Default Sony Ericsson Developing Model Bluetooth Car

http://www.infosyncworld.com/news/n/4026.html

This looks so cool -- a car remote-controllable by your BT-enabled phone. Imagine being able to bond this with your Pocket PC? Think of the development applications! I hope it uses a supported profile...

"For the ones who want to experience car racing outside of the phone, the limited-edition Bluetooth CAR-100 is the perfect accessory for a Sony Ericsson Bluetooth phone. Not much larger than a matchbox, this little speedster has two gears and can be navigated from up to 10 meters� distance with a phone�s keypad or joystick."



Why do such a thing, you ask? W?BIC!

Default Cool

Cool! Now I can run this car along my dashboard while I drive AND use the phone at the same time! :crazyeyes: Seriously though, this could be fun. How about everyone brings their car to a meeting and does races on the table!

Mini RC cars were one of the "hot" gifts last Christmas too . . .

8O Finally, something that I'd buy Bluetooth for! They make these for the PPC and I'm there! I really like the table-top-race-at-meetings idea! :takethat:

Ditto - This is too COOL. nfire: Maybe we can get some table top races going between PDA's or PDA's against phones or just plain iPAQ against the world. :shocked!: :takethat:

This is cool!

I'd like to see a BT version of the mini-tank a guy at work brought in. It's one of those IR jobbies that you can even shoot at other tanks and stuff.

Now if they would just add one of those small cell-phone-size cameras to the front, and send the images back to your phone, you wouldn't even have to see it to drive it! The ultimate remote control!
