This innovative product, while still only in the conceptual phase, will allow customers to surf the Internet, download applications to personalize their Volvo to their lifestyle while enjoying video and unlimited music download using a digital touch screen. The RSEi-500TM will also allow customers to connect their vehicle to their home computer thus allowing video, audio and other home data content to be easily transferred to the vehicle's on board computer. Volvo Cars of North America has partnered with Azentek Corporation and Gracenote(R) to explore the possibility of bringing this revolutionary product to the market. The Chicago Auto Show demonstration will optimize this leading edge new technology by leveraging the turbocharged speeds of Sprint 4G via its new OverdriveTM 3G/4G Mobile Hotspot.* " has="" set="" rear="" fully="" integrated="" multimedia="" rse="" customers="" surf="" enjoy="" mobile="" tv="" watch="" while="" boasting="" industry="" interactive="" audio="" enabled="" all="" from="" back="" seat="" jack="" product="" manager="" vcna.="" these="" technological="" properties="" know="" appeal="" discerning="" electronics="" buyers="" owners="" vehicles.="" teaming="" provides="" most="" experience="" industry.="" taking="" advantage="" broadband="" connection="" comprehensive="" server="" passengers="" first="" time="" be="" able="" their="" collections="" by="" biographies="" reviews="" playing.="" powering="" which="" allows="" much="" they="" desire="" part="" bundled="" solution.="" identify="" retrieve="" information="" am="" fm="" satellite="" radio="" then="" directly="" system.="" users="" can="" also="" display="" explore="" additional="" content="" have="" celebrity="" artist="" voice="" choice="" interact="" during="" experience.="" we="" are="" pleased="" enable="" latest="" gracenote="" technologies="" well="" as="" online="" media="" gracenote-powered="" services="" next="" generation="" systems.="" this="" implementation="" sets="" entirely="" new="" standard="" an="" in-vehicle="" entertainment="" system="" what="" is="" possible="" said="" bill="" head="" automotive="" americas="" gracenote.="" feature="" highlights="" internet="" associate="" navigate="" user="" library="" lyrics="" north="" america="" mood="" attributes="" unlimited="" service="" video="" exploration="" recognize="" currently="" playing="" broadcast="" music="" download="" those="" tracks="" dvd="" playback="" with="" cover="" synopses="" cast="" details="" usb="" interface="" email="" access="" aux="" av="" input="" external="" like="" zune="" gaming="" ect.="" wifi="" capability="" for="" connectivity="" various="" other="" data="" storage="" devices="" home="" hard="" drive="" touch="" screen="" based="" on="" customer="" feedback="" at="" chicago="" auto="" may="" one="" day="" find="" its="" way="" into="" number="" of="" volvo="" models.="" vcna="" will="" continue="" study="" rsei-500="" s="" viability="" and="" hopes="" to="" announce="" a="" firm="" launch="" date="" in="" the="" future.=""><img vspace="4" hspace="0" border="1" src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2010/02/xc70rearinter.jpg" alt="" /></a><br />
<br />
In-car entertainment turned it up another wireless notch at last week's <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/category/chicago-auto-show/">Chicago Auto Show</a> when <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/make/volvo/">Volvo</a> showed off "the industry's first Internet connected Rear Seat Entertainment System with Windows XP, WiFi and a 500G hard drive." <br />
<br />
Officially, it remains a test-bed study for the moment, but the idea is that you can do everything on a rear headrest touchscreen that you can do on your home computer. You can also plug your computer into the car and load the XC70's system with your own music and video to keep things quiet in the back row. While it's officially only in the 'conceptual phase,' we have it on very good authority that the system will be available in 2011 Volvo <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/model/xc60">XC60</a> and <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/model/xc70">XC70</a> models beginning this summer. <br />
<br />
Follow the jump for Volvo's take on the RSEi-500 setup, and be sure to get ready for <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/category/geneva-motor-show/">Geneva</a>, where Volvo will reveal an XC90 with a crappy rolling chair, a cubicle and a water cooler. <br />

<br />
Without doubt we have never come across a more comically true summary of the auto show experience. A nine-panel series on the experience of the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/category/chicago-auto-show/">Chicago Auto Show</a> by the magnificently named Lunchbreath is so spot on that it's already giving us PTSD about the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/category/geneva-motor-show/">Geneva Motor Show</a>, and Geneva hasn't even happened yet. From the camera phones to photo profiling to <em>that</em> guy in the Escalade, it's all in there. If you like the panels below, check out his <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/lunchbreath/sets/72157620710674455/">Unsolicited Proposals to Detroit</a>, and the <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/lunchbreath/sets/72157615906496718/">Housewares Trade Show</a> for something completely different.<br />
