You make fun of devices like this one that look a lot like the iPod or iPhone, yet the similarities between new UMPC designs like the MSI Wind to the shockingly successful and well-established Asus Eee go unpunished on Engadget. What's the deal...when you're talking American market no-names, is MSI really any higher quality than Newman?
If you're going to poke fun at the companies that are "keepin' it fake," at least show some journalistic consistency by noting what the companies you respect more have done to earn that consideration. Oh, and if your answer is that I can look back at your archived posts...my follow-up is that your in-line text links rely on tags instead of actually linking to a useful article or article index. Look at www.dcist.com for a better example of linking using both tags (at the bottom of each post near the permalink row) and direct article links (in the text body of the articles).
Sorry to pile on the rants, but I've had them building up for a while...you mentioned "Engadget Style" in a post a while back announcing openings to work with Engadget, so I just wanted to put in my suggestions to keep your writing snazzy and street-credible:P
