where do I find a professional installer? It used to be a layman could install a car stereo. Just bolt the 8-track to the bottom of the dash, run some wires under the rug, hook up to some old stereo speakers, and you were ready for Foghat and Jethro Tull (tip o' the hat to Stan Ridgway - The Roadblock Lyrics). I think those days are over. Like I said I bought my system from Best because it was one well reviewed on Amazon. If anything went wrong I wanted to be able to take it back and not have to argue whether it was the hardware or the installer. Player + install around $200. They put in thousands every year, lots of experience with different models and different dashboards.

Interesting article! But I think it may be wrong, at least for Apple. I betcha Apple's coming out with a "Super iPod" about 4" x 6" that uses WiFi, WiMAX, and phone company network connections. I don't think they'll use cell phone voice. Why should they? The phone will be clumsy to use up by the ear. Why not just go straight to VoIP and use Skype or other VoIP solutions for voice and conferencing? I bet it also will still use virtual keys, but they'll work better because they'll be bigger and easier to hit. Such a device would fit beautifully in my cargo pants pocket (that's all I wear these days). Such a device will just kill all netbooks. A lot of people are focused on the iPhone, but I think the iPod Touch is the bigger success in the end. A system like a Super Touch will be tough on AT&T because I don't think AT&T was sharp enough to lock Apple into non-phone devices. What a cool book reader it would be on top of it all. Wouldn't it be nice if it were topped off with an OLED screen? I like to pretend. :-)
