I've heard that south of the equator it's the cars in front of you that receive what you're streaming (if, you know, you're driving real fast).

It works pretty well at 55mph, but as you get over 60mph, your music is streamed to the radio in the car behind you; at around 70mph, it's a couple cars back from you that they're hearing what your N900 is playing; and so on, as your car's speed increases.
I've heard that south of the equator it's the cars in front of you that receive what you're streaming (if, you know, you're driving real fast), but I can't address that claim from personal experience, and the physics underlying it just doesn't make sense to me.
This is a bluetooth issue? because they don't hear regular calls...

Bluetooth should be fine, but 3G connection depends... The thing here is the swithing from one network cell to another. Cell switching causes some problems with the internet connection, i.e. the stream will sort of hang for a while. So you gotta hope that your provider has designed its cells in a manner that doesn't cause your device to do constant cell switching. They might have thought this with railways and highways, but you can't be sure. And you definitely need to buffer the stream enough.

Thanks, I've asked what sort of buffering the 07 Prius MP3 player has in the prius audio forum.
What's a "large" buffer?
I am proud to say that a google search for 2007 prius mp3 buffer yields my thread as a first result

I was more or less thinking the buffer for N900 internet radio. Shouldn't be any problems with the bluetooth connection.

my question would be why drive a prius at high speed. a 'normal' car is much better for the environment if you ever venture over 30mph....... 
as it stands you are using a 1.5 to drag half a tonne of batteries around.

Haha the speed limit on I-95 is very fast. Depending on the state it can range anywhere from 55 to 70+ depending if your near the cities it goes through. Average I-95 traffic speed if it's not rush hour is around 70+ despite the speed limit being 65 lol.
.Anyway the problem I have streaming music from the N900 (mp3s in this case, but assuming you have good 3G coverage it shouldn't make any odds) at speeds ranging from rather slowly to super-duper fast, is that I can't usually find an FM frequency band that stays clear for long enough, which means it starts out ok, then gets static-y due to interference from commercial stations.
Now this may just be the band I'm choosing (anyone in the UK found some clear bands to use?) and the fact that the UK has a reasonably crowded FM spectrum.

If you have a big buffer on your player, it should be fine. AAC+ and lower quality MP3 can be transmitted as 2G speeds, so you should be fine. Just don't fiddle with it on the road!
@dick:
No, you got it all wrong. When you go over 88 MPH, the music time warps and you hear the song in reverse! Duh, everyone knows that...
