We've seen a few ideas for PVR and TV entertainment products in your car such as the UVIA M100 to stream wireless media to your car, the Pioneer Raku-Navi In-car home cinema, and the $5000 F20WIRD portable in-car TV. Now the latest in-car TV device is the MBR0201 from MBCO (Mobile Broadcast Corporation Japan). This is a TiVo like product that records audio and video for later playback from satellite radio or video signals.
The satellite video only work in countries with an advanced satellite infrastructure like Japan. Looking at the picture you can see the device in place on the cars dashboard beneath a small TV screen.
As with all these in-car entertainment devices I smell a high speed collision.
1. I've been trying to get my TiVo hacking buddies to hook this kinda thing up in their cars here in The States w/ DirectTiVos...
O well.
