FORD Focus - Will Microsoft technology help the new 2008 Ford Focus Sync or swim?

摘要

SEATTLE, WASHINGTON - WHILE the jury is still out on the styling of the new 2008 Ford Focus - as a fan of the original design, I find the new coupe and sedan a tad plain, especially from the rear - one thing is certain: It's a better car from the inside out. And it's available with Sync, a new Ford system that uses Microsoft software to bring automotive connectivity to a new level by being the first to allow voice-activated, hands-free use of both Bluetooth cellphones and MP3 players such as Apple's iPod or Microsoft's new Zune player.
