Equally suited for urban commuting and suburban recreation, the unicycle requires a rider to merely stand on its two folding feet pads; gyroscopic sensors detect a rider's subtle feet movements while accounting for a shoulder-slung backpack or bag for its center-of-mass calculations. Forward leaning results in steady forward acceleration without jolting, while leaning backward brings the unicycle to a slow, steady stop. A rider controls side-to-side balance and turning with subtle leaning.

To help our society dealing with the global warming, Ford also gives a big hand as well by launching a new factory-installed remote start system which will reduce hydrocarbon, CO, and nitrogen oxide emissions by up to 75 percent.

The new system preheats the catalyst on cold starts, which is where up to 95 percent of emissions typically occur, prior to the first few accelerations during any given drive. The system combines with automatic climate control to measure inside and outside temperature. It activates the heat, heated seats, and defroster on cold days, and kicks in the A/C and cooled seats for warmer climates.

However we will have to wait until 2011 to get this system operated.

Do you want to fill your car with just everything you want? I guess this digital car compass is one of those things that you are looking for. It doesn't tell you the time but also Temperature and Calendar. Anything else? The perpetual Calendar Clock function with alarm and snooze function.

Cathrina Lloyd is one of this product users who can give you some words:

This thing really does what it's supposed to. It keeps time very well, and the display is big and I have to trouble reading it. The temperature display at the bottom seems accurate, and can tell me the temperature inside my car, as well as outside, with the cord. The only thing I found annoying was that the compass turns off after a while. It's easy to turn back on with the press of a button, but I don't use it that much, so it's not really a bother. I haven't tested the alarm clock, but I like that it has one, just in case.

All-in-all, it's a great product and I recommend it to anyone looking for a car-clock.

If you find this Digital Car Compass useful, you can buy one at Amazon for $31.95.
