OT: Chrysler offers an in-dash computer
« on: September 25, 2006, 08:34:38 am »

This may be a milestone.  The first car computer offered by an auto maker?

From Autoweek:
"Chrysler has launched the latest salvo in the in-car infotainment wars by offering its MyGIG system as a $1,700 option on the 2007 Chrysler Sebring sedan.

"The system goes a step beyond iPods and other entertainment devices by putting a 20-gigabyte hard drive in the dashboard.

"MyGIG allows drivers to download up to 1,600 songs. Users also can put up to eight photos and an address book into the system. Navigation maps with a three-dimensional appearance also are stored on the hard drive. MyGIG incorporates real-time traffic information from Sirius Satellite Radio."
