Re: Vehicle Ecosystem
@afwriter It really boils down to questions of engineering and planning for what the impact would be. Perhaps the bulky ones could have some kind of cushioning that makes them safer.

Re: Vehicle Ecosystem
There is also the safety aspect. I can't believe that bulky headset would be beneficial in a collision.

Re: Vehicle Ecosystem
@Ariella could not agree more it would be nice if they thinking ergonomics first with easy to use simple smoth lines while looking good/trendy on the user... or for user... if the item useful and have nice attractive colors and design - everyone will use it... - the way I see it...

Re: Vehicle Ecosystem
@afwriter, I agree - I like the functions of headsets but not the "Gear". Don't you think that there may evolve further devices that will replace headsets as we move forward; new technology applications with satellite, lasers, etc.? At least I hope so - that would be the best of all worlds!

Re: Vehicle Ecosystem
@afwriter I'd venture a prediction on the headset that not only will they become more comforable but more fashionable-looking. Companies should be working with designers on that, especially if they car to open the market to those who prefer not to look geeky.

Re: Telcos Can Drive Connected Vehicle Ecosystem
Not impossible, thank goodness 5G is right around the corner to help with all the data something like this would need.

Re: Vehicle Ecosystem
That's pretty cool, when I read "headset" I was like Ohhh Nooo, but with their practical projection of 5 - 10 years I'm guessing that a headset will become something you could comfortably wear while driving by then.

Re: Telcos Can Drive Connected Vehicle Ecosystem
@afwriter smart parking apps are already available, I'm sure. The real trick would be a crowdsourced one that allows people to know where free -- not metered and not in parking garages -- are availabe in real time.
