Dell's 22-inch Crystal LCD monitor gets reviewed, panned {Engadget}
Apr 18th 2008 11:10AM fatal design flaw is the glass covers the screen, if it were only on the bezel the glare would not be a problem. matte screens do not make colors pop but as most photographers understand its artificial and not so accurate.
most new dell monitors match or outperform the aging (3 yr old) apple cinema monitors, but look cheep in comparison with matte black plastic bezels.
dell needs to keep working on industrial design and make their monitors look as well as they preform, but not sacrifice on the performance.

Mar 5th 2008 1:26PM it looks like a really nice camera, but it lacks sensor shift IS. the 510 is probably their best value right now, still being extremely small for an slr.
Alcatel-Lucent sends data 1600 miles at 16.4Tbps {Engadget}
Feb 29th 2008 5:05PM actually it makes sense that the throughput on the longer distance would be less because of signal segregation.
"The researchers used 164 wavelength-division multiplexed channels modulated at 100 Gbps in the effort."
so that would be one optical strand, how many can they fit into a bundle like the undersea cables?

Plextor releases two Blu-ray / HD DVD combo drives {Engadget}
Feb 8th 2008 1:33AM honestly if it is cheaper than the LG duel format read only drive aka bellow $300 then its worth it. if the writable and around the price of a BR write drive why not just throw in a HDVD drive as well, its not like you can loose here if it is a reasonable price.
