...mothers in the Boston area currently living with Jetsons-style kitchens as part of a pilot program sponsored by the Internet Home Alliance, a consortium of companies trying to figure out how to make the kitchen of tomorrow a must-have today. The cell phone--controlled cooler/oven comboa Whirlpool Polara souped up by IBMis just one component. Each family also has an Icebox FlipScreen (a TV with a DVD-CD player and Internet access that hangs from a kitchen cabinet) and a Whirlpool refrigerator equipped with a wireless Web tablet.

The Dart has abandoned its curly rear fin for an unadorned, clean rear-fender line, has changed its concave grille to a flat one with a forward thrust. The pizazz model, Polara, will come out only in two-door hardtop and convertible models. Both Dodge and Plymouth retain their 1961 engines but will seem a lot livelier because they are 300-400 lbs. lighter.
