New Windows Automotive Release On Tap
Microsoft takes its first steps toward delivering on its 'Connected Car' vision.
Microsoft is preparing to launch the next version of its Windows Automotive platform on March 26.
Microsoft will take the wraps off its new system at the Microsoft Automotive Executive Summit in Dearborn, Mich., company officials say. Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer will likely handle the unveiling honors.
Microsoft is expected to follow up with similar launches in Europe and Asia during the third week in April.
Windows Automotive is not designed to power cars. Instead, it controls less mission-critical functions, like navigation, on-board e-mail, audio/visual entertainment and the like.
