Device & Conquer: Connected Cars

Meet the biggest piece of personal tech you own.

Connected Cars

If you think a car is high tech because it has Bluetooth and an iPod connection, you're in for a big surprise.

Yes, a "high-tech car" used to mean an iPod connection, hands-free calling, and GPS navigation. Now, that's almost quaint. Cars are getting connected like every other device in your life: wirelessly to the Internet. Navigation, communication, entertainment, and telematics all get better, but there will be some bumps along the road.

In this episode of Device & Conquer, we'll show you a sampling of how connected cars work and get you ready to contemplate owning one when you buy your next new car. It's not a matter of if you'll own a connected car, but when and to what extent.
