"All I freakin' want are some sharks with freakin' laserbeams on their heads! How Hard is that?!?" Sorry, I coudn't resist, it was the first thing that came to mind when I read this.

Kudos to Ford for trying something new, but something tells me that this won't end well. Hopefully they can make the system reliable, cheap, and easy to replace when it does break or require maintenance. I certainly wouldn't buy one until they get the kinks worked out. Hopefully this will be more sucessful than the Pinto Fuel Tank Fiasco and the short-lived digital dashboard craze of the late 1980's.
