Well these new little crocks look like they would fit in the sink easily. 
 
I don't wash directly in the r-pod sink; I wash dishes in a plastic dishtub.  That way, the food particles and grunge don't go down into my holding tanks.  heh heh
I'd rather be Podding. :)

It's a toss up between the following:
 
Macbook Pro (unibody) with a Verizon Wireless WAN card
                                         or
                                      HDTV
 
I can't decide.   (sad, I know....)

Plantkiller, I am sitting in the Ahwanahee historical hotel in Yosemite typing this to you on a Mac book Pro. As I watch people enter this grand lobby where we have free internet access almost everyone is using a Mac book!

Lover your selection of camping favorites.

Last campground I was at, there was a guy with a toyota prius in an RV spot with this tiny one man tent.  He was sitting outside on a stump with his macbrook pro, a HDTV tuner and was watching CSI Miami on his mac with the TV tuner and accessing the internet using some kind of cellular internet usb card thing.
 
I joked with him about it.   He said he had a limited camping budget.  After he bought the macbook, the usb HDTV tuner, and cellular card, and a rechargable battery back with AC/INVerter to run the laptop.  That he had maxed his camping budget so all he could afford was the tiny little tent.

The MB Pro is for work.   I am in technical sales so I have very unsual hours.   When a customer has an issue, I need to be able to connect to their network to troubleshoot and fix things ASAP.   Downtime equates to lost revenue.
 
The HDTV is for my wife.   She loves to relax at the end of the day by watching some primetime shows like 24, CSI, etc...   The way I figure, if she's occupied watching TV, she won't be bugging me and wanting to talk and discussing our feelings and stuff...   Smile    The POD is too small to have my own private space.

"He was sitting outside on a stump with his macbrook pro, a HDTV tuner and was watching CSI Miami on his mac with the TV tuner and accessing the internet using some kind of cellular internet usb card thing." 

I was just checking into something like that.  With such small space in the pod I thought that would accommodate all our needs when we do more traveling. _popupControl();

I take it that you dump the water outside then?  That would be a no no.

Nope.  Just strain the dishwater through a paper-towel lined sieve.  That way the food particles go into the trash rather than into my pod.  LOL
