" This phrase sounds funny and absurd, but looking at the MyFord Touch see more, you understand: they have an iPhone on wheels and it really impossible not to fall in love.
The new car is compatible with the shell Android, iPhone, Windows Mobile, BlackBerry, Palm and other devices. According to Ford, Sync on Bluetooh - is a revolutionary technology, which should have its own name - SYNC App Ecosystem.
Cars with MyFord Touch will be able to receive commands from the driver by voice or through applications for mobile phone, which syncs shell. However, the program interface very MyFord Touch is not so bad, and its functionality can be expanded installation of additional applications. For example, presented at CES 2010 instance was installed client for Twitter.
The shell displays the image on two displays. The first is the right of the speedometer and serves to control the radio, climate control settings, change lanes player. Second, with a resolution of 800x480, located on the center console and a touch. With its help you access to all applications and settings.
It is encouraging that MyFord Touch has a built-in web-browser and an excellent media player that supports all formats. Access to the Internet by using 3G-or 4G-modem, which can be connected to one of the two ports of USB. Needless to say there is Wi-Fi adapter and card reader for SD?

The interface is very intuitive: the different menu items are painted in distinct colors, but lost in the settings is difficult.
MyFord Touch does not look fantastic. All this for a long time was supposed to appear in the car, and many functions have long been used in expensive German cars: BMW 7-series, Audi A8, Mercedes S-class. But Ford, nonetheless, full of ambition. In the future MyFord Touch will be able to analyze the situation on the road, to warn of the danger, determine the speed of cars traveling near and, hopefully, the location of traffic policemen and cameras. And when such applications will be used in all modern cars, you do not have to reach for the "Hazard" to say 'Thank you' or signals to some bull on the road. You can directly express all the thoughts of other traffic participants.
