With a popular car show going on today, there were some cool tech surprises, but the UVIA M100 mobile infotainment device from Unwired Vehicles is one of the sweetest. The box uses EV-DO mobile broadband from Verizon or Sprint to deliver rear-seat passengers in your vehicle a selection of entertainment apps along with broadband Internet access so you can check your e-mail, IM, check your fantasy teams and stream music and video. These products can be either installed in the head rests, of the headliner. The only thing you will need to be aware of is that you’ll need a 3G wireless broadband antenna is mounted externally to increase reception quality and bandwidth throughput.
The UVIA M100 will be available in Arizona, California and Nevada in December 2006 and will be available nationally in early 2007 for $3,499.
