 Last week we heard Nokia and Wolkswagon teamed up to bring Bluetooth to the new Passat, well, today Motorola and BMW are following suit providing their own solution. The car automatically downloads your contacts each time you enter your car, via Bluetooth wireless technology. In addition, they have also incorporated what they call “iDrive” into the steering wheel, allowing users to browse contacts, place and hang-up calls. Voice activation and voice dialing by name or number will also be featured.
Sounds very, very familiar to Tuesday's story!
