Part of it may be arrogance and trying to support the business model of OnStar, but the other part is not being able to justify engineering and development costs to offer it in the U.S. when it would sell at such low penetration percentages on an already low volume car. This is no excuse, but explains why things are the way they are. By commonizing the Black Tie radio into Saabs, expect to see all the tech features in the next few years as it's easy to justify offering high tech features over hundreds of thousands of vehicles. It's a matter of integration and development expense.
