This week on Whipnotic's "I Want That" series, Al & Ed's Mr. Mobile shows off a pretty cool wireless internet solution designed specifically for mobile use. The Autonet Mobile router installs in your car and picks up wireless 3G and EVDO signals, providing a nationwide wireless web that can be shared with multiple computers in one car. I couldn't find any info on the manufacturer's site for service packages or coverage areas, but I have an email in via the company's website.
This is definitely a cool toy though, and one that has made it onto my want list (it's getting to be a long list...). Want one? Follow the jump to check out the video and get info on how to win your own Autonet Mobile router.

This weeks installment of "I Want That" features the Aquatic AV AQDVD3, a marine audio source unit capable of CD, MP3, and DVD playback, and features compatibility for iPod, satellite radio, and an SD card slot for further expansion. The AQDVD3 also has multiple zone capability, which is pretty handy for boats, and means you can play different sources to different areas of your boat (cabin, swim ladder, drivers seat). The AQDVD3 can also support up to three accessory wireless controllers, transmitting radio data out to three separate flush-mount controllers. The radio is also water-tight and Mr. Mobile proves it! Check out the video for a demo and an explanation of the radio's features in a pretty trick system in a custom 24' ski boat built by the guys at Al & Ed's (I'm a fan of the watertight 17" LCD!).
Oh yeah, and you can sign up to win one of these little guys too! Details in the video.
