Cellphones are a big enough threat, and iPods didn't help any--but TEXT?!

Guess it's better that it's all integrated and by voice command. More than once I've had to swerve around kids texting obliviously on their phones while driving.

That's like having to select CD as a source after you put the CD into the player.

Does Microsoft have no user interface experts?

That's all sorts of hotness right there.

Are you trying to flatter yourself by saying some hacker will go out of his way to hack your stereo? Wow.

I wonder if some people think this will happen to them if they get a Zune or an Xbox.."Oh man I'm so gonna get hacked on this MS product, you know it's got to have security flaws all around"... Oh man now I have a story to share with my fellow geeks.

That's something that is both cool and innovative, sort of. And it works. And it's from Ford. Next, can we have a Karaoke function for everyone who thinks they are invisible when they sing in the car?

The voice commands is interesting until you ask for a song title which 20 different bands use (not to mention cover versions). WiFi is pretty nice, but knowing this is built on a Windows Mobile platform, it'll probably be a downfall once the hacking begins.
