Digital license plates now available as option for Arizona motorists

Arizona drivers now have another option for their license plates, one that the tech savvy will love - electronic digital plates.

The new plate option is called Rplate Digital License Plates. According to the Arizona Department of Transportation, they are LTE wireless connected devices similar to a tablet. The license plate number is constantly displayed, and the technology allows for added messages such as "invalid," "stolen" and other notifications if needed.

    The base model is 500 bucks, the pro model is 800 according to the article. The obscene markup for what it is is definitely Apple-certified pricing scheme.
