I also found this motherboard and low and behold it will fit in the Over head console in my baby blazer (its still a proto-type but looks promissing) I could cobble a computer out of this hardware and be gtg. even if I would have to run a MS product

The Brain for my HU is in the center console but I suppose I could run some longer wires and place the Karma on the dash... anyone have a karma that can give me the skinny on it?

Since auxiliary docks aren't yet available, I'd be tempted to try one of the PDA/Cell phone mounts and simply use a 1/8" Phono to RCA patch cord. I've not personally tested battery life yet, but I'm told it's about 10 hours, which'd cover most trips away from the charger. The AC charger will also plug directly into the Karma (skipping the base), so it'd be possible to hard wire some power. The interface is intuitive enough to do without looking at the player for most functions.
