poker while i drive

I know it might sound like an unsafe idea.... but

anyone know if there's a way to play poker while you drive?

I've got this killer commute and it would be a lot easier on me if i could play poker, 1 table would be fine for me, was thinking voice activated (hands free, comparable to talking on a cell phone).

Any ideas, also do they have anything available for cell phones?

thanks

You can't be serious. What roads will you be driving? I need to avoid those.

I once saw a guy driving on the freeway in chicago with a newspaper rested on his steering wheel.

Damn, you PC whiners make me sick. I've driven with a hamburger in one hand, a coke in the other, while talking on a cellphone, and driving with one knee. And I drive a stick!

This is not something to be proud of. Do you see why?

You should take everything you read on the internet with a grain of salt. Do you see why?

Actually I've been told that there are pros who do this, they prefer driving to tournaments over flying, so that they can still play.....

dunno how they're doing it though

I read it in a thread here in 2+2 that eric lundgren does this when driving to vegas. I think he just uses a laptop and a cell phone on doesn't sound too hard. Though I don't think I would do it.

Erick Lindgren said that he used to do it, but realized that it was dangerous and decided that it was +ev to rent a limo and play on the drive. (I think it was in an issue of MAXIM)
You are a fool if you think this is a good idea. Also, you can expect to go to prison if you cause an accident that results in bodily harm. This is so far over the line of reckless driving that you can ve fairly sure that the judge will through the book at you. At least you'll be the answer to a trivial pursuit question:
Who was the first person to go to prison as a result of Internet Poker?
