If you're a "Dashboarder", that is, someone who connects to the Internet while traveling, Netflix is the plan for you:
"A roadtripping purist might insist that a glorious fire-red sunset is as good as it ever gets, but we've always enjoyed movies as an occasional escape. Going to a theatre is not always possible for dashboarders on the move, and although chains like Blockbuster have offered nationwide movie rentals for several years, a trip back to the same store to make returns is not always convenient."
"One feature that makes Netflix the clear choice for dashboarders is the ease with which a subscriber can change the 'ship-to' address. A few keystrokes on the www.Netflix.com Web site, and travelers can receive movies wherever they expect to be. Netflix spokesperson Peter Mullen suggests that customers change their 'ship-to' address with enough advance notice to ensure that the title goes to the right location, but there is no restriction on the number of times this address can be changed. Wal-Mart's DVD rental program also allows frequent changes to the 'ship-to' address, but some companies require that the 'ship-to' address match the credit card billing address."
I thought you were going to say a Dashboarder was someone who leaves Netflix envelopes on the dashboard, DVD baking in the sun. Hopefully there aren't too many of those.
