    As far as I can see

    cell phones haven't improved peoples' lives so much as they've altered and distorted them in ways that aren't much good at all. The degradation of public spaces, the further erosion of privacy, and the even-greater swelling of the coffers (and the political clout) of the telecom industry don't strike me as unalloyed positives. So why would I want a $600-one-of-those?

    Hey! I got an idea! How about Salon initiating an automotive section? I hear Mickey Kaus is available. He and Camille could do a he-said/she-said column about the latest and hottest cars. It'd be cute!
