Tommy, I am waiting for the arrival of a product similar to the one you have except with EVDO + self (battery) powering + bluetooth support. In effect, what I want is a mobile phone but "hold the voice, keypad, etc.). Maybe Nokia will come up with one of these do-dads since they are into the "no-wires" paradigm these days.
