I'm not surprised it is helping to sell cars. I'm sure it is good for Ford. But, since Ford is, I believe, #3 in world-wide sales, I wonder if GM (#1) or Toyota (#2) will pick up Sync for their cars. According to the <a HREF="http://www.syncmyride.com/" rel="nofollow">SyncMyRide</a> site, Microsoft Sync is much simpler than the older Windows CE Automotive. It looks like all it does is voice command and charge devices. Its slogan is: <i>You talk, Sync listens</i>. On the other hand, it works with a lot of devices including the Apple iPod.

I've been wondering whether Sync is reach not much more than Voice Command? I know people who work at Ford that tell me they are selling cars just because of Sync.
