First... An FM transmitter is the way to go. The wrong COP and it's a fine. My sister found this out. I dont have an IPOO er ... Ipod so I cant use the one Tony pointed out. http://www.griffintechnology.com/products/itrip/ There are others to choose from so not a problem. As for finding what I want on my Zen.. Playlists help and traffic lights also :P I dont plan on getting a PS3 so who cares what they are doing. I still spend 90% of my time on the computer. I might dole out some tax money for something portable... Although.... I think a new pistol will win that round. I think game companies should learn from valve... Sell a great game... fix the "few" issues... let the fans rent thier own servers and be content with that. If they want more bucks from the same engine... sell map packs or different games based on the same engine. I quit playing Dark Age of Camelot because of paying a monthly fee for a game I had grown frustrated with. No way would I Give up the info EA wants or pay the 2 bucks ... guess that is a game I will not be buying. Sean ... I dont know if your wife playing games is good or bad ... I cant get my GF to get past MSN games and even that has dropped my out of BF2 due to lag. I cant afford a second dsl line into here just so she can share my interest in games. BF2 ... My current addiction :) The patch did make some good changes. Helos are no longer the God machines that they were. They lowered the damage threshold so they fall easier..... although... if they ever fix the stupid AA missles ... they will probably have to look at the Helos again. As it is ... I still play it with a certain level of enjoyment and also hope for the potential I see in it. If anyone sees Floyd flying and Gman gunning ... better hope we are not in the groove ... otherwise it might be best to just hide and wait for the end of the round :D Later Guys G Great show as always.

That was a lot of fun. Give me a shout if you are ever in a bind, and need a last minute guest. Now I gotta listen to it and get all weirded-out about how I sound to myself. :) Hey guys,
