Yes, putting in Premium fuel is probably the downfall of the Smart in the USA. But there is no diesel option available, so there goes the reason to get a Smart in the first place.]]>Apr 1st 2010 10:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/01/smart-cars-smart-drive-kit-for-iphone-demonstrated-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/01/smart-cars-smart-drive-kit-for-iphone-demonstrated-video/Wow, I didn't realize Smarts in the US ran on petrol rather than diesel. I really love them despite the horrible transmission, but the only reason to buy one is if you live in a really congested city, and have the money to pay the premium for it.]]>Apr 1st 2010 12:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/01/smart-cars-smart-drive-kit-for-iphone-demonstrated-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/01/smart-cars-smart-drive-kit-for-iphone-demonstrated-video/Or maybe Americans started thinking about what would happen if a SMART car got hit by one of the many full-sized pickups on our roads?

Except, when you just decline the call, the iPhone won't quit the current app.

I still don't understand why iPhone OS quits the current app when receiving a call. They should've made the green top bar the standard for receiving calls when an app is active. Meh.

Anyway, that app looks good. They should make a version with offline maps, though. Oh, wait, Navigon has just to become more finger-friendly.]]>Apr 1st 2010 8:34AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/01/smart-cars-smart-drive-kit-for-iphone-demonstrated-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/01/smart-cars-smart-drive-kit-for-iphone-demonstrated-video/

I'll bite - how much does the Android cradle for the Smart cost?]]>Apr 1st 2010 10:36AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/01/smart-cars-smart-drive-kit-for-iphone-demonstrated-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/01/smart-cars-smart-drive-kit-for-iphone-demonstrated-video/

Mind you, the iPhone will not connect with the Golf's Bluetooth system for calling, which is damned annoying.]]>Apr 1st 2010 10:35AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/04/01/smart-cars-smart-drive-kit-for-iphone-demonstrated-video/http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/01/smart-cars-smart-drive-kit-for-iphone-demonstrated-video/
Of COURSE!

Spend $200+ dollars on a device that will rarely get used, isn't highly portable, and is commonly stolen. Yup. That's the way to go.

A now for a Snopes moment…
For those concerned about Smart safety, don't trust the e-mail forwards of Smart vs. semi accidents. Check the images carefully. In every photo I've seen, typically a wheel will survive to where I can count all 5 lugs. The Smart only has 3. Stop the FUD.]]>Apr 1st 2010 8:41PM
