That may sound ridiculous but it's a car, it's meant to be driven not used for messaging and iPhone apps. Although that's just the old timer in me speaking!
I agree that the industry is going with bigger and better screens, but I'd be surprised if the G30 screen is much larger because the F10 screen is pretty damn big.
It's the same size, but sits closer to the driver.
