Two of my favorite companies

sunchild · 10-17-2005, 10:48 PM

If there were to be any two companies that could work together, you know who it would be?

BMW and Apple.

Imagine if they designed cars and electronics together. wow.

Agni · 10-17-2005, 10:58 PM

and google!!

they can provide the sattlite maps, and destination search functions on the iDrive.

Now that would be an awsome nav!

I would have got the iDrive if it used OSX.

My favorite company is Smuckers. They invented the combination peanut butter jar with jelly. Absolutely prodigious.

I have to agree with you wholeheaartedly sunchild - I would ache for that. Especially as I am sitting at my beautiful Powerbook G4 typing this.

Apple just know how to design stuff that looks cool, is smart and intuitive to use. They should start an ergonomics and human machine interface consultancy, they would make a lotta money!

Like I said in another forum I think it is evidence that the car was rushed to market a little too early.

I remember a Steve Jobs presentation, I think, earlier in the year, and he mentioned that BMW was working on a new iPod integration solution. E90Fleet talked a bit about it and may know more about upcoming E90 iPod integration.

That's the most imbecilic thing I've ever heard!

E90-4life · 10-19-2005, 10:48 PM

Apple and BMW would be very interesting, but I'd have to stop and ask myself if I really wanted a car inundated w/ gadgets..... more electronics, more problems.

I looooove the new iMac. I am thinking of getting one to be at the centre of my home network. But I don't want to get a PPC one when the Intels are around the corner...
