Опубликовано 30 ноября 2008, 22:03

Car computers and navigation systems are very helpful when travelling from place to place. They make it much easier to navigate, listen to music, and commincate while safely keeping your eyes on the road. Or at least they should!

Many people may not realize that your average Windows Mobile phone can make a very formidable in-car computer that supports many features that dashboard computers are barely capable of.

Pros
- Voice prompting navigation
- Live traffic
- Navigate to contacts as synced from Exchange or Outlook
- Plan trips without sitting in the car

- Voice recognition for dialing contacts
- Text to Speech announcements of incoming caller names, text messages, emails, and appointments.
- Voice recognition can be activated from Bluetooth headset
- Download and listen to Podcasts & Video podcasts while in the car

Cons
- No voice control for setting navigation destination addresses
- Music library limited to phone's storage capacity (which is expandable in many cases)
- Adapter required to connect to car stereo
