Interesting.

I wonder how compatible and straightforward to fit that is from a connectivity point of view. Presumably it won't talk to the DIS in any case.

If something like this became available that was a direct replacement and was able to communicate with the DIS, I'd be sold. The DIS sat nav information is the main reason I've stuck with my OEM RNS-D.

Alternatively, I would probably give up the DIS for a fully fledged car-puter. While Android based stuff is ok, and a step in the right direction, I'd much rather have a proper x86-64 'car-puter' that I can load my own OS and software onto; I'm amazed they're still relatively unavailable. For a few hundred quid, I can buy a fairly powerful Windows-compatible computer, just a few inches square, yet most car stuff is little better than a cheap tablet in terms of spec and performance, despite there being plenty of room inside a double-din unit for a very capable small-form-factor PC board. I've been tempted to build my own car-puter on a number of occasions and probably would if I had the time.
