As for cars, I am pretty sure that in 5 years all of them will have something like the MSM5000 in them when they are made. This would give both voice and HDR data comm directly into the car and then as an added option (like Onstar or the Mercedes SOS service) you will get a full time G* link for dire emergencies. In my Mercedes, it will call the SOS center and give my postion via GPS if the airbags go off, if the alarms goes off for an extended period, or if the SOS button is pressed for any reason. I see the cars as having this great comm center in them which can access alot of things like maps, nearby info, special sales deals, etc. I envision aot of this paid for by the companies who are trying to sell you something over this channel. Imagine your in an away city and you want to find out about restaurants. You dial into the system to find it and one of them offers a 2 for 1 dinner if you come by in the next hour. Alot of this will go on. I see the data center as being vital to the car owner in 5 yeras. I can tell you that I have grown to rely on my Mercedes Map and Nav system alot.
