How does it get its internet connection? Do you have to pay for a plan for the 3/4g?

Probably a wifi hotspot... not sure if he's using his phone or not though.

It's extremely easy to build an android tab, even to mate an android tab to an amplifier system. It's not that easy to design all the internals & components for automotive use... The thermal and vibration requirements alone are beyond the capabilities of most ARM based manufacturers (and there's a lot)...

I've just got done reading this entire thread, and it's been an interesting read.
I was also really interested in the CA-FI units, but the lack of firmware updates from them had me concerned. I along with others had been asking about it on their forums, with little response back. Finally they decided to just ban me instead. So there is no way I'll spend $1,000 on their product with customer service like that. So now I'm back to looking for something similar from someone else. While I was reading this thread, I was hopeful that there might be some alternatives but looks like those also had the same problems. The thread has died down for a couple months, so just wanted to bring it back to keep the discussion going. I'm restoring my Camaro and a double din Android unit is something I really want as part of my system. Chris

I am highly interested in this android head unit. This is the latest technology played with a number of double din "all-in-one" head units ranging from Kenwoods, to Pioneers, to Alpines, and even a Clarion mixed in there. They all pale in comparison. Great and informative post to read.

There's a few full android running 4.0 on eBay. Anyone had experience with them? Any comments on speed?
