In the latest issue of "Digital Audio", they review the Sony CD-X5
car CD player.  One comment they had was:

	The author refused to get in a head-on collision with
	a Mack truck ... but he did travel over some rough
	terrain.  Some of southeastern New England's most
	cavernous potholes couldn't stop the CD-X5.

(Quoted probably without permission)

The CD-X5 is just a CD player, there is also the CD-X7 with an AM/FM
tuner.  Both need to feed an amp capable of driving speakers from
"line-level" inputs.

Overall it seems that car CD players ARE practical (the unit had a DIN
size faceplate) and now a reality (although no price was listed).
