Given that there're headunits that run on Android (lots of apps e.g. Torque shown above) and have WIFI integrated (you can download apps from the cloud), wouldn't the driver now have all the info that OBC provides plus a host more and advanced, therefore rendering loss of OBC functionality a moot point of worry? I mean, you would be getting the "lost" OBC functionality from elsewhere and with more details and nicer visuals and output, right?
