of car
Wireless mouse
Bluetooth adapter? (Not sure on this one yet)
Slot load DVD/CD-ROM. Will be mounted in glove box, needs to be USB, probably via an enclosure.
FrontEnd....probably Frodoplayer, but I am still undecided.
I realize I am going overkill/high-end on a lot of these parts, but I feel that nothing but the best for my car...
Anyways, if anyone has any comments, let me know.
