    Why does an iPod that big (using the car as a reference, it appears to be about 8' long) need an external antenna?


    Also, what is that iPod's capacity and is the extra space also being used to extend the battery life?

    @OMG! Ponies!: "Also, what is that iPod's capacity and is the extra space also being used to extend the battery life?"


    No. In this rejected design prototype, the only function of the extra size would have been to allow for the iPod's battery to be user swappable. Now we can see that, by sealing in the battery, Apple did make the right decision and eliminated needless extra bulk

    Ok, I'm confused here??? Why? What? Who? Just exactly what is this; who are they trying to sell this to and why would anyone attach speakers that large to a VW?

    @Software_Goddess: Actually, it kinda looks like some pimped out lowriders I see around San Francisco, right down to the ridiculously large speakers. Indeed, the only difference I could think of is that this Automatica rig probably sounds a lot better...
