Microsoft scores car industry win
http://www.allnetdevices.com/wireless/news/2002/04/29/microsoft_notches.html
Good day to be a Pocket PC passionate Swede, today! Volvo, the company that at least used to be Swedish, just announced that they will use Windows CE in their future in-car computing systems: "Automaker Volvo has committed to using Windows CE-based in-car navigation units in its S60, S80 and Cross Country model cars. The navigation devices were manufactured by Mitsubishi Electric Corp. ... "Putting Microsoft technology in our vehicles takes us one step closer to the end-to-end connectivity that our consumers are asking for," said Phil Bienert, Volvo's manager of CRM, e-Business and future product strategy."

This is more good news, similar to the announcement that the 2002 BMW 7 series has Windows CE. :-)

I had also heard that the Z3 in Germany had a PocketPC option? Was this just a regular PocketPC that was a sales incentive or something that was integrated? I have an M Roatster (super Z3!!) and would love to see something along the lines of a Clarion AutoPC for my little baby.
