Omg, I was cracking up at Josh's Droid commercial voice impression. "You're a man's man, man!" That whole bit killed me! I had to pause it to catch my breath.]]>Jun 21st 2010 6:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/19/engadget-podcast-201-06-19-2010/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/19/engadget-podcast-201-06-19-2010/Jun 19th 2010 5:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/19/engadget-podcast-201-06-19-2010/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/19/engadget-podcast-201-06-19-2010/Jun 19th 2010 5:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/19/engadget-podcast-201-06-19-2010/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/19/engadget-podcast-201-06-19-2010/Jun 19th 2010 5:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/19/engadget-podcast-201-06-19-2010/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/19/engadget-podcast-201-06-19-2010/Jun 20th 2010 7:09AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/19/engadget-podcast-201-06-19-2010/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/19/engadget-podcast-201-06-19-2010/Ha!

SO, IN Rock back 3 you can plug in your own Keyboard, and Electric drum set MIDI and it will work as your controller.
Why not any electric guitar?
Because:
A. You can make the same notes on a guitar in multiple places, so not knowing where your fingers are, would mean you could still be playing the song incorrectly
B. Lets say you dont know how to play guitar, your finger fret position shows up on screen, so you dont have to look down at the guitar to know where your hand is, and your subliminally learning the frets, And you can see where your fingers are also (ala rock band 2 etc the colored tiles light up when your pressing on them so you dont have to look away)

+ Im sure it would be much less responsive in expert mode to determine all those notes together etc. with only listening and no sensors to know your finger positions

You can't blame Mr. Wolbe for going on a psychedelic voyage into the unkown, or worse the Hamptons. Forcing your millions and millions of podcast listeners to have nothing to listen to while we ride our fixies in capry pants and flipflops. No sir, I will not blame Trent for what nature made him. I will however suggest you find another blogger hipster, a blogster if you will, to sit stilly and quietly, waiting, while you podcast your pods, so that said blogster can do the deeds that need done, immediately after the pod has been cast, so that I have something nice to listen to while pondering my thoughts and pedaling my pedals

With Love,

P.s. Loved Trent on the mobile podcast. How is he taking it, that the DroidX has no kickstand? Hope he gets well soon.

P.s.s. Almost went with Hipogster. Hope I made the right choice.

P.s.s.s. No love for the RSS feed? Sorrys don't heal a broken heart.

guys know how to entertain and enjoy themselves]]>Jun 21st 2010 1:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/19/engadget-podcast-201-06-19-2010/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/19/engadget-podcast-201-06-19-2010/
1. Not a big fan of this whole 3D technology that nintendo and sony is working on. It's either perfect or it fails. That's the big gamble with it. Based on thoughts of the 3DS, I think the resolution is small enough to pull off and not to mention you don't need glasses and a ton of other accessories. Sony on the other hand has two obstacles upon them. The glasses costing about 150.00 or so, and perfecting the image. If i'm shelling out that much more money for an accessory, it better be a perfect transition, or else it's not worth it in my honest opinion.

2. Kinect and Move. Personally, I love the concept of kinect, but truthfully, it doesn't make sense to buy it now, and developers will have to eventually figure out how to fully utilize this new technology. Move on the other hand seems like a ps3 with a wii type capability, which i think is a smart move for them, even though more than likely the market that their aiming for probably have both systems, cause the wii is pretty affordable.

3. The android summer. Verizon yet again brings out another Droid phone. This isn't exactly a bad thing per se, but much like Joanna said, I don't think that there is that big of a market for gigantic phones. Not to mention I don't see why someone would jump to the next carrier just for a bigger screen (not to mention if they're the type of person to do that then putting out a similar phone wont really stop them)

4. Buying things online. I agree with Paul. I hate buying things online. Call me old fashioned if you will, but there's something about going to a store, seeing exactly what you want, and then walking home with it the very same day. I hate buying something, and then having to wait a week for it. Then it's quite possible that that when i do eventually purchase it, i might not like it due to differences of seeing it online, and not in front of my face. I'll only buy something online if it's no where to be found and going online is my only option. As far as pre orders are concerned, (especially for phones and certain electronics) I like to get it a few months later, so that most of the bugs and kinks are taken care of before i decide to shell out cash for it.
