August 31, 200718 yr That's pretty cool, we probably won't see anything like this for a while but its neat to see what they're looking at for the future.

September 1, 200718 yr United States Patent Application 20070194902 from Microsoft is titled an "adaptive heads-up user interface for automobiles." The patent app says that the heads-up display (HUD) could be used for a variety of tasks, or "elements," like displaying navigational information, information about a driver's health, speed of the car, and media such as iPods or CDs. Microsoft is gonna offer a HUD that accepts iPod. Hmmmm.
