Lilliput Car PC
One more thing - the Lilliput uses a VIA motherboard, a MI 1000 with a
C3 1 gig cpu, and the older CLE266 chipset. This is enough horsepower
for basic charting apps, but it is already a bit dated.
Were I building one today (and I would, were it not for other
priorities tugging at my wallet) I'd look a some of the more powerful
versions of the board, and as I mentioned, use the larger case for
expansion and easier cooling.

I'm considering the Lilliput for use onboard.
They are selling these on Ebay:

It's designed as a mobile pc with a 40 gig HD and 1 ghz CPU. The
power consumption is around 30 watts (but no more than 48 watts), and
has some nice features. Around US$500. Any use this model or
thinking about using one I'd like your opinions.
Cheers, Jim
