Tesla Model S. Very impressive looking. 265 mile range = 426KM = good enough for anyone in Ireland. No mention of the price tag there, but I bet it's horrific.

These will replace petrol/Diesel.

Would you read the permissions of each ap before you install them?

Are antivirus applications necessary on the Android mobile platform?

Most aps on google play store that I look at are all taking the proverbial lately with the permissions they want, turning on your microphone and taking pictures is shockingly common aswell.

Much easier road to adoption for electric. I'll be interested to see what wins out.

Just installed that there. I'll give it a whirl. Sounds good though.

On permissions: I have to admit I've stopped looking at them for the "big" apps. If it was something that didn't have a large amount of downloads I'd have a look alright, but I agree that I think in general they're taking the proverbial a bit.
