Hello all I have velcro mounted a libretto 100ct subnotebook laptop on the transmission tunnel of my Prius. I use it for maintaining a mileage/cost/maintaince log, and recharge off the vehicle. This neat little notebook has long been redundant for me as a working laptop. I am very pleased however to find it a new life for this singular task. It's also small, (about the size of a vhs tape) and the gray color nicely matches my interior. I was just wondering if anyone else is running (and i'd be intrested to see photo's) PDA's or laptops on a daily basis in their Prius. thanks very much Froley
Pretty neat. I guess it can handle the heat pretty well? Also, does it boot up when the car starts up for do you have to manually start it up? Too bad you cannot hook the display into the Prius MFD and use the keyboard to type.

It is on manual start up...... but I use it for recording fill-ups, weekly mileage etc. so thats not a problem. There are times when I stop for a coffee or what have you and still use it for (very slow) wireless when i do not happen to have my "real" laptop with me. I do tho enjoy the idea of putting older tech to a good useage. thanks Froley
