      Did you check all the fuses and also check the factory relays. -damien

            im swinging in that area...

            now u cant start your car right.....turn the key very very little, and i bet your clock and stuff will come on. if not then there may be a dead spot in the ignition switch.

            i had that issue...everything would fade and then turn off...the only way the car turned on was if the key was almost in the "start" posistion and if i held it there.

            if fuses and stuff is ok, look into it...its like 45 bucks or so, about 30 minutes to replace with beer.
            What makes me laugh about forums, is that no matter how much you try to help someone, they dont take the advice. Go ahead and do it the hard way.

            You got to respect what you drive, and appreciate what you have, making the best of what you got. and if that means putting CAI, HID's, a phat stereo system, and a idiot in the drivers seat...then so be it!

                what were you doing to the car under the hood to before it began the sympoms? One thing that people usually forget to mention when it comes to problems like this is...

                In the engine bay right behind the headlights there are these 2 little boxes that are bolted to the side of the bay. they are about an inch and a half square and half inch thick. theres a bunch of wires that go into the box. these are main grounds for the majority of systems in the car and if they are removed some things will work some wont much like the issue you are having. i would unbolt both and clean up the grounds and bolt them back down.

                I learn the hard way when i was cleaning up the wiring in my engine bay what unbolting these things does.

                  If the car dies while driving there is a good chance that it is your alternator, i went through two batteries like an idiot before i figured that out. >.<, so get that checked out, and dont do the shitty load test they offer at autozone or where ever you go. Take the alternator out itself and take it in [if thats what you believe that problem is] thats my 2 cents.
