Tool around with Microsoft, Ford
InternetNews | at | by Mike
Microsoft and Ford unveiled an in-car system called Sync that lets customers access a variety of digital products, such as cell phones, handheld computers, portable music players and other USB-based storage devices.
The product, based on Microsoft Auto software, allows customers to use voice commands for accessing contacts and performing other functions. Ford's contributions to the mobile application include a dashboard for visualizing connected devices and buttons built into the steering wheel for so-called hands-free access.
