"The
trend towards consumer electronics device integration into the automobile
will continue to accelerate. The relationship between these two disparate industries
will be strengthened through innovative and collaborative exchanges
as exemplified by this conference."

"Market coexistence
of OEMs in-dash navigation systems and Portable Navigation Devices
(PND) is taking place. For vehicles that are not perceived in the
market place as luxury ones, a tighter relation between OEM and PND
manufactures could result in navigation device that is not only reasonably
priced for end customers but also nicely and seamlessly integrated
in these vehicles.
