[PRESS RELEASE]
Leaders and innovators from consumer telematics industry will gather in Las Vegas, Jan 9, 2012 to bridge the connected lifestyle gap by positioning the car as a highly personalized and intuitive mobility service.
Until now embedded wireless connectivity has been the preserve of the premium vehicle ranges. However, with Glen Lurie, President of AT&T’s Emerging Devices Division recent prediction that, “all cars will have embedded wireless in 3-4 years”, factory fitted connected infotainment services seem within reach of all vehicle classes for the first time.
