| I couldn't figure out what the beeping was ..... Joanne in OC - Wednesday, 28 August, 2013, at 12:59:55 am |
After 1 week I finally realized my car knows when I get an email and notifies me!!!! That beeping was driving me crazy. Funny, now that I know what it is, it doesn't bother me anymore. I just kinda smile and laugh. ...... There's even an icon and it differentiates between my different emails. 
Will the car now read them and answer for me??? Maybe I should read the manual and find out.
I'm not really understanding the purpose of this since I'm driving and can't read or answer them. It's just so crazy, each day I learn something new
I'm having fun

It frankly would annoy me. I find driving the Boxster is a refuge from e-mails and all the other stuff. I have (grudgingly) put in a Bluetooth device in my 986, to avoid getting a huge fine for driving with a non-handsfree device, but I sometimes long for the days with no mobiles phones and e-mail tailing me at every turn.

I'm with you. Nice thing with the Bluetooth in the 981 (assume 991 is the same) is it shows you who's calling, unless it's an emergency, the call can fall on deaf ears.
I'd rather really enjoy doing one thing at a time, rather than doing bits and pieces of a bunch of things and not having time to really appreciate any of them.

I have the same in my Audi -- but frankly, if a call comes in, I see it, I take it. The thrills of work and the fact that phone calls are usually more urgent than e-mails.
Fortunately, with e-mail, I get very few phone calls, and my e-mails aren't routed to my car. They sit on my phone, where I ignore them until I want to see them -- or until I get a phone call, with "did you see my e-mail?!?"
