Sorry, to me it just screams "let's plaster an ipad right in the middle of the dash". You get of hint of it in the autoblog photos, but I've got to think glare and eyestrain are going to be big issues when driving in real world scenarios (both night and day).
Lately it seems that only a handful of automakers are successfully integrating technology into the cabin. In my opinion, after looking at the S, Tesla is not one of them.
But what I really want to know is....why aren't they further along in the factory? Aren't they supposed to be starting deliveries in 2012? Where's all the tooling? Wasn't a portion of the 2009 loan ($100M) devoted to plant development?
I wish them (and Fisker) well but I hope this project doesn't go down the road of DMC...or Solyndra.
