I made a few did not do this tho... I used a mini tower from Fry's it was 89.00 with bluetooth and bought a 32gb micosd card formated windows to boot of off a SD solid state for data as second drive. bought a WiFi hotspot you dont need service on it you just need it as a tool to communicate between devices. installed iTunes on PC and remote on my iPhone with the WiFi hot spot connected I could use my phone as a remote keyboard mouse for my computer. used video in on my pioneer as my screen total build about $200

Oh, I'm not bashing this project at all---just curious what it would do in a vehicle---sounds kinda cool to me in fact!
