Anyone ordered the entertainment system?

I don't think I have seen anyone here had the option of the entertainment system.

Am I wrong on that?

i have seen at the dealer here in hong kong. its an insane 15.5K option. moreover i the dvd player doesn't work here because of some weird region locking thing (atleast thats what the dealer told me).

Unless you have younger kids, not really worth it imo.

I do have the entertainment system!




Here at Brazil you can´t build your car the way you want ( actually you can but it takes too much time to arrive ), so the rear entertainment system is an "standard option"...

Yeah, I think the two ipads would be a better choice. Even with two 3G ipads, the price would still be cheaper than the entertainment system package.

Agreed, my wife said the same thing to me. Get an iPad when we need it. Griffin just put out a good case as well: http://www.griffintechnology.com/pro...inemaseat-ipad

I went to that link but I don't see that it has any option to choose the color. Do they just come in one color?

thanks for that link, i think the ipad would be a better choice in my opinion, at least for me. I watch movies on my laptop (connected to my plasma) more than i do dvds. now just gotta try to find some Dora or Mickey Mouse Club online. was sold on getting the rear seat entertainment before seeing that link.

this will give me an excuse to buy an ipad. i really do not like the look of aftermarket screens on cars but i think i can deal with it to save $2,200.
