Buried deep down in the press release issued by BMW yesterday, an interesting piece of information around Apple’s iPad can be found. At the 2010 Paris Motor Show, BMW will showcase a new range of Original BMW Accessories that have been specifically developed for smartphones, laptops and the iPad. All these devices offer additional convenience, extended functionality and a higher level of integration for safe in-car use of mobile devices.
One of this new accessories is a BMW holder for the Apple iPad which makes its debut in the new BMW X3 and will be available for all other model series from spring 2011. The iPad cradle allows for horizontal and vertical viewing, based on passengers’ preferences and functions performed. The horizontal mode caters to viewing photos or videos, while the portrait mode is more suitable for office applications.
Furthermore, the iPad available for rear-seat passengers can be connected to an ad-hoc WiFi hotspot. The connection to the internet is established using an internet-compatible mobile phone or data-enabled SIM card.
