Look at the facts: she has a successful tech career, she is an engadget editor's boyfriend, and i cannot remember at any time in engadget history where there was such fascination (by the editors or the readers) with one teach reporter. So, it is a reasonable conclusion that she is getting all this exposure at engadget because she is someone's boyfriend. Before you get all feminist on me, I bet Veronica and her man are probably at CES together in the same hotel room. Can just anyone with a successful tech career sleep in the same room as an engadget editor?

You are worse than those heterosexual males who are hootin and hollarin over Veronica. Putting words in men's mouths so that you can make a self-serving statement. Seems like you are the only one operating under gender assumptions.


In other news, when did Giordi La Forge get boobs? Its his eyes that needed the work.

First off, she has to lose the giant microphone - its completely unnecessary and constantly gets in the way of her demonstrating gadgets, which is what this is supposed to be about - get a wireless lavalier and take out a small hand mic only when someone else needs to talk.

She is also covering stuff very superficially like a local news reporter would, not a gadget blogger. And yes the constant bylining is completely unnecessary and annoying. Finally, the casual attire is ok for the audience but please at least take off your backpack.

By covering stuff superficially, a perfect example is this post - the whole reason she is there is to get the story, not reiterate the press release. She needed to actually *put these glasses on* in the video and *tell us what she thought of them* - not just pick them up and give us pricing, specs, and availability - thats phoning it in.

Granted. Her newscasting, the one or two segments that I bothered watching, comes across clean, but for gods sake, either you are gay, a 'best friend', or whipped beyond belief, that you won't appreciate the looks of a woman. Regardless of their position/affiliation/etc.

This pic is all boobs. How about highlighting the product and not the "reporter."

Next up, disturbing first pictures of "iPhone2" in front of Ryan's crotch.

Also, for those of us who cant watch any of the videos at the moment, can you at least TRY to include some of the gadget specs in the text of the posts?

I enjoy a nice little video in between all the white page posts with pictures.
