If you’ve been following Navigadget you must’ve heard about StreetDeck. It is basically a car UMPC that’s a colloborative effort with Intel. Now they pimped up this VW Passat and equipped it with Wi-Fi capabilities that let drivers stream music and download directions. The video demonstrates almost all the functionalities, including GPS. Just like most other GPS systems, StreetDeck uses regular maps, but it can also overlay Google Earth like satellite images onto your map.

You can learn more about StreetDeck on their own website and for further geekier details you join the forums at mp3car.
