After a lot of anticipation and speculations, Pioneer Electronics have made their "big announcement" at the Connected Car Conference (C3) in New York. As most people hoped, it isn't the CarPlay firmware update. It is in fact, AppRadioLIVE.
Here is the announcement made through Facebook...
"At #CEWeek Pioneer announces AppRadioLIVE App for all AppRadio Mode users. One single, simple to use, interactive interface. Check out pioneerappradiolive.com for more details."
- Pioneer Electronics USA (Facebook)
We had already reported about AppRadioLIVE earlier today. This announcement is quite a dampener for users that were hoping for CarPlay to finally make its way out on NEX units. The wait continues...

No chance for Android users to get a hold of the new AppRadioLive I'm sure. I'm sure Ill be selling my AppRadio before I go buy an IPhone.
ReplyDeleteI think this is the bone they're throwing to all the people who don't have a NEX model and won't be able to use CarPlay. Still seems like a pale imitation, though. Let's just get that update out there!
