Ford and Microsoft has been hard at work upgrading their lovechild named Sync 3.0. The latest version upgrades simply adds more features but maintains the easy-to-use voice-activated system. Simply press the button on the steering wheel and say one of the pre-recorded commands. That’s it. Simple and easy. Exciting video demo after the break.










I had a rental car with sync in it and it was pretty awesome. It worked amazing with my bluetooth phone and ipod to the point that I’ve considered buying a ford.
What I REALLY want is to be able to say:
“Sync, I want to find the route from my current location to the nearest Mc Donalds” or “cheapest gas” or whatever. The server or sync should be able to take that as a string, parse it, and then interpret the command.
I don’t want to deal with a “command based” interface. Sync > Command > Services > etc. Its not natural and is seemingly unnecessary.
