Walt Mossberg – Apps Raise the iPad’s Aptitude for Real Work
Even as gas prices hover around $3.80 a gallon, many Americans still drive their gas-hogging SUVs, mini-vans and trucks. Some of these vehicles get as low as 10 to 12 miles per gallon on the highway. The problem is that it is still cheaper to just fill up your tank for $100 than to shell out $25,000 or more to buy a new fuel-efficient car, such as a hybrid Toyota Prius, which uses a combination of gas and electric power.
Along with original content and posts from across the Dow Jones network, this section of AllThingsD includes Must-Reads From Other Web Sites — pieces we’ve read, discussions we’ve followed, stuff we like. Six posts from external sites are included here each weekday, but we only run the headlines. We link to the original sites for the rest. These posts are explicitly labeled, so it’s clear that the content comes from other Web sites, and for clarity’s sake, all outside posts run against a pink background.
We also solicit original full-length posts and accept some unsolicited submissions.
