They are full on nuts if they really plan to get in the auto business. Still not sure I believe it - maybe it’s just some user interface for the car (which would be cool - tons of opportunity there).

I remember in the '70s, giving my boss at GM a purchase request for an Apple computer. His reply: "GM purchasing would never offer a PO to a company named (say with disgust) 'Apple'." Here's how that worked out for him - Market cap Old GM: $0 AAPL: $half trillion.

That said, a car must not only get you where you want to go, it must also warm and cool you, light your way, do it safely, and entertain you while it's doing it. Current battery technology can't even do this all for two hours while sitting in your driveway, much less get you where you want to go, and back. All the elves in silicone valley can't change that unless they also invent new batteries along the way.
