WHY is there no USB in my car???

USB = ubiquitous, no? That's why rechargeable USB devices don't always ship with separate power cables. The power through the USB cable is sufficient for recharging.

But there is no USB port in my car! Not only that, we've been teased for years by false promises of in-car technology and computing. Remember the Clarion Auto-PC, or the Empeg player?

Alas, would you like to know the *real* reason I am writing this? It is to kill time while my Pharos GPS Bluetooth transceiver is plugged into my TiVO's USB port as a power source for recharging. There, that ought to be enough juice for now.

Over and out.
