Coming soon an Internet Car Radio that will allow over 30,000 stations to be accessed [AM and FM from all over the world], plus Bluetooth, MP3 and USB connectitity! 

That should satisfy all you members globally!

Nice, although it is in double DIN form factor. Good for my Volvo, but it would require butchering the console in a W116. I'd like to see a 1x DIN version with a pop-out display/interface.

being a nerd, i would see this as pointless - I'd far rather a built in computer system with wireless broadband and a 10" police style touch panel montor to control it all. Then, you can do anything, including video conferencing while driving, ordering pizza online so its ready before you get there etc, not just listen to international radio stations ;)

Nice looking bit of kit, but where's the chrome and pin stripe.  :o

Have to agree with the article about high broadband costs in Aus.  That with the insult of a monthly subscription fee and that most music lovers have ipods I can't see the advantage of this unit.
