UMTS!!!!]]>May 25th 2010 3:10AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/25/2011-audi-a8-gets-factory-installed-wireless-hotspot-option/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/25/2011-audi-a8-gets-factory-installed-wireless-hotspot-option/
While driving. Is there ANY protection to keep the driver from using this? Like, say, if there's only one person seated in the car, disable the WLAN?]]>May 25th 2010 3:26AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/25/2011-audi-a8-gets-factory-installed-wireless-hotspot-option/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/25/2011-audi-a8-gets-factory-installed-wireless-hotspot-option/
Why does it need protection? There's already plenty of choice for the driver wishing to take their attention off the road. Man has had eye lids since the Benz Velo, and nobody protected us from those.

What health and safety, lawsuit orientated world we have. What happened to common sense?]]>May 25th 2010 4:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/25/2011-audi-a8-gets-factory-installed-wireless-hotspot-option/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/25/2011-audi-a8-gets-factory-installed-wireless-hotspot-option/
Food
Cupholders
Radios/iPods/CDs/GPS
Electric Shavers
Children
Video
Makeup
Cigarettes
(I could go on).

Alternatively, we could just isolate the driver in a soundproof chamber that prevented visual contact with the rest of the interior. I guess we'd need some video feed replacement for the rear-view and right door mirrors...
