New things come out and people use them. 20 years ago people didn't even know the web existed. A hundred years ago people used horses instead of cars. I don't think anyone is proposing we go back to those ways of life. Or that we cannot live without these new things. The issue is not "if we can or cannot live without these". The issue is "does one see an advantage to using them". And each one of us get to make our own choice. |

When someone says, "I could never imagine having a car without it," that person's imagination is extremely limited--because for years, he did have one without it. What he's doing is refusing to admit that he could live without it. He's being a spoiled, selfish brat. One wonders what will happen when the asteroid finally hits... |

He's not taking anything away from anyone else. How is he selfish? He can afford to buy it himself. How is he being spoiled? |

Of course, one would think they could not over-price it because an RSX S runs around 23500-24,000. At 20.5, it would be about what I paid for my 01 Prelude I bought at the end of the year when dealers were trying to get them off the lot because they were discontinued -- and therefore undesireable. |

If you pull out a map more than 2-3x a week..... then get a Nav unit, 2-3x a day... better get a good one. its just like anything else. would I get a $150 a month 5000min cell plan if I only wanted it to call AAA if I break down....no... while if I am working Realestate and I am on my cell phone for 3hrs a day I would wanna get that plan.
