      Agreed, since the auto manufactures are clearly not talking security seriously, you just can't trust this technology.

      There was/is a way to hack into cars via blue that the tires wireless sensors use to provide tire pressure to the car.

        Dafyre - is the mifi worth it? why not just do wireless sharing from your cell phone? why the added expense of another line on the account?

          In theory you can mount the mifi and attach an external antenna and it doesn't have a battery to kill (or not like a phone) so you can power it from the car without causing issues. It's better designed for being a permanent car wifi station.

            @Dashrender This was a hypothetical if I were to just get rid of my cell phone. 8-)

              I'm laughing at the unsubscribe page on eFolder's website... got some spam, clicked the unsubscribe link, and saw this...

              I have not had time to review their great successes of 2010, but I'm expecting big things in 2011...

              btw, 'unsubscribe' is being underlined as a misspelling @scottalanmiller 😄

                    Doing some late Chef builds, got some pizza in the oven, brie bites ready to go in when the pizza is done and thinking about playing an hour of The Raven: Legacy of a Master Thief before turning the gaming over to my daughter to play Dust.

                            Oh the fun of driving across the country to see clients. That's what @g-jacobse is doing this morning too.

                              Played about half an hour of BioShock before going to bed. It took a bit to get it all set up as we can't play it while the kids are awake, so needed to wait for my daughter to pass out from playing Dust all evening. Then we had to set up the Mac which we finally got sort of talking to the television, and set up my wife's laptop and streamed BioShock from the Windows laptop to the Mac laptop. We were both amazed that somehow it actually worked. Not great, but worked.

                                Sitting out on the balcony getting caught up here waiting for some onsite work to begin.... turns out we had a tech drive eleven hours just to restart a switch that had crashed before no employee at the site, including the on call local IT guy from another firm, was willing to just power cycle some devices before putting someone in the car to drive two states away to just power cycle things!!

                                    Oh we are, no question there. They had a staff of three on a five hour call yesterday trying to troubleshoot an issue that was hardware failure they could have determined in minutes.

                                      @scottalanmiller lol. For that customer, they should get the IT Crowd voicemail: "Try turning it off and on again and then call us back"

                                        They wanted to. I can't believe everyone at that site isn't fired today.
