OAK to San Francisco transportation?
Will be flying into OAK to take advantage of some cheap fares. What's the best way to get to San Francisco (Nobb Hill)? I'm thinking some kind of auto-transport, not bus. Should I just take a cab, or is pre-arranging transport better/more economical?
Thanks!
Thanks!

I posted this question previously in the S.F. Airports section. Here is the thread -- a TON of info.

I realize I'm biased because I'm lazy and I have the money to do this but here goes:
If you have about $30 - $40 bucks just take a cab. To do the BART thing, you have to get to BART from OAK which is a bus ride and then a train to probably Embarcadero station and then a cable car or bus to Nob hill. And then you walk to wherever. Total cost under $8. See:
