Lexus 2010 RX : Heads Up Display (HUD)

Well it's finally here: Jet Fighter cockpit technology in a car - a Heads Up Display (HUD)
It was only a matter of time, and of course in a high-end car.

I saw a TV commercial for a 2010 Lexus RX HUD which described the
ability of the driver to not have to take his or her eyes off the road.
The commercial didn't do a good job of showing what a HUD was though.

Here's a link to some video online showing the car speed on display in the windshield.

It's supposed to be safer, but it seems distracting to me.
I guess you get used to it (I hope).
