I am assuming that the ipads can be removed when the owner leave the vehicle.
Doesn't Ipad offer a bigger screen than your normal 7" screen Double Din HU?
If I am not mistaken, there was already a custom made audi that had Ipads installed few years back. . . .
like I said earlier, it is not entirely for your normal Ipad use (playing games).
Imagine with internet connected in car entertainment system, you could have content be played streaming through the net. You can have a home media server setup, then just stream the content through the ipad, you can get location based services, information etc on the fly.
I know the question on how fast this will be enabled in Malaysia might be a question. Or how reliable the infrastructure will be. But, at least, it is something to look for.
There area already interesting technology around us. It just might be that is yet to be implemented here.
In terms of usage, considering that the technology is modular, there should not be any concern what car it is used with right?
If I have an iswara as a taxi and I want my passenger to be able to use wifi while sitting in my car, I can right?
I would consider this as a concept, when the technology becomes affordable and widely accessible, there is no reason that it is only applicable to bigger cars.
what I can say is this. . .
have an open mind and look at the technology that is trying to be enabled. it might be viewed as not required now, but who knows what the future holds? Just look at how mobile phone usage grows, it is hard to find anyone not having one nowadays right?
close your eyes, imagine that the same effort is being done by your favourite car manufacturer and internet service provider, would you still be this negative?
If yes, then I have nothing else to say.
But if your answer is no, then doesn't that just mean you're bias because it is done by Proton?
or, if you are one of the lucky winner, would you say "no, I do not want the prize. Can I give it to someone else?" and if that actually happen, please say you'll give the prize to me :)
