Gracenote CarStars GPS, Phone, and Car Stereo

Gracenote CarStars is an automobile application that comes with a clutch
of features. The standout aspect of Gracenote is its ability to let your
favorite music star recommend tracks based on the songs that you listen
to. This is made possible by using speech generation technology from
Voxonix. So, if you’re into oldies you can have long-gone singers,
maybe Sinatra suggesting some smooth Dean Martin numbers for those long
drives.
CarStars association with Omnifone, which offers a a mobile music
subscription network, has led to the creation of a pay-feature called
MusicStation. This will let you access music from several music labels
as well as indie labels. MusicStation facilitates social networking so
you can share music with your friends. This feature has another novelty
up its sleeve, it can tie up with your car's satellite navigation system
and tell you which band is playing in the vicinity.

CarStars will also feature Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity for
communicating with your mobile phone and MP3 player.

Specific details, release date and pricing for the gadget are not yet
out though it is believed that Gracenote CarStars will be out in 2011 in
a tie-up with a car manufacturer.
