    It seems that there may come a point where screenless and disconnected cars become more and more valuable. That and jailbreaking cars is going to become a requirement.

      Maybe so, but honestly gps on the dash makes my life easier routinely, and safer in that I don’t need to touch my phone or try to drive while reading a paper map.

      Also having the backup camera there is just a win for everyone.

      I don’t like the idea of needing to lose these things because advertising ruins them.
