We've scoured the Jalopnik archives for some of our best imagery to provide you with 22 high-resolution wallpapers that will work with both the Apple iPhone and the new Palm Pre. Both devices utilize a 320x480 format, so any of the wallpapers can be swapped between the two if you're a true Gizmodo-like gadget freak. We've even provided you with a handy guide for installing wallpapers on both at the end of the list, just in case you haven't figured out your newfangled touchscreen devices. If you find a wallpaper you like and absolutely must have; install it and take a picture to show us in the comments below.

2009 Corvette ZR1: First Drive
The 2009 Corvette ZR1 is the best car ever made. It redefines what performance cars are capable of, not by its numbers (the 0-to-60 in 3.3 seconds and a 205 MPH top speed figures are no longer noteworthy north of $100,000), but by how it makes those numbers so accessible. Simply put, the ZR1's most remarkable achievement is how easy and unintimidating the chassis makes exploiting the car's 638 HP. The only problem is I'm not good enough a driver to fully do so.

While the S1 won't win any style awards and doesn't offer the flexibility of an iPhone, it does allow you to fully submerge it in water up to 3.3 feet for 30 minutes with a pressure resistance of up to 400 kgs. Let's see your silly iPhone or Crackberry do that without a plexi-case. As well as offering extreme outdoor durability, the S1 packs a mighty punch in its feature list. A 2 mega-pixel waterproof camera with built-in flash, torch light, GPS, FM radio, 2GB memory slot, J2ME Java, Bluetooth and an Opera Mini WAP browser.

An extra-long life battery provides over 1500 hours of standby time with 18 hours of actual talk time, though we wonder how you're going to geta cell signal when you're out in the middle of nowhere. The Land Rover S1 mobile phone is available only in the UK at GoMobile stores for around $490.

The likelihood of a Land Rover owner actually needing an indestructible mobile phone seems limited to the rigorous shopping trek up and down Rodeo Drive, which we hear can get pretty wild.

California
Younger than 18

• Complete ban on communication devices: includes cell phone handsets, hands-free headsets, integrated vehicle speakerphone systems, text messaging, etc.
  
• If you're caught using any kind of a communication device it's a $20 fine for the first offense and $50 for every subsequent offense
  
• Offenses will go on your record, but not count as points against your license
  
• Emergency calls for police, fire or medical help are permitted
  
• Use of a hands-free device is a secondary offense, meaning an officer can't pull you over for that reason alone; use of a handset is a primary offense, and officers can pull you over for that reason alone

18 and older

• Ban on handset use
  
• Hands-free devices are permitted, including Bluetooth headsets (as long as both ears aren't covered), speakerphone systems, cell phone speakerphones, etc.
  
• Text messaging is permitted, but if you are pulled over and the officer thinks you were distracted, you could be ticketed
  
• The first offense results in a $20 fine and each subsequent offense results in a $50 fine
  
• Offenses will go on your record, but not count as points against your license
  
• Dialing on the handset is permitted, but strongly discouraged
  
• Push-to-talk cell phone systems (similar to two-way radios) are not permitted; they are only permitted for commercial truck drivers not in pick-up trucks
  
• Emergency calls for police, fire or medical help are allowed

Washington

• Ban on handset use (a complete text messaging ban has been in effect since January 1)
  
• Hands-free devices are permitted, including Bluetooth headsets, wired headsets, speakerphones, Bluetooth speakerphones, etc.
  
• Exceptions to the law include emergency use, emergency vehicle operators, tow truck operators or a hearing-impaired person using a hearing aid
  
• The hands-free and text messaging bans are both secondary violations, meaning an officer can't stop you for that reason alone
  
• Fines can be as much as $124

Options
There are plenty of options that comply with the new driving laws in California and Washington, most of which are cheaper than the fines associated with violations.

Cell phone speakerphone
This is the cheapest option in most cases. Many cell phones have an integrated speakerphone that can be activated with a push of a button. Just be careful about holding it too close to your ear.

Wired headset
Wired headsets are a dying breed, but remain one of the cheapest and easiest options. Many cell phones include a wired headset out of the box, but for those that don't, one can be purchased for cheap. Like less than $10 cheap.

Wireless headsets
This most commonly means Bluetooth headsets. For driving purposes, these are some of the safest to use because you can push a button on the headset to answer the call and hang up. They also provide great clarity and are easy to transport. Be warned that if you wear the headset outside of the vehicle, many people will think you are a douchebag.

Third-party speakerphone
Third-party speakerphones include those manufactured by companies like Motorola as well as those already integrated into your car. The Ford Sync is just one example of an in-car system that includes a Bluetooth speakerphone.

Hands-free devices like Bluetooth headsets will still be permitted, as will emergency calls. The fine for violators will be $200, but with school zones generally just a few blocks long, what is the Chatty Cathy to do during a lengthy conversation? Put the phone down for the two blocks? Also, what are the chances a police officer will be in the school zone to actually do the enforcing? Perhaps what's needed are crossing guards with photo radar. And kevlar vests. [Dallasnews]

• 80% of cell phone owners talk while driving
  
• 40% of cell phone owners between 16 and 30 text message while driving
  
• 60% of teens use cell phones while driving
  
• 65% of baby boomers between 45 and 61 use cell phones while driving
  
• 78% of users between 18 and 30 use cell phones while driving
  
• 80% of users between 31 and 44 use cell phones while driving.

If you are really interested in holding a cheap plastic Ferrari to your ear, this phone sells for a couple hundred dollars and includes the features that usually accompany a low-end knockoff cell phone like an LCD screen, media player, etc. [ChipChick]

Other than the dual-SIMs, the HT2 is a quad-band phone, therefore it can work just about anywhere. It also has a media player, 2-megapixel camera (for taking picture of your pristinely garaged Hummer), Bluetooth, microSD expandability and more. It will be available first in Russia and Latin America. [Giz]

Also integrated into this car phone is Bluetooth technology and, unlike car phones of yesteryear, it can indeed leave the car and travel with you outside of your minivan. So in all reality it's just a cellphone with Bluetooth and GPS, but Motorola decided to put a nice spin on it and call it a car phone. The phone will be available in June worldwide.

Motorola Redefines Driving Experience with Smart Rider™ In-Vehicle Phone

Fixed in-vehicle device improves enterprise solutions for professional drivers, with interactive voice activation, GPS services and more

CTIA WIRELESS 2008 - LAS VEGAS, Nev. - 1 April 2008 - Motorola, Inc. (NYSE: MOT) today announced the debut of the Motorola Smart Rider™ phone, an innovative in-vehicle solution featuring GPS navigation, interactive voice activation, Bluetooth™ wireless technology and exceptional audio quality that's sure to make this phone an integral part of every driver's journey.

We are confident that the worldwide success of this flagship product will speak for itself," said Golan Haver, business unit manager for Motorola Car Phones.

Availability
The Smart Rider will be sold worldwide and will be available on the market in June 2008.

Though we've got some cell phone driving laws in this country, we don't take them as seriously as the Brits in this article. The guy who took the pic was quoted as saying "Everyone knows you can't use a phone behind the wheel. Perhaps he thinks he's above the law." We're all for safety on the road and are not big fans of anything that causes someone to take their eyes off the road but this seems just a tad ridiculous. [Daily Mail via AutoBlog]

Early rumors suggest that the handset will be similar to the iPhone with a completely flat touchscreen display. It will come in Lamborghini colors (presumably red) and will run Windows Mobile 6 Pro and include GPS, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. [Unwired View]

"I borrowed a friends car yesterday so I could get some work done on mine. On my way home from the mall I decided to charge my cell phone. The moment I plugged in my charger a zap and some smoke came from behind the stereo, within 25 seconds flambes and melting plastic engulfed the entire dash I pulled over and bailed out with just enough time to grab my new sneaks and my rented dvd. The best part was having the tires explode and the gas tank rupture when I had the owner on the phone. By the time the fire trucks arrived the car was toast. On the brite side there is one less Taurus in the road. So anyway that was my monday night."

State Your Position: Nissan Tests Cell-Phone Intelligent Transport System in Japan [internal]

Picture this. You're driving along, listening to the latest from Fall Out Boy (heaven forbid), when a pedestrian (coincidentally, also listening to Fall Out Boy) wanders off the curb and into your path. That's it for them, right? No. Your car saw him coming. Well, not so much him as a blip in its data bank, as indicated by the careless sot's GPS-enabled cell phone. It's Nissan's Intelligent Transport system, and it uses the latest 3G cellular communications technology, just introduced in Japan (W-CDMA, for the house geeks). It's undergoing tests in Japan to see how well ITS can receive data from pedestrians and other cars in the area, then process that data to determine the actors' relative locations, and warn the driver if they get too close. No word on a Fall Out Boy—weighted algorithm for extra safety, but we're sure that's possible. – Mike Spinelli

Hands-Free On My Mind: Georgia Military Installation Bans Cell-Phone Yammering [Internal]

Word came down from Tokyo today that Toyota's developing a cell phone with Japan's #2 wireless carrier, KDDI Corp (in which Big T owns an 11 percent stake). It's not just any throwaway burner, mind you; the handsets — dubbed "TiMO" — which are based on an existing KDDI phone made by Toshiba, will tie in via Bluetooth to navigation and other systems already installed in the company's cars. The service will include downloads of music, games and various manner of digital media, as well as an emergency telematics dealie that may or may not involve a team of unicorns that cascade down a sparkly rainbow to provide 24-hour road service. The phones will go on sale this October in Japan at the company's automotive outlets.

Toyota to Offer Upgraded Satellite-Based Communications, Like On-Star [internal]

We think we like the word "motorcars" so much simply because of Angus Young of AC/DC's "Brown SG" rant, where he proclaimed that modern guitars look like "motorcars" and that he wants to open a shop that only sells brown Gibson SGs — and then goes on to paraphrase Henry Ford by saying, "You can get an SG in any color you like, as long as it's brown." Now that we're done with the tangent, we'll admit that part of the reason we're writing this post at all is the title of the source article: "Phone Vigilante Attacking Motor Cars."

While we prefer the compound "motorcars" over "motor cars" it was still close enough. And some guy around Hampshire is going around slashing the tires and leaving notes on the vehicles of motorists he sees using cell phones while driving. That's the gist, the authorities are on it, and at least one of the victims doesn't even rock a celly. Poot.

It's also considering a ban on cell phones while driving which would be the most stringent in the nation, including hands-free devices. The reason? A whole buttload of college students who like to yammer on like the wayward sons and daughters that they are. Will they ban talking to one's passengers next? Carpooling? Will everyone switch to Corbin Sparrows or Toyota i-Units?
