Nice work, mate.

Sorry, but I haven't read all the text. How will you get around the outer bezel issue?

That's pretty cool, but why a Mac mini when you could have done an Apple TV for less, and it would take up less room? All you would miss out on is Bluetooth and maps, but you could easily buy a Bluetooth headset for the money you save.

bluetooth and maps, that's a good chunk of stuff to miss out on in a car system.

bluephone elite would probably be cool in a car, I use it at home.

nice work!
