Sync can add functionality to the car by giving you voice control over many functions that would otherwise be much more difficult ... full control over your phone through the sound system is the big one for us, then there's voice control of the sound system and in some cases the climate control system and the navigation system.

If you have an ipod or other portable digital device for music, that too can be connected to the car and controlled by voice through the sync system.

Additionally, I think the latest versions of sync may offer wireless connectivity for your iphone or laptop and can let you receive and manage emails etc by voice ... ie: it reads your emails to you and allows you to respond verbally.

My version of sync doesn't have the last bit, so I may have got some of that wrong ... in any event, think of it as a voice-controlled remote for many of the cars systems as well as the things that can connect to it.
