Microsoft and Fiat go Embedded
Interesting EE Times article passed on to me. Microsoft has linked up with Fiat to provide an in-car BlueTooth service. "Blue&Me allows drivers hands-free operation of cell phones, digital music players, and other devices via a push-to-talk button and speech-recognition technology".
What particularly interested me is that the software will be upgradeable, presumably via the mobile network. "Key feature is the upgradeable software that can accommodate changing customer needs for support of future devices as well as updates to industry standards."
