Have seen several posts that reference the "transmission" for the prius. I wasn't clear on this, and found this wonderful toyota site that goes into fair detail on many aspects of the prius hybrid system, including comparing some performance aspescts of 2001 to 2004.

This particular link is to the section on the planetary gear, but other sections have other info. I figured that those that hadn't seen this would find it informative; I know I did.
