A long time ago, I speculated that it would be damned cool if Apple were to produce an in-dash head unit that integrated with the iPod so seamlessly as to replicate all its functionality onto a touch-screen interface as natural as the iPod's own. You'd slide the iPod into a slot in the device and everything would magnify onto a bigger screen with controls appropriate to the act of driving.
There have even been occasions where companies have brought solutions just like this to market. But my idea predated actual touch-screen iPods, and thus there's been room for someone—figures that it would be Ferrari—to come up with something like... this:
Now that is damn cool.
Well, except for the whole sideways thing.
