Entune update added Slacker Radio to 2012 Prius v Five/ATP !

I was very surprised - no, stunned - when an Entune update added a Slacker Radio app to our 2012 Prius v Five/ATP this evening. I had given up on Toyota's stated commitment to add apps when Entune was originally introduced.

The update took about five minutes. I assume that it was done through my Android phone connected to our home wireless network.

I already had a Slacker account so it took only a few seconds to link it on the Entune website. I had to restart Entune on my Android phone before Slacker would work on the Prius head unit. The Entune Slacker interface seems good but it will take me a while to evaluate it since I don't usually drive the Prius. My Slacker channels and song history now show on the Entune screen.

Anyway ... I am very surprised that Toyota finally came through on its promise to add apps to the original Entune. Who knows .. maybe we will get Yelp and Facebook next?
