The system provides multiple satellite radio channels, satellite television, a GPS system, DVD entertainment, the ability to upload various types of flash media/presentations for viewing or modifying its content, and the like. The system enables passengers of a mobile vehicle to control, view and/or listen to each chosen audio and/or visual output either collectively and/or individually. The system also provides assistance and direction to at least a driver such as by displaying faults or errors that occur in the normal operation of the vehicle. The system can also provide direct telephonic, video, GPS, and satellite on board support to the vehicle drivers and passengers.
