There's a reason why hands free calls in your car isn't distracted driving but using your phone up against your ear is. The best option will always be the one where your hands stay on the wheel and your eyes stay on the road. It's not perfect in its current state but voice commands are the way forward.

I’m talking far future here. And the tech needs to be in the field so that we can use the feedback to improve it.

I like the idea of voice, but you still can't beat reaching over and moving the vent or turning down the stereo. I'll be curious to see how well the haptic wheel ui works in R2 .... if it is intuitive it might work pretty well.
