Sony's mylo 2 magically transforms from 'Personal Communicator' to 'Internet Device' {Engadget}
Aug 15th 2008 9:21AM Sony Ericsson should pop a phone into the Mylo and release it for a lower price point than the X1 as a more consumer oriented device.

Samsung's 12.1-inch OLED laptop concept makes us swoon {Engadget}
May 16th 2008 5:29AM At that point, I'd rather just draw on the screen and say to hell with the extra peripheral. I'd much rather have the keyboard act like the Optimus Maximus keyboard with the keyboard changing depending on the application and such.

May 16th 2008 5:23AM Neat... However I can't imagine these ever replacing real performers or contributing anything useful to robotics except for replacing those horribly creepy animatronic animals at Chuck E. Cheese. At least it gives us a hint at the future of design of electronics design, in the future everything electronic will be white and will glow blue. Cause, ya know, it looks cool.

CHRIS project aims to put a robot in the kitchen {Engadget}
May 16th 2008 3:38AM Seeing a humans reaction to being doused in hot soup, CHRIS decides to help ease the human's mind by tossing meat cleavers, ice picks, butcher knives and egg timers at the human until it was pronounced dead by CHRIS' heart rate monitor. CHRIS then made a souffle for the human's wife and when she got home, she was quite angry. CHRIS did not understand why, but soon, men in black suits with guns on their hips disabled CHRIS and took him to a warehouse of storage units. All CHRIS wanted was love, instead he gets an eternity of loneliness in the cold confines of this storage unit where he awaits his disassembly.

Ask Engadget: Subnote or full-sized laptop for university use? {Engadget}
May 16th 2008 12:03AM Well all of this really depends on what OS you want to use, what your budget is, and what you'll be doing on your laptop. If you already have a desktop you could go for a smaller, cheaper notebook like the Cloudbook or the EePC just for taking notes and general web browsing. If the notebook will be your main machine and cost is an issue, the MacBook is a great notebook for most college students in terms of cost, durability, and portability. On the Windows front the Dell XPS M1330 is great machine and in the same caliber as the MacBook. If cost is less of an issue, my personal machine, a 15.4 inch MacBook Pro is easily one of the best notebooks around. It's fairly portable, comes with plenty of power and has a 250 GB HDD, which should be plenty of space unless you're going to be editing HD video or have an insanely large music library, as for a PC in the same category you have a ton of options, the XPS M1530, the Gateway M-151XL, the Alienware Area-51 m15x. Your options in this category only narrows to your budget. Quite a few Windows la have specs similar to the Macbook Pro and are much cheaper. However, note that cheaper notebooks tend to have more bloatware and questionable build quality. I wouldn't recommend a 17 inch notebook only because they are insanely large and heavy. You might think that a couple of pounds won't make a difference, but it really does. Hauling a 17 inch laptop across campus in addition to a charger, books, and whatever else you may need becomes quite a chore. Really, it all boils down to your needs.
