You no longer need to duct-tape your iPad to your car

September 24, 2012 · by Espen André Øverdahl

Good news, everybody! You no longer need to duct-tape your iPad to the dashboard to access the Internet. Today we released the Pioneer CarBrowser App powered by Opera Mini, available on the iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S and compatible with Pioneer’s AppRadio and AppRadio Mode featured in-car stereo systems. Combined with numerous Pioneer receiver models, the Pioneer CarBrowser provides complete in-vehicle access to the Internet.

You can check restaurant reviews, compare prices at the mall, or reseach weather forecasts for future road-trips – all before leaving the driveway or parking lot. With the Pioneer CarBrowser, Internet contents are easily viewable on Pioneer’s large 6.1- or 7-inch touchscreen displays, and optimized for the in-car environment.

Does anyone of you have a Pioneer receiver model? It would be interesting to hear if anyone of you has tried out Opera in your car.

The Pioneer CarBrowser is available in the iTunes App Store. For more information, visit www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Car/AppRadio.
