Hot Wheels upcoming remote controlled vehicles, the Nitro Speeders (which were shown off at the New York Toy Fair quite a while ago) are about to go on sale in a few months time. The tiny cars can go up to 8.3mph, which is said to be equivalent to 600 mph in the car’s 1/87<span class="Apple-style-span" mce_name="sup" mce_style="vertical-align: super;" style="color: #444444; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; line-height: 1.5; vertical-align: super;">th</span> scale. Due to the cars’ fast speeds, users are going to have trouble maneuvering them in tiny places, but this means that the toys will be able to handle a vertical loop track with ease.</div>

BMW has released two apps for iOS this week. The first one, based on the Mini brand, is called <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/mini-connected/id376699654?mt=8">Mini Connected</a>, and it allows you to not only track information about your car, but also access web radio and audio versions of internet feeds, hooked up directly to your car's stereo. And on cars equipped with navigation features, you can even send directions and searches back and forth from your iPhone to the car's systems, and vice-versa.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/bmw-connected/id406975118?mt=8">The BMW Connected app</a> does the same thing, only across the manufacturer's vehicle lineup. Interesting, not only that these apps exist (there are already a few solutions for doing all of these things out there), but that they're created and "sold" (both are free) by the car's manufacturers themselves. In essence, an Apple app is being used to market the functionality of these automobiles.<br />
