Linus Tech tips coverage of ctia 2014 is brought to you by

2
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:10,880
AT&T all right guys welcome to the AT&T Booth where we're specifically checking

3
00:00:08,040 --> 00:00:15,000
out AT&T Drive AT&T Drive is delivering connectivity to different cars around

4
00:00:12,599 --> 00:00:20,640
the world including stuff like the Tesla Model S GM terrain Volvo XC60 and Audi

5
00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:26,480
A3 some of these cars are either powered by 3G or LTE and that's mostly what AT&T

6
00:00:24,519 --> 00:00:29,800
is delivering to these devices AT&T has specifically said to me at the show

7
00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:34,000
floor today that they're they're trying to make get a car purchasing decision or

8
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:38,760
a car manufacturer purchasing decision not a carrier decision when buying a car

9
00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:43,000
which is quite admirable but if you do want more AT&T drive connected apps the

10
00:00:41,399 --> 00:00:45,719
car manufacturers are able to take advantage of some of those hopefully in

11
00:00:44,559 --> 00:00:50,480
the future to talk about the different apps that they're hopefully going to be able to partner with I have a

12
00:00:48,399 --> 00:00:54,039
conversation with AT&T's senior vice president of emerging devices division

13
00:00:52,359 --> 00:00:58,199
Chris Penrose so what kind of apps and services are you guys partnering with to bring to these vehicles we're really

14
00:00:56,879 --> 00:01:02,719
excited on Friday we made a big announcement of six major app partners

15
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:06,119
that have come to develop on AT&T's Drive platform and really covering a

16
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:10,520
full range of services that people are going to want to use in their car so

17
00:01:07,759 --> 00:01:14,840
first think about uh INF infotainment and media type of applications we've got

18
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:18,320
iHeart Radio uh obviously being able to stream internet radio we've got Stitcher

19
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:22,640
being able to listen out to certain podcasts and then newsbeat a really

20
00:01:20,159 --> 00:01:25,360
exciting one hour or one minute uh consumption of different news articles

21
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:30,720
you wanted to be able to hear while you're driving so that's great uh also some location based Services uh are

22
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:34,600
really big in the car and Glimpse and being able to share your location is one

23
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:37,680
of those great applications out there uh we also brought weather in the car and

24
00:01:36,159 --> 00:01:42,920
weather is believe it or not a very important thing that people want to know

25
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:44,399
uh and uh and finally um we also brought

26
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:48,000
parking because parking is something that we all do and Parker is a great app

27
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:51,320
that we've brought in the car as well so ACU weather does the weather Parker does

28
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:54,240
the parking app and we're very excited to have these first six Partners on we

29
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:57,280
have many many more they building out for the for the platform we'll be

30
00:01:56,079 --> 00:02:01,960
announcing in the coming months by utilizing these apps and general connectivity you can do quite a few

31
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:05,600
different things especially when using them in sync but first off I want to

32
00:02:03,799 --> 00:02:09,640
talk about twinning twinning is pretty interesting if you happen to say leave

33
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:13,520
home without your phone your car could essentially kind of turn into your phone

34
00:02:11,879 --> 00:02:16,519
if you have your profile properly set up and you leave home your your car can

35
00:02:15,319 --> 00:02:21,000
mimic all the things that your phone can already do it'll have its address books it can call out to people it can receive

36
00:02:19,519 --> 00:02:24,440
text messages you can do all those kind of things and it will do those things as

37
00:02:22,640 --> 00:02:27,239
your phone so if you called someone it's not going to come from some foreign

38
00:02:25,879 --> 00:02:31,319
number and it's not going to not show up in their call display as you it will

39
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:35,319
still appear directly as you all the time so it should be quite seamless all

40
00:02:33,519 --> 00:02:39,080
