    AT&T aren't holding back on the news here at CES, today it's announced that it's leaping into bed with Panasonic and QNX to bring it's Watson speech-recognition technology to cars. Any cloud-connected car (it's happening, folks) that'll include the tech will respond to your voice commands to control your GPS or change channel when Rebecca Black starts playing on the radio. Initial testing of the tech is happening right now in Peachtree City, Georgia -- with Ma Bell providing the network and the others supplying the hardware. There's not too much more detail than that, but we can expect to see more of this in the coming months -- and we've got PR for you after the break.
