[QUOTE="Droid, post: 19187, member: 220"] I'd imagine it's extremely unlikely that you're going to be able to add any features to Sync that aren't specifically provided by Microsoft/Ford. As far as going to MyFordTouch...no way. It's all proprietary software, and there isn't much (if any) hacking community that I've found for Sync. The best/only hope would be for them to issue an upgrade. They do issue software upgrades (you can get them at syncmyride.com, not sure if any are available for the Raptor yet). These tend to be bugfixes or very minor feature enhancements from what I understand. Could do an aux input and use the Nav display for a car-mounted PC display. I don't think any of the aftermarket goodies offer anything better than a composite (i.e. crappy) input to it though. Display resolution on the Nav is 800x480 from what I've read, which would be adequate. Touch screen would not be operable in such a scenario though (can't think of a way to get touch input back to connected PC). Thus don't see any advantage in doing it. [/QUOTE]
