Anothing interesting concept, similar to the extended display, would be to create a small black box that could wirelessly send signals to a remote display unit. This way, you could install the player out of sight (trunk / boot / glove box / under a seat / etc.) and still have the display and controls available as a small "velcro attached" removable object, similar to a removable face radio.
This could probably be done without any custom hardware being involved.
Plug on a RS232 - Bluetooth dongle into the back of the empeg. Add some fairly simple code to the kernel to stream the display data out and accept button press events.
Add a Bluetooth enabled PDA and some simple code to render the display data coming in over the Bluetooth serial link and send button press events.
You probably wouldn't be able to get screen updates as frequently as on the real screen, but enough to use the player.
All relatively straight forward (in my software developer's mind), in theory at least.
