Pioneer has launched a new car stereo, but unlike your typical car stereo, this one is alot more sophisticated and versatile � it should prove to be a bit hit.

This new Pioneer car stereo is called AppRadio, and the thing that's so special about it is that you can use iPhone and iPod Touch apps on it, in your car. Pioneer AppRadio is simply a multi-touch display that is fully integrated in your car, and all that you have to do in order to use it is to connect it to your iPhone 4 via Apple's standard 30-pin connector. So far, only several apps support Pioneer AppRadio, and the list includes Google Maps, INRIX, MotionX-GPS Drive, Rdio, and Pandora Radio.

As for technical specs, Pioneer AppRadio comes with a 6.1? 800�640 multi-touch display, and it supports Bluetooth Hands-Free calling, AM/FM Radio and it fully supports iPhone 4 and iPod Touch fourth gen .

As for the pricing, we're assuming that Pioneer AppRadio will cost less than $500 when it hits stores.
