From the latest R.A.I.N.:

USA Today reports that various auto makers and technology firms have teamed to
bring in-dash PCs to 2007 model cars in the U.S. The PCs now available in new
Ford F-Series trucks, which run Microsoft's XP software, can play Internet radio
and MP3 music files.

What's more, experts predict that these PCs' Internet access -- now through
wireless data services -- will soon be Wi-Max or a similar technology.

There's more detail in today's issue of "RAIN: Radio And Internet Newsletter,"
