It doesn't have to be Android to please me, but at least something reasonably open, which lets me work with open data, and regular formats.
Having to submit your entire digital existence to one company and the locked down gadgets they make is a big nono. A big enough nono to make me back out of a car-deal.
- camus2 13y agoToday's consumer cars are the most "closed" products. One used to be able to do DIY repairing on most of them ,now constructors do everything so that people cant repair anything by themself,just like Apple products. Parts are sealed,or you need Tool X to open this or that,and of course it is not sold to the public...
- MBCook 13y ago> I'm not buying a car with built-in systems based on iOS. I seriously doubt that's the case. I'm guessing this is a set of APIs for turning over the screen and input to the iPhone so it runs the show, high quality Apple experience and all. I'll be amazed if this is a full Microsoft Sync level car OS and not just a tighter integration the generic Bluetooth.

Is there any car with a built-in system that lets you do these things? And if there were, does that mean you wouldn't consider any other car on the market?
