Luxury carmaker Mercedes-Benz unveiled plans to integrate Apple’s Siri into its A-Class electronics system that would allow drivers access to their iPhone apps using voice commands.
The Drive Kit Plus electronics package will enable iPhone users to interact with Siri and their phones using the built-in “system screen,” according to the report.
It’s funny to think that people seem to prefer using Apple technology even when MS makes a solution..SYNC? 😛
Back when BMW added Windows to their iDrive system, the New York Times reported that the cars literally, while on the freeway at high speeds, would stop dead in their tracks. The CD player would spit CDs at the passenger.
It brought new meaning to the phrase “Blue Screen of Death.”
Siri, get me the phone number of that babe in the blue Porsche two lanes over…”
Why not integrate SIRI with your current Mercedes? ViseeO’s MB-4 Bluetooth upgrade adaptor already allow Mercedes owner to do that with ease and SIRI can be launched from console keypads.
