Earlier this week a BT engineer come round to fit ISDN in my new house and I discovered an important but none the less secondary fuction of my empeg car.

Seeing it on the table as he walked in he leaned over and inquired 'Is that an in-car mp3 player? I read about it in Linux world!'

Whilst he worked, there followed a detailed discussion on the player, empeg themselves and mp3 in general. The end result of this was him doing extra work for me which he had no obligation to even think about and about five minutes with my empeg. If he's reading this now - then thank you again!

So on to the big question - has anyone been able to secure goods or services over and above the call of duty for a glimpse into the future?

Why did we have to wait until Mk IV ;-)
