I've got one of those too. I couldn't recommend it more. I picked it up second hand for less than $100 - they don't come up often at that price, but it does happen. I rarely get to use it though, because I've got child seats in the back, and it won't fit with them installed - but that's a situation that won't last forever.
I actually forgot (when I posted above) the #1 reason why I drive with the top down and windows up -
Because I'm on the phone.
Our cars have bluetooth handsfree, so someone will call when you're driving around with the top down. You can pull over and put the roof on, or you can just wind the windows up and keep on driving.
More often than not, if I'm doing less than 100kph with the windows up and the roof off, it's because I'm on the phone and want to hear what the other party is saying.
