LGTspecB1657615261 Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 Just picked one up. Cheap map switcher what should fit right in the glovebox. Not great for anything beyond that, but worth the $115 (+shipping). I can't believe you can get a Windows XP Netbook with camera and Wifi for this price. Its crazy! Black http://www.mwave.com/mwave/skusearch_v3.asp?scriteria=3007180 White http://www.mwave.com/mwave/skusearch_v3.asp?scriteria=3007181 $10 off coupon http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g309/mwavemarketing/March2008/10dollarcoupon-april.jpg I just got my tracking info, and it said "out of stock" when I ordered mine yesterday. Figured I would share. I will feel more comfortable running E85 now. In the event I have to run 93 octane, this will be sitting in the glovebox ready to switch maps if needed. I guess I should get a power converter too just to be safe (in the case of a dead battery). Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John M Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 I agree it's a killer deal -- and I own a computer store! If I'd seen it earlier I would have bought a few for resale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LGTspecB1657615261 Posted August 8, 2009 Author Share Posted August 8, 2009 Yea I almost bought 2 as well. Shamar, the idea went right out the window when I saw this! I wonder if you could get a composite video out for this and display a gauge pack on the nav?

biz77 Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 Looks like they expect more stock on the black one in ~ 45 days??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
05LGT-Hank Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 I ended up grabbing one of the black refurb 900's they have in stock right now for $140 shipped, and am finding the screen a wee bit small for the logging dashboard, but for quick flashes and playing with my maps, it fits the bill perfectly. I'd think with the 7" screen, you might not have enough real estate to show all the info you'd like. If it works though, rock it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSFW Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Those disappeared quickly. If the screen is only 7", try the dashboard and logger stuff here: http://www.codeplex.com/ssm It's what I use on my CarPC most of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
