Parrot Asteroid – Apps, Web, Phone, and Music in Your Car


Install the Parrot Asteroid receiver in your car, and you'll be connected to the internet, GPS, telephone, radio, and your mobile device.   Main functions are accessible using the jog wheel, but you can also control the unit with voice commands.  The Asteroid comes with a GPS dongle, so you can navigate without requiring a separate GPS device.  If you supply your own 3G service, you'll be able to access the internet via Android apps.  The unit can connect to your Bluetooth-enabled phone to make calls, and you can connect MP3 players directly to the unit and control playback with voice commands.
