I can see these suckers velcroed to the steering wheel, scary thought.

No need they will use our window suction support (initially made for boat & truck use)

My goodness. And we can't even seem to mass either a hands free only law or a ban on texting behind the wheel in my strip of USA. I wonder if there was a way foe the acceloromiter to figure out when the it iPad was being missused

Aaah! But the iPad would have something for it as a GPS that would prevent temptations liable to accidents...
No multitasking!...

Considering that in my long-commute days I saw:
Guys shaving
Women putting on make-up
Both sexes blow-drying their hair
Both sexes reading books and/or newspapers
Both sexes eating outsized burgers or sandwiches that took both hands
Both sexes with open laptops or notebook computers wedged between themselves and the steering wheel
Both sexes with a cellular wedged up to their ear while flipping through a file folder braced against the steering wheel

all while driving, let's just say I wouldn't be surprised. In all fairness, while I never saw a guy putting on make-up while driving, some of the women may have been shaving, just not their faces.

Unfortunately that punishes everyone that isn't driving too. My car headunit has a DVD player that stupidly has a handbrake switch, so you can't watch a movie while the car is in motion (mine is bypassed with a switch under the dash tho) but this means that if you are on a long trip and the person in the passenger seat wants to watch a movie they can't. That is pretty lame.

I was experimenting and ipod app also runs while reading on the kindle app and the stanza app.

Try openning a .m3u streaming file in mobile safari and then using other apps (no web-browseing while doing that ), but it works. You can even save the .m3u link to your home Screen.

I admit I tries to hack together a standalone web page with embeded audio stream to see if it could run outside Mobile Safari, but it cuts out when I return to the home scree .
