AT&T CruiseCast: Bringing Your Living Room to the Car

AT&T's CruiseCast brings you 22 satellite TV channels and 20 satellite radio channels via an atenna that mounts atop your vehicle. The system is supposed to maintain reception even underneath overpasses and trees by automatically storing a few minutes of video. The cost of keeping your little ones and passengers occupied doesn't come cheap though: Antenna and receiver cost around $1,299. Monthly subscription should be around $28.
