Mozilla scores enterprise email win: 130,000 French government PCs switch to Thunderbird

Exactly... Thunderbird is fine and dandy, but the lack of Exchange or Lotus Notes is crippling in a business.

Open Source doesn't always equal better...

Yeah, I was annoyed by that... but at least we have real links now.

Your link is crap, it's just the same exe and two box files that was originally provided by Digital River in an ISO file. That won't help anyone... see my post below for the links to all 4 versions.

On a side note, I'm having SERIOUS problems getting these downloads to finish... they'll get to certain points 2MB, 4MB, 8MB, 103MB, and just quit. I think the server is getting hammered and it's just cutting the downloads off.

Sanyo unleashes two iFrame compatible Dual HD camcorders

Oct 14th 2009 8:42AM on Engadget

That's weird, it IS an Apple format. They just published this knowledge base article today outlining what the iFrame format is and they reference these two cameras specifically: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3905

TiVo survey hints at new name, direction for Series4 boxes

Apr 20th 2009 4:12PM on Engadget

It was clear, even during the Series 1 days that Lifetime meant the lifetime of the box, it was NEVER officially transferable without an additional charge. You will continue to be charged for transferring it to new boxes because that was never included in the original terms.

Recent Apple patent filing speaks of stealth biometric security on iPhone, other insane insanity

Anyone think it's interesting that there's an app called "Terminal" on the mockups? Are apple engineers using Jailbroken iPhones for mockups now? lol

Seagate unveils 6TB BlackArmor NAS

I had to log in just so I can comment on how incredibly awesome the pictures are in this article.

"I'm looking for a wireless trackpad to use with my older (2.5 or so years old) C2D MacBook that's perpetually docked to my home theater. Something sleek, thin, not too small, made of high quality materials. Ideally, it would natively support all of (Snow) Leopard's multitouch inputs, and even more ideally, it would have a charging dock / base. The only problem is that I'm not sure that such a thing even exists. Think you can throw me a bone?"
