If the empeg weren't around, I would have LONG since built my own in-car computer for the task. I was itching to do that when I discovered the empeg. This is pre-Neo and pre-Phatnoise of course.

I don't know if I'd have gone for a Neo or a Phatnoise in the absence of an empeg. Hm. Probably would have, if there were no other alternatives.

Nowadays, it would be a Karma and an aux-in adapter. If the Karma weren't around, it would be an iPod and an aux-in adapter.
