Over at Mobitopia, Frank Koehntopp tosses out an interesting idea: that we replace our car stereos with cellphones. Lots of cars already have Bluetooth for making hands-free phone calls, so it’s not such a great conceptual leap to use that same cellphone’s built-in FM tuner, MP3 player, and Internet connection to listen to music or stream it off of the Internet. Our only concern is whether a cellphone doubling as a car stereo would be able to survive the rigors of a bass-off, that rareified form of suburban combat where people with massively tricked out car stereo systems compete to see whose speakers will blow out first.
