I have worked in the computer industry since the 1970s and *am* a
luddite. (I drive an AMC Hornet with a factpry AM radio and an
underdash 8-track player. I peek in on this newsgroup periodically as
the wife has a Sonata.)
As far as XM radio goes, not only would I not be willing to pay a
monthly fee for radio, the whole idea of listening to radio programs
from outer space coming from some kind of sputnik does not sit well
with me. I remember when people who claimed they were doing this would
be locked away in rubber rooms.

Re: Hyundai in the news
well my 2 cents ... ill pay for a head unit but will prolly never pay
for radio unless the FCC dont bother with censorship due to "foul"
language ... and even then i would find myself listening to cd's the
majority of the time finding new music to listen too through friends
(like xm has a real punk station)
also now lots of head un you can purchase support .wma audio files
which puts about 400 normal sized songs onto one cd ( about 1500 songs
and thats if im remembering the numbers correctly )
so i would rather see .mp3 and .wma capabilities than xm on a vehicle

Re: Hyundai in the news
hey man ... i noticed your spamfighter add-in ... have you tried mozilla
mail? it uses a very good "learning" spam filter, within in a month it
catches some 99.9% of spam. i have been using it for a year now and
havent seen about 10 messages i had to mark as spam in 10 months ...
http://www.mozilla.org/products/thunderbird/ <-- mail client only
http://www.mozilla.org/products/mozilla1.x/ <-- whole product suite
using it for web browsing (took some gettin used too) has virtually
eliminated spyware/adware. now instead of a daily scan for that junk i
can scan once a month and still only have a few tracking cookies (have
to use IE for some sites still )
later
