Not that geeky, but stupid and a danger to other drivers yes. Do you read books while you drive as well?
 
If you have GPS on it or something, its pretty cool. Or if its hooked up to your stereo for MP3s? I dunno... But I'm a software developer, so take my opinion with a grain of salt :)

No more dangerous than checking your gauges or looking at the clock. The thing is you can't just stare at it as you drive. You need to be aware of what is around you. Some people can do it - some people can't. I've got my DVD player in my car, and I drive around and watch movies and music videos sometimes. Never had a problem. My LCD screen flips up and covers the middle air-vents. Looks mostly stock when it's closed though.
 
If you have to ask in the title of your thread... then you already answered your question.

I cannot really see why you need a PDA holder. Just chuck it in your pocket.

(crazy) The fact that you openly admitted that you drive and watch movies makes you the dumbest person I have ever encountered on this board... Even "Meatstick" is higher on the pecking order.

No really, what good do you think could come from making a statement like this. It goes against all logic.

If you believe that watching a movie while driving is the same as glancing at your guages we have nothing to talk about.:rolleyes:
