You have a dinky little RF remote-controlled car. CES has a full-size,
tricked-out Honda Civic that can be controlled over WiFi by a PSP. And
we're not just talking about amateur moves like honking the horn or
changing the radio station--you can actually drive this Civic
(illegally, we presume) down the road using Metro Electronics in
America's wild mod. As if piloting your car from the comfort of your
sofa wasn't enough ("Civic, time for a beer run"), when you do feel
like getting behind the wheel you'll be carting around a virtual Best
Buy, as this Frankencar sports an eye-popping 24 LCD screens. Obviously
this little proof-of-concept is not/never will be for sale, but an MEA
spokesman quoted a fantasy world price of around $250,000.
