	I'd have to go back and try to locate the URL for it but I recall that
while living back in San Jose, CA there was an article put online about
a local guy that had equiped his Honda Element with a small  embedded
Linux system with a web cam, GPS, WiFi AP and EDGE broadband along with
a UPS that recharged off the alternator. I'll see if I can't find it
again. I recall I found it while researching the embedded system he had
used.
