Telstra has revealed the addition of almost one million new mobile services in the six months to December 2011, but Sensis revenues plummeted 24 percent in 12 months.
Other technical innovations coming from Chrysler next

consoles and portable media players. There's also the SIRIUS Backseat
TV with live programming delivered directly to the vehicle. An enhanced
voice-activated Bluetooth hands-free can command and control navigation
systems, satellite radio and voice mail. The new audio systems will
feature full iPod integration.
Even behind the scenes IT is never far away.
Chrysler's product development team has created a Knowledge Based
Engineering system. This combines proprietary software with engineering
data and knowledge, and speeds up overall vehicle development time. In

just 21 months, chopping several months off the normal time scale.
Frank Klegon, the Executive Vice President of Product Development at
Chrysler says "In today's market, Chrysler's mission is to bring
innovation to market more quickly, ultimately resulting in more
customer satisfaction and convenience."
The only thing that remains to be confirmed is the cost of UConnect

wireless laptop cards" and that there will be no tie in to long
contracts.
