    Ford’s Sync AppLink is the missing link between driver and smartphone

    Posted on April 19, 2010 | No Comments
    Ford keeps rolling out updates to its Sync ecosystem, this time giving drivers hands-free control of select BlackBerry and Android apps with AppLink. The system will first be available for the 2011 Ford Fiesta later this year with the upgrade rolling out to all Sync-equipped vehicles next year.

    I don’t often find myself writing about new Alarm apps here on MobileCrunch, primarily because there are roughly 9 billion of them. This one is too clever to not mention, though. There’s nothing quite like waking up in the morning 20 minutes before you’ve gotta be at work, only to walk outside and find your car [...]

    wheelIn what may be considered an enormous oversight on Apple's part, tilt-to-steer racing games require weak technology lovers to hold their arms up in the air for tens of minutes. Tens!
