SteveEnergi Posted September 10, 2014 at 11:31 AM Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 at 11:31 AM I heard a rumor that Microsoft was being dropped by Ford. Is there any truth to this? Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blars Posted September 10, 2014 at 03:26 PM Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 at 03:26 PM If you do a google search for "Ford drops Microsoft", it looks to be true (a lot of stuff around the end of February, but not a lot since then). Looks like they're going to Blackberry's (yikes!) platform. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meyersnole Posted September 12, 2014 at 02:45 AM Report Share Posted September 12, 2014 at 02:45 AM I would doubt that any current vehicle with a sync system would be forced to migrate, or even be offered to migrate to the new operating system. I think I remember that Ford wants to move away from all the screen controls and back to buttons and knobs. It is odd that we have not heard much about this since February though, maybe Ford and Microsoft have come to an alternate agreement since the break up. Still wondering what kind of affect Apple play is going to have whenever that gets released broadly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
