Just waiting to see how Android goes on the Raspberry Pi, there are touchscreen available for it already. That combined with Android I reckon will make a good CarPC
That looks a very tidy install there Ammo. Did you get the motherboard replaced in the end, or?

I might even look at conventional tablets - would probably be Android based - alot of scope - plus SDK development too, so could design your own custom Car-PC front end (menu system).

The iPad's I think are overrated (runs for cover), plus way overpriced. Alot comes down to branding, as usual...

An ipad mini would be a great car pc I think. But the prelude dash isn't really ideal since the screen should probably be where the centre vents are.
