    David Pogue, tech writer for the NY Times, has a pretty funny music video about the iPhone on the NY Times site. http://video.on.nytimes.com/?fr_story=f390...7e921d39b6c99aa
    He apparently is a Prius owner as he hops in his Prius to head into town to buy his iPhone. The video is good and I guess it is not suprising to see a tech guy like Pogue is a Prius owner. Maybe he will write a new book, Prius, the Missing Manual.

    I saw that video earlier today. It was pretty funny and corny. I didn't notice that was a Prius though. It didn't look like one to me.

    Yeah, corny video but it's definitely a prius. You can see him put it into drive from the dash. The added "vrooom" as he pulled away was a bit hokie though.

    I looked at the video again, and yes, he drives a Prius!

    Pogue has written about his Prius in his supplemental pre-blog email and web-only column back in 2004. Here are the links (free with NYTimes registration):
