Love Pandora.
This feature would be cool to me if it was entirely contained within the stereo itself. As it sits now, I just run pandora through my Android phone via Bluetooth connection into the car's stock radio.
I really hope at one point they make a double din stereo with this capability as a standalone feature independent of the phone.

Cool news indeed.
I have the Motorola Droid. Had the HTC Eris for 3 weeks and decided to go better. I'm taking the car in because the BT no longer connects to either Droid. I had Verizon turn my old LG VX8300 back on and the car connected to it right away, but not the Droids. So I believe it's a GM thing. It connected to the HTC for the first 3 weeks then just up and stopped doing so.
Also, until or unless there's a software upgrade or an app is made available, you cannot use the voice command in the car to dial on the Droid. I could on the LG. But once connected it'll do everything else. Hope they fix it soon!

A Droid is just a wanna-be iPhone. 
I don't think I could live without my iPhone, and the new one comes out soon!

Don't hate! I luv my Droid. Besides, when I have an alert it says "Droid" just like on TV. It's cool!
I woulda gotten an iPhone, but Verizon doesn't offer them, and Verizon has the best cellular service in this area. Gotta have signal to do what it do!
I can flick my Bic (lighter, that is), look at the stars with Google Sky Map, or scan a barcode and search on the internet simply by scanning the barcode! Lots more things, too, like one of those air horns on a can, tornado sirens, whoopee cushions. You get the picture, eh? When I text all I have to do is touch the microphone icon and speak my message, then it types it for me! Oh, and I'm hooked into my gmail account as well. It's about as fast as my DSL at home!

Your aware that is all stuff the iPhone did a years ago?
It is amazing how far mobile phones have come in the past few years.
Some say it's not an iPhone
And they get all annoyed.
It sure ain't just a Mac clone,
'Cuz it's a freakin' Droid!
It calls, it texts, it downloads
At speeds approaching light.
It does all this and more - loads!
It's really quite a sight.
At work I tune in Slacker.
(That's radio, don't cha know!)
And I don't need a hacker
To get this thing to glow.
Mancala is a neat game,
And Google Goggles see all.
Dr. Seuss' quotes are not lame,
And there's Starbucks at the Mall!
The weather, yes, the moon phase,
A dictionary, too.
A stopwatch, maps, and nav aids,
And a calendar to boot!
So what's your iPhone do that
My Droid can't do as well?
I think this thing is real Phat!
Yeah, that means it is Swell!
