The Future Of The Connected Car


Most of us who watched Knight Rider as a kid expected that by 2011 we would be driving sleek, self-aware cars like KITT - cars that would take us seamlessly from A to B while cracking witty one-liners.

Though that future has not yet come to pass, things are starting to get exciting in the in-car technology space. Connected cars are hitting the consumer market in a price bracket that makes them a realistic option for many.

Pay attention to the road?
But the road is nowhere near as cool as all this technology!
Let the other drivers worry about me - I'm too busy watching a DVD and checking up on my Facebook status (soon to be "OMG - I just crashed!"), and twittering about setting the humidity level in the glovebox, and trying to understand all these settings!
Technology rocks!

Yeah! How can texting while driving be illegal when THIS is legal. I hate cars like this. Ridiculous.
