Apple Thoughts: iMazda

"This YouTube video did come to our attention on April Fool’s Day, but it is nonetheless convincing — not to mention really cool. In it, you meet Jonathan Oxer, his Mazda RX-8 and his iPod Touch, with which he controls basic functions of the car via WiFi. He locks and unlocks the doors, starts and stops the engine, opens the trunk and displays a telemetry window that shows off data like RPM, speed, temperature, battery voltage and fuel level (the heavy British accent and use of the word “petrol” may hint at Jon’s country of origin)."

I was thinking about how cool this all is. My new truck has OnStar and I'm wondering how long it'll be before GM releases an app that'll run diagnostics on your car through your OnStar system (something they're able to do anyway). I think any guy my age has KITT (the car from Knight Rider) envy, and would love to have as KITT-like a car as possible.
