Wi-Drive: A New, Eco-Friendly Commuting Option in Marin County CA
Workday commuting from Marin County to San Francisco is a trip undertaken by tens of thousands of people each day. Logistically speaking, the trip is a fairly easy one to make (by car, boat, bus, or even by bicycle across the Golden Gate Bridge) however eco-conscious consumers in Marin County now have a new option worthy of consideration.
A San Francisco-based company called Bauer's Intelligent Transportation is now offering Marin to San Francisco commuters the opportunity to commute in high-style (and also in a more eco-friendly manner) on one of their unique "Wi-Drive!" buses.

- Plenty of table space and power outlets for working on the go
These eco-friendly commuter buses offer high-style and conveniences typically reserved for the home or home office.

Sounds like a great idea. The cost is not much more than some toll fares in other cities and much more convenient. It will be interesting to see how well it works.
