car visor plays dvds, video games, mp3s, mp4s
Do we really need any more distractions we need while we drive down the road? This over-the-top replacement sun visor for your vehicle manages to cram in just about everything but the kitchen sink.
Not only can the visor play DVDs, audio and video files, it can play retro video games on its 7-inch LCD 16×9 widescreen display. Just hook up one or two (included) gamepads and you can play a number of emulated 8-bit games (many of which come on an included disc).
The jack-of-all-trades plays DVD, SVCD, VCD, DVCD, CD, CDG, CD-R and CD-RW discs, as well as digital media files stored in MP4, MP3, WMA or JPEG formats. It can even send game or movie audio to your car’s stereo thanks to a built-in FM transmitter.
Thankfully, it looks like this is only available as a passenger (right hand) visor, so you shouldn’t be able to play while you drive (unless you happen to live in England or another right-hand drive part of the world, of course). If you’re ready to turn your car into an accident waiting to happen, you can pick up the system from Chinavasion for just over $100.
[BTW: I don't remember James Bond shooting hoops in Tomorrow Never Dies either].

I think it’s a great idea. Passengers in the back have their own TV why not the poor sucker in the front. Even though it is not available for the driver’s side I am sure it can be retrofitted.
What a ridiculous item. The driver would still be able to see it and whats to stop you buying it from a country with left hand drive cars and fitting it in a right hand drive car? More danger on the roads and it should be banned!
such item should be banned ASAP
