Prius!
Tuesday night I became the proud owner of a shiny new magnetic gray 2007 Toyota Prius! I’m loving it so far, it’s like the ultimate geek car what with the SKS, the ICE, the MFD and all the other great TLAs in the vehicle. I’m looking forward to apply a few hacks to it, including the EV mode button and figuring out how to feed video into the MFD and get the screen touch data off of the AVC-LAN.
I would have pictures of it, but my Nikon Coolpix 5700 has become non-functional. There seems to be an issue with the CCD or something connected to it, as the image contains basically random horizontal lines that jump around. Luckily, this appears to be a known defect, and Nikon offers a free repair for it. So I should have pictures of the Prius once I ship that off and get it back.
Update: I didn’t change anything, just left the camera in the car overnight, and this morning it’s working fine again. I think the camera must have absorbed some of the Prius’s newness and magically fixed itself. Or something.
That’s awesome! Congrats dude. We definitely need to see some pictures when you have a camera handy.
