Forget about sticking your laptop on the passenger side front seat if you want an in-car computer, you can now have a real Windows XP or Vista computer installed where your car radio would normally go for the complete computer-on-wheels experience.

Theoretically coming September is Apple’s iPhone (and iPod Touch) OS 2.1, which is supposed to have “Core Location” GPS services, more bug fixes (which OS 2.0.1 didn’t really fix) and the “push notification” services that are a substitute for programs running in the background – but this has just been taken out OS 2.1 beta 4. Will 2.1 be a panacea for suffering OS 2.0 users – or just more purgatory?
