A look back on popular stories from today in a specific year.
Now that we've thrown 'em off the trail, use the form below to get in touch with the people at Engadget. Please fill in all of the required fields because they're required.
3g iPhone First!
that is so 2004 of you....
Dude,the new thing now is
Commented!!
I'm surprised that Engadget hasn't posted on Microsofts restrictions on what sort of hardware qualifies for an XP license on the cheap.
That's usually right up your alley. If anyone's interested, they're pretty extreme restrictions.

Until the EU hit them with another huge fine for that.
and fairly sure you should stop linking to impatientsufferance. This aint a place to advertise your blog. Almost all your posts have a link to it.

I might have just got fired. I couldn't stop laughing at that.
LTO
OMG i laughed so hard i started to cry. thank you for that, it made my day.
new macbooks and an atom based sub yet ?
You know what I want, a cheap mac. I'm a pc person, I swear by them, I hate macs. Yet, I want to screw around with OSX. Thats right, I want a mac, a mac that doesn't cost twice as much as its pc counterpart. Please, give me a 400 dollar mac. I tried to install OSX 10 in two of my pc's, yet my sata drives were not being recognized. I have made fun of macs and mac owners for a long time, but Leopard has grabbed my interest. So please, let me have a decently priced mac.
Hummmm.
So two lectures, Opps, I mean Jobnotes.
Were while in the Steve Jobs RDF he will announce the
2.6 MacBooks
and
3g iPhone
and we all clap like looneys LoL
We all clap?
I've always been rubbish at sudokus. I'm expecting liveblogs from those seminars, Engadget!
I'll be there. I'm really looking forward to it.
At first I was like :|
then I got to "low fives" and I was like XD
I know a lot of people in the UK, haven't purchased an iPhone just because it doesn't suppport 3G, but when it does they will buy it the day it comes.
The only thing stopping me is the 3G and tack tile feedback.
He will likely disscuss the way forward and possibilites in developing software for the iPhone and his vision, not the 3G iPhone!!!
This is the first time developers will be able to official develop something for this new platform of device.
tack tile ? humm... interesting. is that one of those staplers for your flooring ?
No LOL
It is the physical feedback you get from a device you either touch it or input something like a letter, you may like get a physical vibration from the device.
This is useful to let you know if you have inputed the right letter instead of just typing on a flat surface.
something just went *wooooooooooosh* past WuFu's head
This amount of failure is just cute.
exactly like Jeff Dunham with Peanut... Reeeooouuuuuuurrrhhhhhh (over the head)...
Any idea when this supposed "3G iPhone" will be released?
I was *THIS* close to picking up an iPhone last Sunday because it was going to be a birthday present from my parents. I asked the AT&T guy at checkout whether or not 3G was coming out since I heard about all the rumors. Of course, he had no idea and stated it won't be out for another couple of years. Then again, maybe he really was uninformed?
Maybe I was being selfish when I put out the idea to "wait" to get an iPhone and purchase a plan, but perhaps I was just being smart and looking ahead? I really hope the 3G iPhone comes out within the next month and a half already. As much as I may sound like a fanboy or materialistic, I'm more of a fan of seeing something new and interesting.
@LiQuiD_FuSioN
the dude was trying to make a sale, of course hes going to say in a couple years!
You're right yet ironically most of the UK doesn't support 3G. I'm like 20 miles from London and live in a big town. No 3G on ANY network.
People want the phone to support it despite the network not... Kinda ironic really...
Tactile > "Tack Tile"
Input > "Inputed"
@Liquid Fusion:
The iPhone will be out next month. AT&T employees work on commission, so of course he is not going to tell you that you should wait for the 3G iPhone, even if he knew it was coming out.
@ Michael
The UK is setup for 3G. I live in Plymouth (right in the sticks) and there's a 3G service down here and throughout the country from what I've looked into. Not sure what problems you've been having.
Am I the only one hoping for something about Mac Minis to go down?
Nope. I really want to see them go down. If they drop enough there's a good chance I'll get one as my college computer this fall semester.
Nope :)
I don't think you are the only one, but there isn't such a big crowd following as for other macs like the notebooks and iMacs.
Like the price?
@WuFu
I think they would have more of a following if the price dropped.
I'd just like to see the mini released with an optional GPU upgrade, at least on par with the macbooks. This is the only thing currently keeping me from popping for one to replace my old PC at home.
You aren't the only one. :-)
I'm waiting for a better GPU amd ESATA. the mini would be a good (mini) server and a awesome MythTV front-end.
The mini is already an excellent HTPC. I'm running 720p HD on it with zero pain (1.83 MHz, 1 GB, 80 GB). It cranks on everything SD too.
Stop sitting around waiting to live your life!
Landmark? Sounds like Microsoft Office is coming to the iPhone in one form or another.
Why would a 1986 volvo ever need its engine replaced?
The diesel Volvos weren't known for their reliability... so if it's a diesel, it could actually need a new engine... ;)

It wouldn't be no where near as funny as it is if it weren't true.
edit: It would be no
Need more coffee.
LOL!!!!!!
Cant wait for the Shirt Keynote.
A new iShirt perhaps?
Brand New iPants coming next month. They fold really thin, but only have one pant leg. Also, no zipper.
@ Isak?
No zipper, how do i do my weekly Tuesday night Private activity???
This could get awkward...
