BMW working on better iOS integration



Now, BMW has announced that their cars will take advantage of "iPod Out," a new feature of iOS 4. Essentially, it allows a very iPod-like UI to appear on the car's in-dash display, making navigation, playback, etc. instantly familiar to the iPod owner. No more learning the car manufacturer's UI vs. the iPod's. BMW's solution will also add support for genius playlists.

Some say, he can see a speed camera 10km away...

Now they say that the improvements is not retrofitable...

I wonder what hardware changes that needed to make this work. The improvements sounded more like a software update...
