Recommendations for in car tablet

[subvertbeats]

Hi folks

Looking for some advice on a suitable tablet for use as in my car.

Im looking for either a 7 or 8 inch screen.

It needs to have bluetooth - The primary use is to connect to a Bluetooth OBDII application (PLX Kiwi Bluetooth - Connect your Droid mobile device to your car's OBD2 OBDII Port) to display various engine diagnostic information.

Needs to be Android 2.1 or later (if 2.1, the ability to update to 2.2 or 2.3, or eventually Honeycomb would be important.)

Nice to have, but not essential:

- GPS
- 3G

Im looking to (of course) spend as little as possible, but the device must have stable firmware, and (ideally proven) reliable hardware.

If it makes a difference, I'm quite technically proficient so rooting and installing custom roms is no problem.

Thanks!

This is an option that does not break the bank: Linx, Commtiva 7" Android Tablet PC, Computing, Computing, Technology - Staples
3G, GPS, Bluetooth, Android 2.2, phone calls

Refer to: http://android.modaco.com/category/...onic-viewpad-7-camangi-fm600-n700-modaco-com/

Alternately, Archos 70 IT will run Flash but are without GPS and 3G.

The only tablet that is likely to get HC right now in your market is the Advent Vega, which has the most value in UK markets in my opinion.

Thanks, appreciate the reply!

Id been looking at the Linx.

The Vega looks great too, but only in 10" ? I need 7 or 8" for the car really.
