You’ve all missed the point.

When you’re stuck at the side of the road waiting to be towed to the dealer, you can carry on your business with the internet connection.

Just gotta have faith that your battery isn’t the problem item

It’ll no doubt be extremely reliable as well, just like their cars…

what ever happened to…….
mobile phones for phone calls
TV’s for watching TV
Cameras for taking Photos
computers for internet connection

honestly,
it makes me wonder how people could have such a need to compromise on the items purpose rather than having the full bred version.
its really just for showing off if you ask me.

remember the fridges with internet built into them?
who is going to stand in the kitchen infront of the fridge to surf the net?

and i also ask who is going to go out to the garage and surf the net on a smaller screen then the household PC

Ah, this is actually what it does:
“Using either Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity passengers can link to an on-board 30GB hard drive that can be stuffed with music, video, and pictures. Using a cell phone with a data-plan passengers can also connect to the Internet using Chrysler’s Uconnect technology.”
Useless I still say.

Useless.
Wi-Fi and a connection fee? Thats a first.
Wi-Fi would be useless in Australia considering we have no large city networks as do other countries.
Maybe it you mean 3G? Data on 3G is very expensive in Australia.
Whats wrong with a descent phone browser. The iPhone is out July 11 and has the best portable web browser (safari) to date. Also supports Wi-fi and 3G.
