I think we have all seen the ads for the satellite TV systems that cost thousands of dollars. Fine for the wealthy amongst us but what about us regular folk?

One company is working on a much smaller , economical system, $470, one year free then $12.95/month.

Although its initially intended for the minivan market / kids programs I can see this growing.

Sirius, Chrysler team up to put satellite TV in your back seat
By James R. Healey, USA TODAY

In what's likely to start the newest in-car technology race, Chrysler and Sirius Satellite Radio (SIRI) announced Thursday that Sirius will beam three kids' TV channels to the back seats of 2008 Chrysler minivans, SUVs and big sedans with the right hardware.

Put a head in that back seat and there'll be no reason to leave. People can be conceived, born, live their lives, and die -- never having to leave the back seat.

Aint the automobile great?
 
I think it'll be a great addition to our boat. Sometimes being away for a weekend we wouldn't mind having regular programs.
