    Heh. I'm picturing the western world reduced down to pre-industrial levels due to patent fights and then aliens show up and the best we have to throw at them is a seed drill.

    My 33 MHz Quadra 650 is still running. I keep it around as it runs an Agfa tabloid printer. And some cool Bungie games.

    Nope, I'd like for auto manufacturers to have an option for an amp with USB input, and a variety of mount options that aren't tied to iPhones/pods/extremities, without all the crappy laid out integrated dash crap. Sure, I upgrade all my cars as I get them but I'm getting tired of having to do this.

    Ok, even better; a full on car android (or iOS) system that will join home networks and sync/update but! Is also accessible for owner hardware update. If Sparkly Unicorn version won't run on current system, let me upgrade it myself. Maybe include a console display (not a fan of touchscreen in vehicles) but allow remote access/control from other android devices.

    I've had a 16 gb iPod nano sitting behind my trucks glovebox for last 2 years. Haven't had any trouble from -20 F up through 90 F temps. It was the largest solid state ipod drive I could find outside of an expensive iPod touch. Solid state storage ROCKS!

    A decent amplifier with powered USB fed DAC and a way to provide various horizontal docks for a variety of handheld devices would be cool. I don't really need much beyond that. A tablet with 64 gb or 128 gb solid state storage makes for a decent mobile AV system.

    Yup, here in New Mexico, just about any of the old family names are relatives, to one degree or another. Is one of th reasons my Mom and several of her sisters went out of state to find husbands. Our family photos now have us ranging from pale redheads through blond blue eys to dark brown with black hair. Kinda cool having a rainbow family. Doesn't make sense to look down on anyone due to how they look. Now, if they don't like chile...
