My latest upgrades....
Hey everyone,
I posted this thread on 6mt.net too so if you already saw it there, please bare with me.
Not leaving well enough alone, I made some upgrades to my audio (and now video) system.
I upgraded my deck to a new Panasonic CQ-MXE 9800U HU which boasts 60Wx4 and screensaver customization. My "old" HU was also a Panasonic CQ-MXE older model which the CD loading mechanism broke so Crutchfield is fixing now. Great bells and whistles with great performance and graphical interface.
I installed god_of_cpu's (aka Chuck) Xenarc 7" screen mod into the navi cubby. After some minor adjustments and SOME GREAT CUSTOMER SUPPORT from Chuck, it works like a charm. Beautiful LCD display and smooth raising and lowering of screen. www.digitalwheelz.com
Installed Pyle DVD player into upper glovebox using god_of_cpu's single DIn adapter. You need a DVD player or HU that is less than 6.5" deep. I originally bought a Blaupunkt ME3 DVD player but was waaay too deep. Looks very stealth, stock and plays great. The Pyle unit dropped right into the slot and is about 6" deep x 2" high x7" wide.
Let me know what you guys and gals think. Thanks to Chuck for all his help.

Very nice setup, the head unit is awesome. I just got my Digital Wheelz screen installed like a week or so ago, got my xbox connected to it and just waiting for time to wire in the dc-dc power supply for my carputer. Chuck (God_of_Cpu)does an awesome job with the customer service by the way. Very nice setup, especially because it's hidden when it needs to be
pics comming soon

We don't even have access to Sirius, XM or OnStar. The Eclipse AVN navi program won't work. Someone told me *maybe* the navigation software for the AVIC will work in Hawaii. Curiously enough, Circuit City sells Magellen Roadmates so I guess that navigation software works here in Hawaii.

Floor mat is a rubber carbon fiber replica from Kmart or Walmart $29.99 lol. I get asked that a lot from my pix......its not that special...lol
I just needed something cheap and fast to protect my stock carpets from getting too dirty. I don't have an Infiniti dealership locally (its on a different island) that I can buy all-weather mats from so when I was at Walmart one day, I saw these and said "what the heck".

Windows XP SP1
1 Ghz processor
DirectX 7 compatible 3D card
384 Mb of ram
The big thing is the 3D card, that allows UbiquityV to do all sorts of animations, transparency, and other cool effects at high resolutions and frame rates. Don't need anything great, but definitly something from nvidia or ati, like an embedded GeForce. Most of the Software features are done, but were working on smoothing out some of the kinks. A final version should hopefully be available by May and a basic hardware / software solution within 3 months after that.
