Omg, the comments on the rear view screen. SPOT ON. I test drove a car recently with one of them and my first thoughts were: "this is awful. Is there a way to turn this into an actual mirror?" Never found about about the latter. Apart from what they said, it was also a glossy screen so it's very easy to get a reflection and then you have to figure out if you're looking at the reflection or the image.

I dislike single screen interfaces but I was a whole new level of disgusted at this feature. The only I stance I could see it being useful is when you can't see out the back using a mirror, like when you're hauling a bunch of stuff. But for most people that's very few times they drive, if ever.
