...laptop--as long as the device includes wireless technology. Ford recently demonstrated a wi-fi-- enabled SUV that can wirelessly connect to your PC and allow you to transmit movies and MP3s to the car's entertainment system. Despite concerns about driver distraction, the satellite-radio service Sirius has plans to stream video to backseats in 2006 models, starting with cartoons and music videos. Eventually, cars may be networked so they can communicate with one another about roadside information, traffic updates and weather conditions while in transit. The manufacturer might even electronically transmit information to your car about...
...smart, enjoyable films if the stars are properly aligned. It helps that Azkaban has one of the strongest plots in the canon thus far. Harry (Daniel Radcliffe), now 13 and in his third year at Hogwarts' School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, is challenged by the escape of the notorious Sirius Black (Gary Oldman) from Azkaban, the Alcatraz of the wizardly world.

After years of unmet promise, online stations, along with satellite offerings like Sirius and XM Satellite Radio, are building audiences even as regular radio struggles through a decade-long slump (time spent listening is down 14% since 1994, according to the ratings firm Arbitron). Critics say industry consolidation has turned AM/FM stations into McRadio: nationally uniform, repetitive and clogged more than ever with ads and promos...
...satellite guys, together claiming around 2 million subscribers, who are drawing Wall Street's attention. Though their stock prices had plummeted over concerns that they might run out of cash, their shares have soared in the past year. XM is up 379%; Sirius, 491%. Analyst April Horace of Janco Partners in Denver predicts that within five years 16 million Americans will be listening to satellite radio. She says the market would explode if a popular shock jock like Howard Stern were to defect with his 15 million listeners, a prospect that looked more likely last week after six traditional stations...
