Regarding Hybrid Cars - Check out the gas savings calculator at http://www.mixedpower.com/ to see how much you can save with a hybrid vehicle. Most people are prety surprised at how quickly you recoup the "extra" cost, especially with rising gas prices.
If you are interested in Hybrid vehicles there is a lot more information there as well. The forums havea lot of good information and theres even a free buy and sell for hybrid stuff.
the site http://mixedpower.com/ has a gas savings calculator for Hybrid vehicles. Plans are to convert it into Euro as well.
http://mixedpower.com/ uses a slashdot type interface to offer much more than just hybrid gas mileage.

First - while watching regular TV hit" SELECT-PLAY-SELECT-3-0-Select This turns on the 30 second skip feature. You'll have to do it again if you lose power to the box. Now the icon that looks like this ->| is a 30 second skip.
Secondly, who watches TV in realtime on a Tivo? You almost always watch something that is already saved, or if your watching CNN in the morning you let it start while you go brush your teeth, coem back and rewind a few minutes then skip the annoying Geico and DiTech commercials.
I travel alot and just bought the av480 for $650 at Compuplus.com - I now have my entire MP3 collection (30 Gig) All my photos (20 Gig) with 3 gig left over for recording TV and copying pron. Add the FM receiver and you can now "Tivo" FM radio (30 second buffer) as well as record what you're listening too.
They seem to update the OS on a regular basis, my only compliant at this point is that the Direct TV receiver model D-10 is not in the av480 list but I spoke to Archos yesterday.
To set up the Tivo-like features - I have to go to Yahoo TV and save my weekly schedule to my harddrive - transfer it to the archos whre it is auto recognized! Not too bad.

I never use the FFWD button - 30 second skip!
The site http://www.mixedpower.com/ also has a similar story at http://www.mixedpower.com/modules.php?name=News&fi le=article&sid=279&mode=thread&order=1&thold=0 as well as additional information on hybrid vehicles.
It s worth looking around and checking out the forums as well.
