Submission + - Apple's next revolution should be in your car (infoworld.com)
eetc writes: InfoWorld's Galen Gruman surveys the sorry state of car makers' stereo and navigation systems: "It's clear that most of the auto companies that offer more than a car stereo want to lock you into their interface and services — as awful as they are. The rest don't care. The aftermarket stereo and nav systems are no better. Stuffed with even more buttons and light-show gewgaws, they're sure to keep your eyes off the road and may not work easily with your stuff. Add to that mix the split focus of also having to use a separate GPS unit in most vehicles, and you have to wonder what keeps our roads so relatively safe." The answer in one word: iCar. This is just the sort of broken market that Apple specializes in taking over.
