UC Berkeley and CSU Fremont did a joint study showing that HOV lanes do not increase carpooling or decrease traffic and in fact cause more accidents. HOVs are an interesting idea, but they in fact do not work within a 100 mile radius of the San Francisco Bay Area. I doubt they work elsewhere, either. Gas prices, insurance, etc. should cause people to carpool. HOVs punish those who are poor, cannot carpool due to situation and those who do not need/want the newest car with a HOV sticker.
CNG is most often a storage medium, not enough of it is found naturally. It is usually extracted using fossil fuels. It is similar to electric cars. You are just externalizing the problem and emissions do occur, just not at the tailpipe.

I agree that flex fuel is just marketing hype. Ethanol is not the solution for most places, especially when it comes from corn, which may not have a net positive impact on power or emissions. We are most likely externalizing pollution at the farm and transportation level.
@NocKnock: You can watch DVDs on a BluRay player. Therefore, no one has to replace their current collection. You can hold out as long as you want or only buy movies you do not have in BluRay.

Im gonna use this as a gophone with a data plan and jailbreak it to use skype. Gimme Gimme.
I expected him to make fun of how the old model needed a brace nullifying most of its boot capacity. One simple 10 second point. I wasn't looking for an expose on it.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I am trying to configure out a really dumbed down and intuitive PC for my grandmother. She recently had a stroke and while she is under my care I would like to repurpose a laptop for her to surf and email her children. Anyone have any experience with what input devices and UI's are really understandable for the over 80 crowd?"
