Oh... that's disappointing. I know it is just a job but the original 'I'm a Mac' series brilliant and ground breaking advertising. This is just a flat and tired re-hash. Will the target audience really remember the originals?, and if not - will it work? And Justin is looking old. Nothing wrong with that, we all age, but its just kinda sad. I guess it is a sign of the times - the Mac guy is just like every other guy. Mac is great and all that, but times have changed and Mac now is 'the man'. 

Anyone remember the MS IE debacle? Who'd a thunk we'd be at a point where the dominant browser to the point that it warrants scrutiny is an Apple browser?

I hope that solution also includes a provision for hard wired connected car players. 

To be honest you can buy pretty cheap connected bluetooth receivers so no need for a wire to actual phone.

Maybe for cars from the 90s.  Most new cars have the stereo system so completely integrated into the vehicle that you cannot replace them.  So no, your solution does not work with 99% of the cars on the road today that offer CarPlay.  And Bluetooth is awful for listening to music.  The digital connection with USB is far superior for audio quality, and CarPlay functionality.

Cars much later than the 90's have an aux in. In fact I have never seen a car without. You can get a quality Bluetooth dongle for that, or even a wifi dongle. Not CarPlay, but with your phone in a mount it works well. I have had that setup in my last two cars, both in the 2000's.

And apple-flavored yogurt at that. Ew. 

Totally gross. 

Oh man, I can feel the disappointment in my gut!
