AN IDEA WHOSE TIME WAS ALWAYS HERE

While much of the coverage of the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas focused on whose television was the biggest. One television was 150 inch, even if your house has a wall large enough, where do you position the easy chair? At the neighbor’s house across the street? There was one gadget which may have a larger impact on society.

Are you a closet performer? Does the shower screen turn you into the latest pop idol? Do you sing along with the radio while driving? You do? And you admit it? After many studies of distracted driver and cell phones, some genius has come up with . . . car-aoke. Now the car pool lane can be your ticket to stardom as you and your crew belt out the tunes on the beltway.

You thought that cell phones were distracting to drivers, now try to program which songs to sing at 70 MPH, and just where are the lyrics displayed?

“Life in the fast lane, surely makes you lose your mind”
