I was wondering if it would be posible to splice into my car's atenna for my airport on my ibook. This way I can upload/download files from my car. I'm planing to use my ibook for MP3 use in my car. I already got the sound connected to my stereo system in the car. If I can setup the airport right I would need to lug my ibook inside just to copy a few MP3s over to it.
The antenna on most Mac laptops runs up into the screen. No real reason you could'nt pull it out and extend it to attach to the car. Maybe you could even rig a custom external antenna port on the iBook.

well i went ahead and tryed it and it works. Funny thing is I picked up some one elses wireless router. Oh well nothing I can do about that. Well yes I can, I can laugh about how funny it is that people buy wireless devices and don't know how to set them up correctly. If you're wondering the answer is no I didn't try to leech off that connection.
