The longest autorotation in history was performed by Jean Boulet in 1972 when he reached a record altitude of 12,440m (40,814 ft) in an Aérospatiale Lama. Because of a −63°C temperature at that altitude, the engine flamed out and could not be restarted as soon as he reduced power. By using autorotation he was able to land the aircraft safely to the ground.[citation needed]

Look up:

Helicopter will only fall at close to terminal velocity when the pilot cannot control the angle of the blades anymore. If the motor shuts down -> they can land relatively safely using autorotation from any height. Knowing how to do autorotation is included in getting your pilot's license. Every helicopter pilot has to be able to do it.

Also this:

Anssi Vanjoki, 44, has been ordered to pay a fine of 116,000 euros ($103,600) after being caught breaking the speed limit on his Harley Davidson motorbike in the capital, Helsinki, in October last year.
His fine beats an earlier speeding penalty of 80,000 euros handed down to internet millionaire Jaakko Rytsola.

Wow a neutral article from Engadget, this will be remembered in history books.

I think it's resistive because RX-51 has much bigger display than the iPhone/Pre. Capacitive screens of that size would be quite expensive.
This is just the first Maemo-device and I'm sure others will follow with capacitive multitouch screens as they get cheaper.

Googled about the Z500 and found this:

If the slides are objective and can be trusted then ARM crushes Intel.
Hope Intel can make a better chip than the Z500 since more competition to ARM means lower prices to customers.

Excuse my several personalities but seems I already had an account I didn't remember on this email address under the name "ssc" and when I posted using the password provided by Engadget, it fetched the username and used it instead of "Ernest"

@nerdtalker
Different architecture yes but they are targeting also the netbook & MID market in addition to cellphones.
I think they can be compared when talking about the netbook & embedded devices market. x86 is outdated. If Intel doens't make significant changes and optimizations to Atom and Linux becomes more common and popular since XP doesn't run on ARM, Intel will have no chance.

@Eleazar
Yeah I forgot to clarify I was talking about netbooks in particular, not automobile specific applications. My comment was mildly off-topic since this article is about specialized uses instead of netbooks.
