General Motors is announcing Monday that it's teaming with AT&T to bring snappy 4G connectivity to most of its vehicles by 2014, allowing for the kinds of in-car technologies that used to be the stuff of dreams.
With 4G, GM says it can bring streaming video to the back seat without the need to lug along DVDs. Cars will have Wi-Fi hot spots that handle multiple devices. And navigation systems will grow more sophisticated and display faster.
"It shows that GM is serious about the connected vehicle," says Thilo Koslowski, a vice president specializing in automotive technology for Gartner. "It's a pretty big commitment."
