So, if there is a touch screen in the car (similar to iPhone), how is 'added' sound or haptic feedback experienced?
If I'm wearing gloves, probably not at all. It's winter where I live -- on short trips the car doesn't get warm enough for me to bother taking my gloves off.
I recently purchased a new car cd/radio, or "in-car entertainment system", and the lack of useful audio feedback is truly annoying. I can pick one of a dozen colors to flash in tempo to the music; when I change the volume I get animated soundwaves displayed on the console; but the only audio feedback is the occasional generic beep. Doing anything more than adjusting the volume requires me to move my active focus from driving to looking at a complex UI. I'm not sure that's such a good thing for me to be doing while I drive.
