Palm Pre Touchstone Automobile Mod

Posted By: Ryan Kairer Thursday, June 18, 2009 5:24:34 PM

Engadget has spotted one of the more inventive Pre mods I've seen so far. iSmashPhone.com has posted a article detailing a creative car and Palm Touchstone integration idea.

The user has basically wired the Touchstone Kit into his BMW's center console area. Thanks to the strong magnetic clasp of the dock, the Pre stays in place and charges at the same time with a simple placement on the armrest. It also doubles as a great mount for viewing maps and GPS directions. Cool stuff.

LOL I have this vision of me hearing my phone ring, grabbing my cup of coffee and pouring it in my ear. Sometimes things can be too efficient.

In short, I had always believed that the world involved magic: now I thought that perhaps it involved a magician.
