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.
After all these years of waiting it's finally come true!
Kinda reminds me of the Mattel Easy Bake Oven that my sister had as a kid...
Yes, but we're still waiting on the one that makes bacon.
Pancake is a lie.
Yes, I have been SITEing by, waiting for one of these. I'm so excited I am going to SITE down right now and try to calm down.
(38 comments and I am the first to notice that typo, wtf?)
Yeah I noticed that too.
Then again, I don't remember the last Engadget article that didn't have a typo...
@Kamokazi: new to engadget huh?
oh yeah, i looooove pancakes...
John, agreed. This device plus a bacon add-on equals best invention in the history of mankind!
@ rsm
sure. your "sister".
I, for one, welcome our new robot pancake making overlords. But if it it doesn't also make sausage and some nicely basted eggs, I'm going to keep going to IHOP!
Uhh, Zarniwoop, this machine is what restaurants like IHOP will probably be using...
Reminds me of a tortilla maker.
I use a big pan to make up to 4 pancake at a time. I hate making one at a time. I eat it before the rest are done.
Meh, they look overdone to me. FAIL!
Mothers have become redundant.

I've been reading Engadget religiously for the past two years. I'm having difficulty stomaching your articles. Besides your lack of proofreading (seriously, its just a paragraph right? Try reading it again before posting), your use of the word "dude" makes me cringe every time. Make like an Apple and please censor your dictionary of this word and we can be friends.
We must have waffles! We must all have waffles forthwith!

This product is a poster-child for our incresingly obese populous.
Less work and more food.
As someone who's had to make pancakes for 600+ people in a single sitting, let me tell you - this is a really nice piece of equipment - and it's not aimed at the 'fat and lazy' market, it's aimed at the people who, ya know, actually need to make a large amount of pancakes.
It constantly amazes me how people can't seem to fathom needs outside of their own...
Give me a break. I see these appearing at the continental breakfast of a hotel chain not feeding Barney an endless supply of pancakes.
Even if this was supposed to be a residential kitchen appliance some people prefer to do something productive instead of cooking all their meals from scratch. I am happy to leave the mindless jobs to the robots.
You just missed it! They already have those just a couple posts back!

And this comment is a poster child for our incresingly elitterit 'populous', too.
"elitterit" eh?
There's a chef somewhere with a tear in their eye.
Dee, I'm already crying, and I'm hardly a chef. Man, cooking shouldn't be about automating everything. Kitchen gadgets have a place, but this sort of thing is just offensive.
Better see a doctor about that "tear" or he might go blind.
Tear as in teardrop genius.
I thought this was so badass until I saw the price :(
(someone should make an automatic bacon machine!)
It's worth every penny!
Only $3500.
its not mass producing, but still awesome

mmm bacon
FOR SURE!!!!
Pigs walk in one end, on the other crispy, fresh, bacon!
That would be sweet. Just push the live pig in the box and bacon strips and Chorizo just start pouring out. Add a beer tap and my life would be complete.
I thought $3,500 was pretty cheap for such an amazing device. I'd expect to pay nearly $15,000 for something like that!
It's worth it ONLY if it plays this music as it churns out hot, pancakey goodness:

The greatest innovation in human history.
you, sir, never heard of baconaise.
@Amish...I had never heard of baconnaise either until i just googled it. I might be forever in your debt...
Now THAT is a revolutionary product!
I don't know... it's kinda the next logical step after the Cornballer.
I can imagine a fat person sitting under this while an endless supply of pancakes drop in their gaping maw.
I'm picturing Barney from the Simpsons, lying on the ground, alternating between having his head under the keg spigot and the pancake machine output roller.
That is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen.
I'll take one, with the bacon attachment. Thanks.
and a diet coke, got to watch my figure.
I wonder if it has a dedicated sugar compartment only for the USA version.
I remember the last time I made pancakes: this morning. I folded in blueberries I picked off my patio.
I think I'm in love...
make sure to fluff your egg whites and fold in carefully. do not over beat your batter or you'll get flat pancakes.
Those pancakes look crap way too fat.
Trust me im a pancake got dont need any machine to churn out enough of my perfect sized.
Anyway how are you meant to fill those with ice cream sugar syrup watever sweet stuff u can find and then fold it over.
In fact I can probably make them faster, since i can make 2 at a time and flip them with one hand each.
Too fat? You're thinking of crepes, not pancakes.
Totally different things here.
You can make 200 an hour?
"Trust me im a pancake"
What?!?! A talking pancake that flips his brothers and sisters with one hand?! I'm glad we have a machine that kills 200 of you per hour.
