While KNGT’s icom MK1 in car computer will be gracing dashboards across Asia later this year, before the end of 2008, American drivers will be able to get in on the fun, too, thanks to Clarion’s MiND.The MiND, which looks like a dashboard-based GPS, is a car computer that offers drivers a 4.8-inch touchscreen, 512 MB of RAM, 4 GB of flash memory, a WiFi connection, and the ability to access GPS, YouTube, MySpace, Google Maps, and weather forecasts while driving. The device can also come with you out of the car. No pricing details are available yet.While GPS devices seem a possible platform for the deployment of web-updated content networks like FrameChannel, a dashboard-based PC running Linux, like the ClarionMiND, seems even more likely.
