An much more importantly... [2] It illustrates the demise of Saab at the hands of GM very nicely. Reading through the list of Saab's advanced features, we have...wait for it...BlueTooth. So someone walked into a computer shop, bought up a load of BT harware, and wired it into the car. Wohoo. You can even use it to access the Internet! That's really great - real technological advancement there, well done Saab. What's more, the car has a myriad of settings which it can remember for each driver - even their preferred wiper speed. We'll, I know that'd sure change my life. A nod to safety with the moving head restraints and millions of airbags (because that's what the public wants - no one is interested in how strong the body shell is; just how many airbags will go off when they crash). I dunno, maybe I'm feeling grumpy this morning, but that article didn't go down well... -- Grunff
