Fantastic job, well done.

I'd considered doing something like this with my Blackberry Playbook, but my main reason for wanting such a set-up is sat nav, and the PB is pants for that.

The one thing I would encourage anyone considering this to think about is the functionality once it's in place, not "just" whether it fits. Every function that can be done once it's mounted, can be done with the tablet sitting on the passenger seat. So if you're considering this, download all the software that you want first; configure any tethering (making sure that your contract allows it); then take the tablet out for a test run to check all works as you want it to.

If you're happy that it can be the carputer that you want, then go for it!

To end where I began, fantastic job Dave.
