MeeGo In-Vehicle Infotainment system prototype gets videoed

Several weeks ago, we reported on the GENIVI Alliance’s decision to use MeeGo as their in-vehicle infotainment (IVI) platform. It seems as though a prototype of a MeeGo IVI system has made its way onto YouTube, and we have to say, it looks… interesting? The MeeGo powered system videoed is basically a fully functioning Linux system with a scrolling touch-interface built on the Xfce4 environment; complete with a shell terminal and file manager. The system is also seen running Mozilla’s Fennec browser, displaying navigation maps, and playing media. It obviously has a long way to go, but it is a step in the right direction! We’ve got the video ready for you after the break.
