Product News / Reviews RIM converts iDrive to Blackberry Remote Control

I didn't find this so far on the site. A news article I ran across today which may interest (with demo videos).

If there's one thing business types love more than their BlackBerry, it's their BMW -- or so we're told. It makes all sorts of sense, therefore, that the two companies would partner up to help the things they sell communicate with each other more effortlessly. Using Bluetooth MAP (Message Access Profile), BlackBerry devices can now beam emails and contacts over to BMW's iDrive dash system, where the driver can listen to his messages via a text-to-speech option or make calls using the car's speakerphone.

Very pimp, hopefully this can be added to Android too.

That's amazing! Thanks for sharing the story
