I must admit that when I had a Ford Focus that did this I did kind of like
it in a geeky kind of way but since moving to a car that doesn't have this
feature I don't miss it. I find it hard to believe that adjusting the
volume is the number one cause of accidents and I would LOVE to see the
figures that back this up, could you provide a link to where you obtained
this information?

I haven't had problems with any of them in years, most are easy to avoid
with a little common sense and a little software. One step closer to that
new laptop eh Dave, just hope it isn't Mac based (or do you need a new door
stop over at Figleaf?) ;-)

I love my iPaq, what with windows media player plugging into my car stereo
with a �5 adaptor and TomTom telling me where to go I am sorted.
