I think I have decided to go with a VoomPC
I want to purchase a stage 2 Car PC from mp3car.com.
I also plan on purchasing a Lilliput 7".
I won't add GPS until later on.
I plan on using windows xp.
I have a few questions.
How do I power the Lilliput?
What's the best way to get my VoomPC audio to my speakers?
Wouldn't I have to turn on my radio in order to hear my pc audio?
Would this conflict with my radio audio?
I see the white connector on rear right of the VoomPC plug in the picture below. What does the white connector connect to?

"This complete Car PC system comes with a Jetway VIA C7 1.5GHz Mini-ITX Motherboard, M1-ATX automotive power supply, VoomPC Enclosure, 512MB DDR2 (PC2-5300) Memory and an 80GB SATA 2.5" Hard Drive. This Car PC system comes pre-assembled and tested. All you need is to install your own Operating System, Software, and Touch Screen LCD. This Car PC system does NOT include a CD-ROM. If you need a CD-ROM, we suggest the Ultra Slim External Enclosure USB 2.0."

I don't know the specifics with the Voom Pc, But, here are some of your answers.
I power my liliput with a 12v straight from the m1-atx power supply which looks like your bundle comes with. (more regulated power supply then going straight from 12v car battery).
2. Depends on if your radio has an aux in. if it does your all set, just turn your hu on to aux. Alternatively, if you have amps, you can bypass your hu and go straight to your amps.
3. the white connector looks like it goes to power supply.
My advice to you is to spend a lot more time on the mp3car forums, based on your questions you got a lot of research to do, and trust me on this, it takes a lot of fine tuning and problem soliving to get a good in car set up. Just my 2cents which is based on having a car pc in my z for 5 years.
