How would one go about doing this? Also, would it be worth it?

Wait for the 7" iPad mini that'll be released next month. I will be purchasing a 4G version and building it into the dash.

Do you get that bored in your car? I guess it would be nice if I frequently had to sit in my car waiting for something.

If you live in san fran or new york city
you'd spend significant amount of time in traffic being bored and bored and bored and possibly angry

I live in NYC and the last thing I'll do is go play on my tablet while driving in traffic.

I just listen to music and enjoy the car

Ewwwww... why get an iPad?

I heard iOS6 has a horrible maps system..

Galaxy Tab LTE should work great.

I also heard people have been searching for normal things such as a Chinese restaurant that is 100ft away and it has pulled up one thousands of miles away.

I wouldn't count on it... Apple releases on a very strict schedule.

iPads are too big for a head unit application. That Head unit that was a full unit with Android built in was badass, but it was running 2.2... A DoubleDin head unit with ICS built in would be sweet.

I would like to wait for a Surface tablet with win8 on it.

LOL at needing to be visually entertained in the car while driving. Nothing personal, OP, but if your eyes aren't on the road, you shouldn't be either. I say this to anyone and everyone.

Bumper to bumper traffic is the worst place to be distracted no matter the circumstance. Pedestrians playing frogger, people stopping suddenly and all kinds of other shitty hazards. Pedestrians playing Angry Birds already bump into things stupidly it will happen in a car. Mobile devices are just adding to Darwinism.
