It's all about podcasts, personalized playlists, massive playlists played on "shuffle" to cretae the perfect personal radio station, etc. At least that's what all the cool cats are doing, daddy-o.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4454946892443304749.post-5302190827444124852007-06-19T14:04:00.000-04:002007-06-19T14:04:00.000-04:00Yes, well, until the AppleWizards release the stil...Yes, well, until the AppleWizards release the still-beta-version ICar (you KNOW they're working on it!!), may I weigh in with unbridled love for my Mini Cooper Convertible? She (her name is Moxie) is sleek and hip, bigger inside than she appears, and fun as all-out-heck to drive. She was also not crazy expensive for her stylishness and gets exceptional gas mileage (40orsoMPG). One of her Cooper brothers and sisters would be an excellent commute stallion for you.<BR/><BR/>And oh, Books-on-CD are definitely a great commute strategy. Good luck with the transition!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4454946892443304749.post-65012506901944944952007-06-19T10:16:00.000-04:002007-06-19T10:16:00.000-04:00I have a 2004 Honda Civic with 40K miles on it and...I have a 2004 Honda Civic with 40K miles on it and (knock on wood) no problems yet. I recommend it.<BR/><BR/>As for how to pass the time: NPR or CDs. Me, I like music so I have dozens and dozens of CDs that I listen to on my (admittedly short) commute. It helps to pass the time and to establish a mood (e.g., play upbeat stuff in the morning to get you going).
