GM's Driverless Car
Easy enough for a child to operate, this latest innovation makes commuting a snooze. It parks, passes, speeds up, slows down, plots the route and can even arrange its own financing. Thousands are currently being road-tested on the nation's highways (with mostly good results). Crash-proof operating software provided by Microsoft. Advance orders now being taken for Cadillac Transporter ($69,000), Buick Cyborg ($39,000), Chevy Droid ($31,000).
