note: i'm not sure if we are going in the right direction. i just dont think that mobile media..mobile industry should necessarily be driving the car industry. car companies should be creating their own media tech that fits within the context of cars, drivers, passengers etc, as opposed to how handheld mobile devices themselves along with user behaviors of these products can be inserted into cars. just a thought: information access will be ubiquitous--smart cars--people will be able to talk to their cars--phones built into cars, so that hand head/or even handsfree mobile devices will be obsolete. user empathy needs to be explored in how this tech transfer can be done safely, effectively, in a way people can easily adapt to--familiarity with existing product/tech/habits, which fit driver/pssenger behaviors, routines, car culture...etc.
