    fully spec'd out without windows. about $1800. Thats not bad considering the possibilites you can do. even if you get it with a smaller harddrive and buy a 120gb from CompUsa (a little self promoting) it will be great. And that way you can mount a TB hard drive under your seat with avi's and mp3's no need for cd's or dvd's. hhhmmmmmmm. interesting.

    Looks like I am going to have to email their tech support again...my guess is that it will be like the other one, with limited indexing capabilities (after all, its only $140), but my fingers are crossed.

    I'll see what I can find out.

    OK, for $80 at Walmart I might just have to try this unit. If you read the comments on that page you will see:

    "I have had this installed and working awesome and flawless for over a year now...

    Here are some questions to answer that they do NOT tell you:

    1) It plays from FAT and FAT32
    2) SD and USB pendrive are awesome, songs may be kept in folders, individual.
    3) ID3 Tags! Wil display if present
    4) WMV and MP#, that's it...
    5) POWERED USB Port! I have a 60 gig laptop HD in a USB2.0 (usb-powered) adaptec case, and it powers and plays songs from ALL partitions (there are 3 F32 partitions on it)"

    So it looks like this unit might be that answer to my dreams. There is a strong possibility I will be going to Walmart next weeks to pick one up, that is, if they still have them....
