Electric car division, how about that, I was not aware that Apple had such a division.
Wonder how long it will take for iCar to be released.

He will be working in Apple's Electric car division.


That's pretty awesome. Apple needs to diversify it's revenue sources by (re)creating new product categories. Cars, car systems, drones and robots are probably all brewing at Cupertino.

I really liked QNX back in the day, seemed like Amiga might make it back in the main stream when the partnership was announced. Too bad it was over before it began.

Well, Apple's CarPlay is QNX in its core, so no big surprise.
