re: I have yet to see an application that convinces me that wireless web is better.

What year will this be available (at a price that people who drive Subarus will pay); That's the year, IMO, that wireless data/internet get mass-adopted:

I'm driving through Montana on a family vacation. A Country radio station is on, volume turned up to drown out the sound of the 6 and 8-old fighting over Legos in the back seat. I ask "where is the nearest pizza place?" The car answers, "12 miles up the road, in Livingston". The 10-year-old says, "I want pineapple and bacon pizza". The car says, "You'll have to go to Billings for that, and it'll cost you 7$ more. Want directions?"
