Lads,
I was thinking of getting some kind of screen put in the car to watch tv. I was thinking of something that would fold down from the roof (I've no sunroof). I've been told that reception for tv is rubbish and I'd be better off getting a dvd player. Further to that I'm told to get a head unit that will have a 7" (I think) screen to play dvds.
I was telling a friend today and she asked why don't I just get a small laptop so I looked up Dell and there is a nice laptop called Mini 10 that seems to be ok: http://ireland.dell.com/ie/en/home/...?refid=inspiron-1012&s=dhs&cs=iedhs1&ref=lthp
This has a 10 inch screen and you can take it with you. It says it has a 'tv antenna in'. I'm half thinking if the tv reception is any good at all, it might be better as i'm not planning to sit 2hrs in the car watching a DVD on a 7" screen but would more likely watch Sharon Ní Bheoláin reading the news for a few minutes. You could also plug in a mobile broadband USB key to pick up internet as well in it although I don't think that one has USB.
It could be stored under the seat out of harm's way as well.
What do ye think?
