Worth a shot!

Ask Engadget HD: Does cable, satellite, or fiber provide more HD?

I can't believe no one has mentioned the ads that Comcast has been running touting 211 HD "Programming options" vs. Direct TV's 70. What BS, I have Comcast, so where are my other 180 HD options, hmmm.
And Craig, I hear you brother, I had D* with Tivo for years. Ended up switching to Comcast because the HD bird was so low in the sky I couldn't see it without topping my neighbors trees. Comcast HD wasn't worth it. I pay so much more now for so much less programming that it makes me sick to think about it. I think this may change very soon when D11 gets up in the sky. I just hate to lose my HD Tivo.

Will you still be able to order it with XPpro?

This is really a great innovation.

Holy crap, almost 3000 entries now, but odds are still way better than winning powerball.

I like the track pad in the remote. Cool.

NASA's six-legged ATHLETE bot will roam the moon

Oops, my bad. ATHLETE, duh! I suppose I should read the posts more carefully.

All Terrain Hex Limbed Extra Terrestrial Explorer? Terrestrial means having to do with earth. So by rights this thing should never leave the planet. I suppose they could change the name to ATHLELE or ATHLEEE, for Lunar or Extraterrestrial respectively, but I suppose that wouldn't sound as cool.
Another issue I see is the wheel design. Isn't a lot of the lunar surface a fine dust similar to the deserts in the Middle East? Looks to me like this thing with twenty tons even at the lunar equivalent on it would just sink right in.
However this thing is still way cool none-the-less.

I saw that unit on "It's all Geek to Me". I think the consensus was that it sucked.

Researchers tout breakthrough in single chip parallel processing

@tyler
Yeah, "640K ought to be enough for anybody."

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I'm looking for a pair of quality headphones that aren't seemingly made of glass. I'm an avid BMXer which causes me to frequently bash on any type of technology that joins me for my daily riding. I've been through the higher quality headsets in the Skullcandy line as these are supposed to be built for "abuse," which is laughable. I cant wear earbuds or canal buds, as my large ears seem to have a repelling property upon anything that sits in them. Wired or Bluetooth doesn't really matter, but I need something that can hold up to taking a few hits every now and again. I'm trying to keep 'em under $150. Thanks!"
