Cool portable navigation PC $269

[GnatGoSplat]

I saw this posted on a couple of the deals forums. It seemed like an interesting toy for the price. I'm picturing it could be integrated into the dash of vehicles with limited depth. Thoughts? I didn't buy it, but it seemed like a good basis for a Car PC project.
