Ford Sync Version 3.0 GPS With Bluetooth and MP3 Connectivity

The Ford Sync Version 3.0, essentially a navigation system, is the
latest in line from the Sync series. It comes with vastly expanded
functionalities at the core of which is Bluetooth capability. When
paired with a Bluetooth mobile phone, the Sync 3.0 offers data via the
voice channel on almost everything that a traveler would wish to know -
traffic conditions, weather, and even business search. The information
is made available via the Ford Service Delivery Network.

All Ford models will come equipped with the Sync 3.0 from 2010. Europe
will also see the launch of Sync in 10 languages in 2010. For the first
three years, car owners can avail the service free of cost. Since the
information being offered is present in an external server, new apps can
easily be added and Sync-equipped cars can benefit from them. All you
need to do is to download an update file from SyncMyRide and add it to
the Sync 3.0 device via USB. A drawback of Sync 3.0 is that it does not
offer backward compatibility since the earlier versions of Sync did not
come pre-installed with a GPS chip.


With the latest release of Sync, Ford plans to take in-car connectivity
to a new level - primarily through beamed-in connectivity from a
satellite, brought-in connectivity from a cell phone, and built-in
connectivity such as on the dashboard.
