This is the device that triggered my message of a few days ago about
"ARM systems".

This thing is evidently a chumby device, if that means anything to you.

I went by BestBuy and fingerprinted one, but I think it was busted (I
couldn't get past the "select a wireless network" page).  Can't really
hold that against it, with it being a display model.  If you look for
it in the store, look near the Sony Dash "personal internet viewer".

It did have a 5V input, so it should be fairly simple to power it in the truck.

The motherboard is in the base of the L-shaped case.

the touchscreen is the resistive type, which means a matte layer on
top of the screen.

The price is approaching impulse-buy level.  If I had time for yet
another project, I might have pulled the trigger.  As it stands, I'm
waiting for someone else to go first. :)
