First, a HUD should consider real estate to precious, and should never waste valuable space just to show you the name of the windshield.<BR/><BR/>More important, though, is the message in the box: "Recommend Upgrading to OS 2.7 Look at Target and Blink Rapidly to Install" That kind of alert is much better suited to display when you start or stop the engine, rather than while driving.<BR/><BR/>Worse yet is the thought of upgrading the software in your car *while driving*! The only thing more frightening would the same feature on an airplane.<BR/><BR/>On a side note, even with all this high tech gadgetry in the car, which advertisers such as Starbucks can clearly use to their advantage (bad idea on its own), there are still roadside billboards. How quaint.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
