Well, I don't know about Norway, but here you get stuck for long time during traffic while commuting to work. While being stuck people read entire papers. They work on laptops. They put on make up.
And, in Amsterdam including the ring motorway around Amsterdam (A10) you actually have WiMAX coverage. So if I were living near Amsterdam and commuting to Amsterdam I would
for sure
sign up for 15 EUR a month WiMAX. And I would for sure do all kind of things in my car whilst 'driving'. And according to your pathetic defintion of 'smart' I'd be stupid. Heck, even someone who is phoning non-hands-free while in traffic jam can get a fine, but is it really not safe?
Smart people can do unbelievably stupid things. Law is not always justice either. What happened to
responsibility
? Sometimes its smart to drive less hard than the maximum speed allowed, sometimes its smart to drive through a red light.

That is what I had in mind. I had in mind some kind of keybind (or sensor
) which changes between stylus and finger mode, using some simple gconf2 settings.
