I would like to be able to play internet radio in my car. It does not currently have bluetooth but lets for a moment assume that was enabled. Is there anyway to reliably access the web in a city with good coverage while in the car?

Well, if you put a laptop on the passenger seat, you could access the web whenever you're in a hot spot. If you're talking about satellite radio, it can be easily installed.

And there's digital HD Radio. DICE makes a unit available from the PriusChat Accessory Shop.

just did this driving from SF to San Diego using a laptop and a samsung blackjack, was perfect most of the way down the 5, and the wife was able to finish here homework online. I can also just use my phone to stream music if you don't have a laptop.

Hi davo619, welcome to PriusChat. If only the Prius could handle stereo headphone Bluetooth...

Now your talking bill. That would be too cool. MP3s from your phone, played in stereo via bluetooth.
