@beandogg I'd also be interested in learning about US trials. I've been searching for one since reading this article but can't find any info.

I'm not a developer.... I'm a simple user, and I am starting to get really frustrated as I see these Apps getting rejected. While I love my iPhone, and right now am not tempted to switch to android..... the weaknesses that I had experienced with my phone (mainly over the air podcasts, and gCal updates) were things I was excited to see come out of the App Store when it was launched (along with Sling Player). If someone else can offer that in a slick interface (I've been looking at you HTC Diamond Touch) I'll be very tempted to go back to WiMo or over to Android.

I tried MobileMe for calendars, but without offering any calendar sharing it was totally worthless. If apple is going to block these programs because they offer the service, thats one thing....but THEY AREN'T!

Apple has got to clean this s**t up, and get on the ball! You're going to start loosing customers soon!

I found it fairly annoying that all of your links for Coldplay, the new Album, and X&Y went to "AOL Radio" and not Coldplay pages on the Amazon MP3 page itself....

Who uses AOL Radio anyway? I know you're a child company of AOL, but thats no help to the reader.

(I love switched, engadget, ect... this isn't hate... just a comment).

John Mayer isn't just a "pop star" and he certainly isn't famous just for who he has dated... While most lame pop artists are overproduced hacks who buy the coolest song they can try to preform Mayer writes his stuff, and has the musical talent to back it up. I hadn't heard much of him until I stumbled upon him playing at Buddy Guy's Legends blues bar in Chicago.... the guy has got some chops and can hold his own..... just because he is young and played on mainstream radio doesn't me he has no talent.

The only thing I have issue with is his narcissistic obsession with blogging and sharing his life with the internet... but I feel that way about anyone who blogs, celebrity or not.

Remember..... ANYONE with a registered starbucks giftcard will get free WiFi access...

Jimmy Kimmel has been using iChat for months, he'll connect to fans during the show every so often for a segment called "Internet Talent Showcase".

If you're just watching Kimmel on YouTube... you're missing out - he's the new Dave.

ANOTHER post about ASUS? It seems like every third post on Engadget is about ASUS or the eepc..... I mean, this is way to much, why don't you just change the name of this blog to ASU-gadget. I swear I'm going to stop reading.

;)

ANOTHER post about the xbox 360? It seems like every third post on Engadget is about Microsoft or the xbox..... I mean, jeeze we know how much you all love Bill Gates but this is way to much, why don't you just change the name of this blog to Engadget-Soft. I swear I'm going to stop reading.

I just got a new R61 BUT it crashes all the time, I'm thinking about calling them up and finding out what is going on. We had a 755c back in the DAY, but went with Dell for the last 8 or 9 years....
