Why is there no post about this in CrackBerry?

Interesting to hear.

Perhaps the reason it's not posted on CrackBerry is that it doesn't mention any specific BlackBerry devices; it simply says the demonstration/display will be at the BlackBerry booth.

Love this a lot. Sooo many possibilities for Blackberry integration in vehicles... Bridge is HUGE for this. Imagine being automatically connected to web apps in your car (internet radio, weather, traffic, maps) just by having your phone in your pocket! Hook up to cloud services so you can listen to all your stored music through your car stereo, play videos on the tablets in the back that are stored on your home PC. All this without having to pay for some sort of "online service package" for your fancy new car. Your BlackBerry data plan would handle it all and it would all be done through the Bridge app automatically.

RIM is not going anywhere and the fact that QNX systems are already present in millions of automobiles means that if Bridge can work with these in-car systems, the BlackBerry brand should see huge improvements in the future.

Isnt QNX owned by RIM? It would make sense on a CrackBerry site to include this (since they include pretty much everything else RIM lol).

Very cool! Would be awesome if more of this stuff were being implemented now and RIM could say that Blackberry and Playbook integrate into vehicles easily. Would be a good selling point.

Did I see 3 BlackBerry PlayBooks in the Porsche concept car or were my eyes playing tricks on me?

And those aren't playbooks in the picture? RIM doesn't own QNX?

The downplays the downplays...

Pretty cool. The Panamera and full size range rover already have QNX in the cars and I can't wait until the trickle down effect. I can't even explain it but all the gauges on the dashboard are just imagine shown on the screen. Really cool.
