What do you mean, my car's cell-phone system is only designed to last 2
years, and that was designed 5 years ago when the car was in design?  And
car companies are more interested in charging $1000 for a $100 dollar part
since you can't get it "factory-finish" on the aftermarket.

Course, you could also have a car that runs on a generator (7kW) and seats 2
with some funky styling (for airflow reasons) and the "entertainment" and
nav system is run from a pc card.  Now if only I could remember who I knew
that was working on that...
