How about thinking of this from a different angle?

I can certainly see auto manufacturers accommodating the ipad as an input device, the same way they do for audio these days.

While they will still find a way for you to pay an extra $1500-2k for the factory installed monitors/system, you will most likely just be hooking your ipad up as the source of the content...

I was thinking the same thing at first, then I thought that maybe there was a typo and he meant "real entertainment systems"...

The iPad should contribute to your affections since we all will be spending more time on the couch!

I just hope the ladies will like the pot-bellied men...

...of course. some of the best I ever had was on the couch.

crazy stuff!

I am seriously thinking of seeing if I can tie a USB or iPad connector into my factory car stereo. If so, I have a dash storage tray that is about perfect for the iPad. I may even be able to do a flip up holder to use it as a GPS.

The wall mount looks pretty cool...would be good for the kitchen to keep from getting your iPad dirty while cooking.

These things are really nice.

That ModulR case is the most durable and yet very functional case/adapter/stand/wallmount/shoulder strap I've seen anywhere yet.

I saw on these forums I think somewhere a gentleman said he was laid up in bed often and would like a case or holder style that could permit him to make use of the iPad with some type of adjustable stand that would hang over his bed or viewing area, but also be adjustable like an overhead desk lamp or work light.

With the right modifications or just adding the one metal backing like in the car photo to a desk lamp adjustable rod, might do the trick for him. I will have to locate him on here and be sure he see's this product.

I don't think so, for one reason, the main demographic for those back seat entertainment systems are people with small children. Sorry but I'm not giving my 3 year old an ipad that costs 500+ dollars to hold onto in the back of the car. Not that I have a 3 year old, my kids are grown. But I wouldn't give it to my hypothetical 3 year old grandchild either.
