CES. - Car and Smartphone Coming Communication Breakdown. You’ll see the downside of your next car having a computer for a dashboard when you go to buy a new phone and realize it’s not compatible with that car.

Maybe this won’t be a problem. If you and your ride’s manufacturer share the same excellent taste in mobile devices for the next ten years, the touchscreen in your car should elegantly pair with your current phone, and your next one, and the one after that, to keep you on course and on the right soundtrack.
But the market could swerve, and you could find that your big four-wheeled computer doesn’t talk with that new phone you want (or that your company supplies to you). You’ll be dropped back to a 2010 level of car connectivity: resting the phone in a cupholder and listening to it call out turns over Bluetooth. If you’re lucky.
