Myers Motors gets $250,000 investment for NmG2, the secretive two-seat electric car {Autoblog Green}
Jun 16th 2009 11:33AM Batteries in this older design have been a problem, but according to a couple University of Akron students, "they" have been working on a new controller design. I don't have any details, but did enjoy checking out the NmG some time ago: http://is.gd/13wUP

Engadget's Netflix HD streaming shootout {Engadget}
Jan 19th 2009 11:28AM Netflix/Tivo and the cablecard drama:
I'm with Time Warner and it is a nightmare. Still fighting with it since the end of summer, but all is working. I do enjoy the streaming movies in my Netflix $9.99 (BlueRay is a buck more than $8.99) package. I only wish they were downloaded similar to the Amazon setup which gives you 30 days to watch and 24 hours after starting. (having the portability for Airline travel would be nice too)
Thanks for the comparison.

Diesel VW Jetta Sportwagen a real fuel-sipper {Autoblog}
May 8th 2007 4:04PM I will be shocked it the EPA sticker (revised or not) comes back with 60MPG Highway on it. I won't be surprise when drivers squeak 60 MPGs out, but it won't be the norm. My current A4 Jetta is smaller and has the 1.9 TDI and has rarely turn in over 50MPG. Lifetime average is 45 MPG ... 70% highway.

Are Xebra EVs zero-emission or not? {Autoblog Green}
Jan 29th 2007 8:14PM Perhaps the batteries themselves emit gases when they charge and discharge? Pretty minor, but nevertheless I would want to be a closed room the bubbling from batteries going on.
