This month's Dutch C'T magazine featured a short article on this Car PC.


Original Photo

Looks like a nice base for an off-the-shelf solution. Read press article on the new Pentium-M based model or the specs of a previous model

It's a tad expensive, though at EUR 2200.

Also, is it a constant velocity server or a curriculum vitae server?

Sorry Robin, I didn't notice the size because of IE's auto-shrink feature.
It's too late to edit now.

If anyone's interested in this, I just found out that Christoph, who used to work for Rio and designed the hw for the Rio Receiver, is now director of engineering at Kontron. I can always ask if he can get any discounts.... worth a try
