Certainly looks interesting 
WP9900 is an Android black box with built in GPS for navigation or other GPS applications. With optional 3G and wifi module, WP9900 provides internet access as your car computer for APK market download. So far we have got Taiwan and Germany patent for future feature: â€phone connection.†With this unique feature, you can easily operate your mobile phone through WP9900 on your car’s monitor. And multi-language and resolution support has made WP9900 a universal Android unit. Cheers Ian

Hi, Guys!
I speak Russian, so I can translate if you need  .
I have D4 2012my with 7inch screen , but without navigation, so I spent some time here in Russia looking for possible aftermarket option.
Actually - there is not a lot.
Our Chinese friends only recently made up multimedia interface for D4 2012my - which allows to connect to the screen some navigation box, but will not work with CarPC (some technical people say that it will work in carpc more with resolution something like 400x240 - so it's not worth it). For 2011my and before - choice is much wide.
After installing that interface - here is example how it looks like http://www.mydean.ru/catalog/video_interfa...Dean_9003/ - you can choose - what type of navibox to plug in. And generally there 2 (actually 1,5) types of navigation boxes on our market now
There are quite some labels, but all of them are based on one model http://www.wondeproud.com/product_1_1_1.html
So it's WinCe 6 platform, which still supports some navigation software like Igo 8.3 and others
Another 0,5 option - it's already mentioned here - Android box WP9900, but as for now it does not work fine or even ok, as per feedback from rare users - it's not mature enough and sometimes requires hard reset even laying down at the table, not even in car, but looking already for some progress with software updates - people do expect that in few months it could make some competition to it's WinCe brother.
As for my self - I am planning to install WinCe navbox in nearest time and wait for Android to be fully ready and than switch to it (anyway the most expensive part of implementation - video interface, which is need in both cases)
Here is example of WinCe navbox installed into D4 from the same Unicar studio, who tried to make navibox menu in the same style of the Main Screen
Feel free to ask questions if there are any

Slightly off topic, but as you hail from Russia, what can you tell us about Q208 and Q216 recalls on the ZF gearbox in the Disco3?

What exactly do you need to know?
I know about it from forum (1 week ago I sold my D3 2006my with 193 000 km, but it was not recalled because those are valid for 2008-2010 MY. There few topics on lr-club.ru about it with quite some number of posts.
Generally q216 to be done first - software update and that test of gearbox to be doen with scanner and it it's fails - than under q208 - gearbox to be replaced with brand new.
Here is VIn range
VIN Range:
LA475977 – LA551511
LM282689 – LM334394
LS166497 – LS262775
There are people at forum, who informs that their gearbox failed test and they had it replaced of waiting for it
It is also mentioned that both campaigns are valid till 2015, so some people say that they will still use it and will try later and will be lucky to get replaced by new one at later car age

That's roughly what I made of it from the translations I read. Interesting that they go back to 2008 - is there an age or mileage limit on the factory warranty in Russia? And is there any indication if what is causing the fault?

3 years but not more than 100 000 km as factory limits
Regarding indicators - can not tell a lot I did not read that carefully, but some of victims, who had gearbox replaced were not even complaining about it, so it was simple computer check/test
