Its only on the 3GS

What the iPhone needs before we start this is a real VOICE dialer. We need to be able to say Bill Smith Home. or Bill Smith Office and have the phone dial.

Many phones have this ability...but not the iphone. YET anyway.

Then the Ford SYNC thing will work much better. Unless the Ford software can download your phone book contacts directly to the Ford system. And Apple could fix this. And NO, the apps at the itune store do not work the way they need to. You still have to interacxt with the phone in some manner while driving.

No, No, we want the new version of the Focus. This is the old ugly model. The one below is the new Focus 5 door hatch ST model. Been waiting for this to finally get here in the US from their EU stable. Has the new Direct Injection engine and supposed to have a DSG type tranny Im hearing. Maybe a turbo version.

But they are still not economical . When the Prius first came out Toyota was losing around 15,000 per car. Im hearing now they are only losing around 5000 per car now.

Better but still not sustainable. The push for this is to fast and will end up making folks upset since the mileage is not that great on many of these cars and the tech may not last. Try using a battery car when its 20 below and 2 feet of snow with little squeaky thin hard rubber tires blown up to 70 psi.

Aint gonna happen.

The battery issue is one thing in the list of issues for electric driven cars, but the big issue is the MAGNETIC Material needed for these high power Electric Motors. Guess who has the largest supply of these Rare Earth magnetic materials......CHINA.

The Neobynium (sp) and other rare earth are being bought up around the world and will likely end up with China as the new Saudi Arabia of magnet material.

If they decide to become the supplier....or the car builder, then where do you go. Pay higher just as in oil..??

This is quite a well. Drilled in close to 5000 feet of water. Then the drilling starts and end up 35,000 feet deep in the earth. I did a lot of work over the last 30 years out there. The reason they havent been out there before is the usual....technology updated did it. The drilling platforms are held in position with GPS, Very LARGE anchor chains that are spread out miles away. OR it may have been a positional rig platform with propellers and motors on all 4 corners to keep it positioned.

But in any case it a big deal. And if they are drilling that deep they are in some new type of pay zones that are much older. I know they have been drilling in what is called the Sub-Salt in the Gulf. They used to not know or think there was oil below the salt domes or layers. But new 3 and 4d Seismology and computers are now starting to be able to see beneath the salt and they are seeing large oil finds below the salt. Some of these huge salt domes come almost to the surface. On a cross section seis chart they look like an underground atom bomg cloud. Mushroom shapee and they are all pure salt plug.

That is what a lot of your natural gas is stored in down in Louisiana. They pump hot water into these big salt domes and wash out the salt. Then you have a big hole that is impervious to the gas and oil so it makes a big storage bin.

Ask Boeing and the now former CEO of that division. The new Dreamliner is falling apart in little shavings, de-laminations, etc. Now 2 years behind schedule. Sounding iffy every day.

Layering is not working out well.

OK, Im in

Ill have one

Ill have one....thanks
