All told, it's just less hassle (and cheap!) to plug in your iPod when you get in the car.
Frankly, as internet-dependent as I have become over the years, I cannot possibly see needing it in a car, ever. It's a neat gadget, but come on, really?
My mom is currently leasing an Impala (I was raised by boring people, ok?), and it has OnStar, with a phone. Basically, the only use that the phone function has seen was right after she first got the car, and got to say to everyone, "isn't this cool?" It has never been used for an actual necessary phone call.

Agreed, I hate OnStar. It's more useless than tits on Wes. Oh, hmmm. I suppose that wouldn't be so bad, something to go with that fine ass of his.

I think it should make the old dial-up handshake sound. It would be as meaningful as the GM business model.

And how?
So I'm failing to see how this is useful. We already have aircards from our wireless providers for internet on the go. Please, give me one good example of where this makes sense.

I've argued for those expensive in-dash systems before. You have to admit it is nice to have everything integrated into the vehicle with steering wheel controls and voice command buttons on the wheel. That, and it's a lot less likely to get stolen if it's not mounted to your windshield/dashboard.
Honda's nav system is just amazing and it usually runs you a $1,800 premium. Finance that over 5 years and you're looking at an extra $30 bucks a month, you'll never notice!
