I'm not, that pic was of the first time I got it working and it was
playing live tv through the wireless and from the backend in the
basement.
Now though, I have it set up to transfer the recordings from the main
backend every night, and I am going to work on a script this weekend
that will also get the DB entries for the files and put them in the
mobiles DB.

The trusty ATI X10 remote.  I hope alpine will actually release the
specs (like they said they would) so I can get the in-dash units
controls working.

It's a laptop and I plan to make a cover/mounting system that will hide
it into the blazers headliner in the back.
