Good, let's build a self-driving car (Score 1)

It's a race between automakers adapting to fast moving CE v/s CE makers building h/w made for car. However simple it looks, Google/Apple have a lot of catchup. For example, FM Radio @ 300kmph is a different ball game (diversity, multiple tuners, alternative channels, Digital Radio etc.,). Multi zone audio/video is yet to catchup on Phones. My 10yr old Honda just fails to fail (touch wood) and the same goes with the infotainment unit in the car. On the contrary, I have been forced to change my fruit/desert phone every 2yrs (broke or cheap upgrade). And the app that I bought, for 99cents, is not usable on the new phones either because of super high resolution or screen format. The car makers will still have to build a ton of electronics (with display) for Driver Assistance, Comfort controls, Cluster (Self Driving !!) etc., and none of this can tolerate the availability/reliability of phones. In terms of complexity, Phone/Audio features are really simple when compared to rest of the electronics in modern day cars. While Google/Apple is busy taking taking over the Phones/Music player functions in the car, Automakers are busy building significantly complex electronics/display-devices for cars. BTW, what happens to my driving directions, when I forget my phone at home !!
