iPad in Z?

Yes, a custom built carPC is definitely a valid option to consider. I think it is a little naive to think that everyone who is considering the ipad is a brainwashed hipster.

I think it comes down to what meets peoples needs. Take me for example, I could easily build a custom carPC and install it. On top of that I could easily write my own custom front end, visualizers or any other software I want for it as well. Just because I can do that doesn't mean I want to or need to.

I need a device that can meet the following needs. The iPad does all
of the following good enough.

Uses a very nice touch screen.
Boots up fast
Can play audio and video easily
Can access Internet to check work emails through exhange
Has GPS navigation capabilities.
Does not require a lot of my time to keep
running
Has a known interface that my passengers know how to use
Allows me to program for if I want to


Features I don't care about

Satellite radio
DVD playback (physical media is on it's way out)

I don't think anyone is saying that the iPad is the ultimate car media solution and all others suck.
