On January 16, 2012, In Gadgets, by AshleyOrr

Garmin has a new head unit (internally dubbed Everest) that’s due to arrive in a few OEM vehicles later this year, and aside from an attractive interface, a revamped navigation system and one-shot voice commands, a new audio app from Gracenote could be included in the package. The app is called MoodGrid and it’s a scaled down version of the Android-based version that Gracenote has been testing for the last year. Like the tablet app, the automotive-spec MoodGrid has a graph with Positive, Calm, Energetic and Dark on each axis

On June 3, 2011, In Gadgets, by klubetor
