Google Search Integrated With BMW GPS navigation
September 03, 07 by You TeckAfter much talk, the BMW GPS navigation seems set to be available to its customers but it’s only available in Germany for now.
BMW is the only automobile manufacturer to offer the Google local search in the car - available now. For the first time, you can use this search function to look for local information everywhere in Germany with the world’s most famous online search engine. When you find what you want, the details are transferred to the navigation system and car phone at the touch of a button. The system identifies the location and destination of the vehicle automatically and displays the results in the vicinity with details of address, phone number and distance.
The system which is named ConnectedDrive is an all individual online, assistance and service systems the a car. Will we seeing more of these GPS system in budget cars rather than the luxury ones? I highly doubt so and there’s always the choice of getting a $200 GPS gadget and hook it up with your car.
