This is one reason I really hope the Kindle's text to speech gets more friendly.  It would be awesome to have a text 
copy of the book on your Kindle but then plug it in in the car and have it read to you.  I tried it but right now it's 
just too robotic!

This may stir the political pot some, but Takedown by John Markoff and
Tsutomu Shimomura is an outstanding read as well. ?In my opinion it's
really the next logical step after The Hacker Crackdown by Bruce
Sterling (which is required reading IMO).

For those unaware, Takedown is the story of how Kevin Mitnick landed
in jail for 4.5 years pre-trial (including 8 months of solitary, poor
guy).

Years ago, I read The Fugitive Game, by Jonathan Littman, which
provides another perspective on the Mitnick story.  I enjoyed it,
although I can't find audiobooks of this or Takedown, unfortunately
(would love one of Takedown, since I never actually read it).
