The “Wow Factor!”


Few mobile electronics components cause the stir that mobile video does. Take in-dash receivers with monitors for example — if you’ve got one installed in your dash, the first time your passengers see the retractable monitor motoring out of the dash and into position, they won’t be able to help oohing and ahhing. Some systems offer touch-screen controls, which never fails to impress. Just the on-screen graphics alone are enough to produce delight in most people. The car is a fun environment in which to watch movies. It’s great to be able to watch your favorite movies in the backseat when the vehicle’s in motion. And it’s just as enjoyable to pop a DVD in an in-dash receiver, park the car, and start the show. If you go with a comprehensive setup, you can even get true 5.1 home-theater-style sound, which sounds spectacular in the cozy environment of the car.
