Yet another input device suggestion...
Found this while surfing... Cordless Optical Mouse.
Usually a mouse is impractical in a car, but with an optical one, you can use it on your lap/knee/girlfriend's lap  , then toss it in the center console (or wherever) when not in use.
Plus, this one's cordless - (RF).

We have a customer who uses the Logitech cordless stuff. Batteries last about a year.

In the previous Logitech cordless mice, a set of batteries could last around 6 months or longer, depending on how much you used it.
The optical chip is a power hog so the battery life is going to be quite a bit shorter. I would say it will be around 3 to 4 months.
I'm using a Logitech cordless trackball in the car right now and it's great.
