I can't find an owner's manual, but I'll gamble that this doesn't have a VGA input - however, an enterprising hacker may be able to figure it out. You could use the monitor for the best of both worlds. Get a real navi system from Alpine with built-in bluetooth that works AND hookup the CarPC for media functionality via a high-quality input.

if only it could control the pxa-h701! i wonder if it'll be easier to view during the day then the lilli/xenarcs that are out there now

JUST SAY WOOOWWW!

We will be able to buy a VGA touchscreen in a real good brand..

But i really wonder if there is a VGA connector, or it will be needed to buy an adaptor, or there won't have any way to plug a PC...

This screen can control a VehicleHub Pro, which can utilize an h701 or the new PXE-H650. Really hopeing it has a VGA input or can be easily modded.

Note that the VehicleHub Pro also has an FM tuner and the ability to add HD radio and Sat. Only thing missing is a CD/DVD drive.
