    lol! well i go down to the RIM head office every 2 weeks over here in the U.K. i can assure you google android apps will be coming to us very soon less than a month or so. i should hopefully know more next week as am back there for training i know there alot of rumours flying about it getting a native email client i havent heard to much about that to be honest with you mate. what i can do is send u a pm nxt week when i know more
    If you get VW or any other car manufacturer to integrate the plabook at the factory level, I will buy you a playbook to call your own. It will take some initiative, but there is a long line of people waiting for such an option. I would pay a lot more than the value of the tablet to integrate the tablet into my life.

    I really want to get meta trader 4 to make a playbook version of their software for the playbook. I would never have to go into the office again. I would show up for the last 10 minutes of the day, just for laughs.

    The playbook will get there. It has almost replaced my laptop. A few more key components and it will be perfect.

    NOBODY IS ABLE TO DO THIS WITH A IPAD! Great work!
    That isn't true. Sound Man in California did a custom instal on ipad2 launch date, filmed it and put it up on Youtube. If I still lived in California I would have them do my playbook.



    These guys did a great job and they are entertaining.

    schylmer that sounds like a good deal. i would defo consider taking the idea to vw but to be honest mate i dont know where to start and what to do i just did it 4myself never realy thought about weather there maybe demand for tablets installed into cars or in this case a blackberry playbook modification.

    d-xavier dont think RIM are employing at the moment worth having a look online and seeing whats available.

    thanks guys glad you lot like the playbook install.

    All good. I've got it already. Its an 04 sti, also waiting for a motor coincidentally. But its here, ready to be put in, and less than half the price of the v8.

    sounds good man hopefully the 04 STI has a nice space on the dash board for you to have the playbook custom fitted into it have you had a look does it? only thing id suggest is to have a in built charging pin for it cos i have to charge my playbook everynight. i did my install myself as i work on cars in my spare time so i saved alot of money rather than take it to someone, did mines in my back garage lol

    No, I think the 8 track player came standard with the new truck.

    I remember 30 years ago, riding in the back seat of my aunts car was like sitting in a shopping cart full of 8 track cassettes. The good old days. In the winter, she would ask all the kids in the back to hold and warm up the next selection she wanted to play. Back then we had to work for our music.

    Congrats....Looks great! I'm getting mine installed on my Lancer Evolution IX this week. Hope it comes out as good as yours. As far as wifi connection, I velcroed a verizon mobile hotspot to the dash lol. Because mine is the wifi only model. temporary until i can figure out another place to put it.

    I'm hoping that we see Playbooks in police cars (on the road, not just the demo vehicle that Mobile Innovations did) soon.

    This is AWESOME!

    Giving me ideas on installing into the flip top lid in my '02 Skyline (AKA '03 Infiniti G35). If I can make it fit so that it can close then it could be a bit of stealth during the daytime so nobody tries to steal.

    What would be great is if they could update the Playbook Bluetooth to A2DP and allow it to link with the Blackberry Media Gateway. Since I have that in my car already, all I would need to plug in is the power connector. If I got a PB dock connector, I could make installation a simple matter of slotting it in.
