re: you can practically do that right now.

Requirement: audio-only user interface. While driving the car, I can't look at a screen, or use a keyboard or stylus. I don't want to hit a deer, like I did the last time I was in Montana. And, a device small enough that I'd habitually carry it around (outside the car), won't be big enough to have a usable screen or keyboard. So, IMO, wireless data won't take off, till the interface is audio-only.

And it will only be useful if the data it can access is complete (knows all pizza places), up-to-date, and in depth (knows the menu, prices, etc.)

And it must extract my question, and understand it, in a noisy environment.
