He probably desperately wants people to use the term so he can take credit for it, and he probably gets a kick out of it when people are confused by it. Dropping a product means halting the production and/or discontinuing it. Dropping a product is not synonymous with releasing a product.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mike Browning]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 28th 2006 9:16PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Fossil drops three more Bluetooth watches]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/28/fossil-drops-three-more-bluetooth-watches/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/09/28/fossil-drops-three-more-bluetooth-watches/</guid><description><![CDATA[If I were working at Engadget, I would try to find a way to use "drop" in every post -- just because it pisses so many people off.<br><br>It's a tech blog, not the Algonquin Roundtable.
