==Analogy== | |||
If '''driving a car''' were like '''making a call''' | |||
*Owning a car were like having a home telephone | |||
*Taking a taxi or renting a car were like using a phone booth or hotel telephone | |||
*A car benefit were like an office telephone | |||
'''[[Bluetooth]] cars''' would be like invention of the '''mobile telephone''' making everyone forget how we managed things before this | |||
==Imagine carsharing like never before== | |||
Imagine semi-decentralised carpooling and carsharing like never before possible... unlimited numbers of use-and-dispose car keys, timelimited keys. | Imagine semi-decentralised carpooling and carsharing like never before possible... unlimited numbers of use-and-dispose car keys, timelimited keys. | ||

* You can make money off your investment by microrenting your vehicle (when you don't need it) to carpools or car rentals or even individuals directly, when you will be compensated for gas, and the normal wear-tear caused by the vehicle being used and insurance systems cover you for accidents + you get a premium, so you can make your car an financial investement (rent it often enough and you get paid more then you paid for the car originally) | * You can make money off your investment by microrenting your vehicle (when you don't need it) to carpools or car rentals or even individuals directly, when you will be compensated for gas, and the normal wear-tear caused by the vehicle being used and insurance systems cover you for accidents + you get a premium, so you can make your car an financial investement (rent it often enough and you get paid more then you paid for the car originally) | ||

*Enhanced locking security due to getting a fresh "use and dispose"-key every time from the ignition lock. No more radio spoofers. The ignition lock also charges your key if necessary. | *Enhanced locking security due to getting a fresh "use and dispose"-key every time from the ignition lock. No more radio spoofers.

*[[bluetooth|Future bluetooth]] is rumored to offer narrowcasting which would allow much faster click-wait-open response times combined with use-and-dispose keys that can be transmitted unencrypted, which is nice when you have escape some assailants to the security of your bulletproof vehicle. | *[[bluetooth|Future bluetooth]] is rumored to offer narrowcasting which would allow much faster click-wait-open response times combined with use-and-dispose keys that can be transmitted unencrypted, which is nice when you have escape some assailants to the security of your bulletproof vehicle. | ||

*Tell your son that if he goes over 5000rpm or 140kmh or drives to curves in such a speed that the side-ways traction goes over a certain force or presses the gas pedal fully down without a good reason to do so there is good chances that daddys master key will make the validity of the offsprings keys to vanish faster then you can say "[[bluetooth]]" | *Tell your son that if he goes over 5000rpm or 140kmh or drives to curves in such a speed that the side-ways traction goes over a certain force or presses the gas pedal fully down without a good reason to do so there is good chances that daddys master key will make the validity of the offsprings keys to vanish faster then you can say "[[bluetooth]]" | ||

Dissin: | |||
If the car makers aren't competing to get the [[Bluetooth]] locking system fitted first then they either: | |||
A) Are morons<br> | |||
B) Are morons and think that explosion of carpooling would lead to poor economic performance for the factory and lowered stock value<br> | |||
C) Are morons and think that a slogan like "We Built The First Bluetooth Car" and their stock value in the year 2103 have no relationship to each other :( <br> | |||
D) Are morons and can't see the advantages in having smaller amount of cars used up more quickly allowing for new more ecological models to enter the market more quickly. | |||
...ok. done dissin the rich folks. | |||
