Thumbs up Mobile Home- Drive with Siri

http://www.drivewithsiri.com

So I've been using this device in the GS for awhile as my wife and it really is amazing. For those with an iPhone with Siri this small device links through your bluetooth and you can talk handsfree to Siri through your car all with the touch of one button.

I find SIRI to be a better to use than voice NAV and its easy for example to play my songs, text etc through the "Mobile Home". it is real tiny and in black so it clips perfectly on your visor.



It really keeps me talking to the phone instead of using the phone with my hands which helps with safety and keeping our eyes on the road. Overall highly recommended!

Haha, Siri as my wife

That is really amazing! What microphone is used? Does it work even if your iPhone is located in the trunk? My wife is silent there

If you just press and hold the home button on your phone it all works that way and through the speakers / mic too. This seems to just put the home button in a different place (which is convienient but probably not 80 dollar convienient since I keep my phone in the cupholder anyways)

Maybe I don't fully understand the capability - does it do more?

How is the cupholder connected with your car audio and car microphone?

With Mobile Home you are closer to Siri similar to Raj

Raj meets Siri The Big Bang Theory S5x14 - YouTube
If your iphone is paired to you cars stereo activating Siri as you normally do (holding down the home button on your phone) works through your microphone and speakers already without any add ons.

So essentially this device is just a remote home button for your phone?
