Hi Joe,

I have one of the "old" I-Openers and have modified it with a hard drive,
faster processor. I have Windows running on it and use DeLorme Street Atlas and
a Gamin GPS. I haven't mounted the I-Opener in the van yet because I'm in the
middle of a Subaru conversion. I saved the van from the wreaking yard since it
had a blown engine. So for now I just using the I-Opener like any other
computer. I don't know anything about the "new" I-Openers. Can they still be
hacked?
