CNet has posted a video interview of MP3Car CEO Robert Wray demoing the Streetdeck hardware and software for CNet's Rafe Needleman at Demo '06 (screenshot at right).
The Streetdeck demo runs through most of the hardware and software functionality we covered in last week's post, but what is very interesting to see live is the Streetdeck's gestural operator interface, which makes great use of the touch-screen to simplify operation by the driver. (An exercise for the reader: Compare and contrast the user-friendliness of the Streetdeck user interface and BMW's iDrive. For extra credit, discuss the merits of the really tiny buttons on in-dash stereo units.)
