    There will be a new MyCars page in BlackBerry World, just like you have Music or MyWorld. You will be able to add your cars, connected via Bluetooth and link apps to them.

    You will be able to add all your vehicles by selecting your car make from a drop down.
    You will then be able to set a primary car.

    I wasn't sure if this was coming or not when I was looking at the Bluetooth changes in 10.2 which improved the way BlackBerry 10 talks to cars, but it seems BlackBerry is getting ready to launch car apps through its app store.

    I don't doubt you but what's your authority - is there a source here about the new 'auto' category?

    Grain of salt considering they can't even get any real app developers on board. Of just bb releasing the apps they will work but be nothing stellar

    So you're calling everyone who has made apps so far for BlackBerry not a real app developer? Wow, thanks a lot.

    This one is. I've seen KIA as well and I'm pretty sure Mercedes-Benz, Jeep, Porche, Bentley and a host of others are in there.

    QNX is already implemented in with over 60% of the car manufacturers. You don't think they would make an app if there is a new revenue stream involved for them with OTA updates in car?

    I just wish this would be fully rolled out already. I've already started seeing apple and vw or Chevy ads promoting siri in car. If BlackBerry can get it together soon enough they can be ahead of or with the curve on this exploding market. It would be nice if car dealers were talking up bb10 since carriers and their sales people can't seem to do so.

    this is fantastic news! there was some work with BMW R&D that's been going on for over a year now for proper integration into the infotainment system.. again another one of these "I can't share the details", but if I could afford a 7series with some of the optional mobile connectivity kit being developed, it'd be on the top of my shopping list right now

    Perfect avatar. You are such a downer. Never anything positive to say. Must be lots of fun at parties too! Sad to share a province with you. Had enough?

    Not what I said. They have a hard enough time getting developers on board for BB10 let alone make apps for the car portion..

    It's not your province so don't really care what you think. Time for you to head to Hastings maybe..

    Parties are for kids, maybe someday you will grow up!

    Not a Downer a realist. Since when has blackberry given anyone a reason for something positive to say about them lately?

    Why live in some fluffy cloud land when their future is bleak. QNX might be the only thing left soon enough. As a shareholder I can bash them all I want! Everyone has been screwed over by the clown show!

    Actually, this is exactly what you said:
    Grain of salt considering they can't even get any real app developers on board.
    So don't try to reverse it.
    I personally don't care if it isn't what you meant to say, because what you said was plain rude.
    A lot of people but hard work into this platform, and you go and put them down a peg.
