My colleague Mark Rigley must feel (justifiably) proud these days. He is, after all, head of the team that created the new QNX concept car, which took home a Best of Show award from 2012 CES.
You'd think that Mark and I would be anxious to get home after a hectic, albeit gratifying week at CES. And indeed, we were. But we made a slight detour and stopped over in Dallas to show off the car to our friends at Texas Instruments.
Everyone loved it. The car, based on a Porsche 911, takes advantage of TI's OMAP4 and wireless connectivity solutions, so folks were naturally excited to see what their technology had helped enable.
Better yet, TI brought in a pro photographer to take these cool pix...
Upwards of 400 folks came out to see the car

This shot is just cool.
And speaking of cool, a huge shoutout to the TI OMAP and
wireless solutions teams for all their great support!
