Clarion has something pretty cool in the works. If you're an Android fanatic and can't get enough of it with just your smartphone and tablet, you can now get it on your car radio. Clarion has the dubbed the Mirage a "smart car stereo" and it comes with a 6.5-inch touch screen. Ironically, it also comes with Facebook and Angry Birds already installed.

Just what we need--to be encouraging Facebook and AB while driving. Ultimately, the Mirage is an AVN-style double-DIN player with an SD slot, USB port, and Bluetooth. Curiously, they seem to have forgotten a CD drive. Even though this stereo runs Android, it should be able to accept plugging your iPhone or iPod into it via USB to play music.

It also has built-in GPS, radio, and the awesome ability to display photos as a slideshow. Once again, why they have a distracting feature like that is beyond me. As for right now, this product is being marketed directly to manufacturers, so you can't pick it up for personal use quite yet. Hopefully, we will soon see something like this as a default in-dash system.
