No, this is exactly what I'm thinking.

Dual screens up front, one for GPS, the other for everything else,
like mythvideo, mythradio, mythmusic.
The rear screens are independant, so that I can play different shows
on each one. Two bluetooth headsets for the audio for the back seats
as I could get tired of Dora the Explorer or Baby Einstein on a long
trip. Option to play the same video on all three screens if you go
somewhere with all adults.
XM radio for the radio, as I hate trying to find a radio station when
I leave my small corner of the world.
Wifi and maybe later OBD-II.

I'm ordering parts over the next few weeks, and have a nice microatx
board from www.ibt.ca that will handle a P4 because I want the
horsepower for a system of this size.
www.mp3car.com has tons of good info.
