Congratulations to Engadget...

After watching the show, there is one thing I just wanted to suggest for Joshua: brush up on your public speaking. I am not trying to put you down in any sense, but for someone who is pretty intelligent and knowledgeable, your flow of ideas and speech is constantly interrupted with "Uhhh" and "Ahhh." This is coming from a person who had the exact same problem until my manager suggested I brush up on public speaking and I took a course. Needless to say, it helped a LOT.

Anyways, once again, don't want to make anyone feel bad or come off insulting. I just thought you could take a little time to brush up on your speaking skills so it will make your presence on the show more credible and appealing. Best of luck.
At least Indians know how to spell, douche!

Although CC's flagship product is soda, they still offer many healthy beverages. Visit http://www.thecoca-colacompany.com/brands/brandlist.html to see how many low calorie, low carb products they offer.

People do need positive reinforcement to break bad habits, but that is only true to a certain extent. If you walk up to a dispenser, see the choice of Water or Coke, and choose Coke, that is your decision.

Despite the fact that many foods are unhealthy, our bodies are built well enough to tolerate them as long as we exercise moderation. Instead of bitching at CC and McDonald's for offering unhealthy products, people should reflect on their own personal choices and ensure that whatever they are eating is not posing a serious risk to their health.

Also, keep in mind companies like CC and McDonald's get hammered by activists and lobby groups all the time. Why not take the energy and time aimed at corporations and instead launch a campaign focused on personal choices, healthy living and moderation? Some people need to complain and bitch to make themseleves feel better; I find it sad that people need to be reminded it is unhealthy to eat unhealthy food.
At the end of the day, the consumer decides what they want to drink. I'm so tired of people blaming corporations for producing unhealthy food. If you don't like it, don't eat it - and most of all, don't bitch to the entire world cause no one gives a $hit! If they were putting these dispensers in a Kindergarten classroom, I might agree with you.

Also, by driving innovation like Coke is doing, they are actually reducing packaging waste. I think is more efficent and beneficial to have one machine that can dispense 100 flavours instead of walking into a Subway and choosing from 100 different bottled drinks in a fridge.

Anyways, stop crying and go back to planting trees you environmental hippie douche.

Maybe you should ask your grandma to compare Exchange email on the **iPhone** vs. BES email on the BlackBerry
I understand usability and simplicity is obviously important, but please take your head out of your ass and realize no one gives a $hit if your grandma can use a BlackBerry or not.

Maybe you should ask your grandma to compare Exchange email on the BB vs. BES email on the BlackBerry, cause that's what RIM does. Email. It's core functionality in itself is not a simple task, let alone making it available 24/7 on the go.

For the record, I worked at RIM and I'm not a big fan of them at all. But I-phone Is I-sexaayy is a good example of someone who got an iPhone and became iGay with it.
The BlackBerry platform has one of the worst browsing experiences on the market. I love my Curve, but take your head out of your ass and don't make false claims.

Tool.
Funny how Engadget has to combine two completely independent announcements from Nokia and Microsoft into one article...

Has anyone ever seen Apple share an article with another company or product? Just some food for thought :)
wow... how did ppl post so fast! lol thanks ryan BLOCKK!
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"All of these new nettops have me intrigued. I'm looking for a small, quiet and cheap PC to replace my aging tower in my home office, and all it really needs to do is load Microsoft Office, check email and surf the web. Is there a particular nettop that's better (or a better value) than another? I know it's a rather new segment, but hopefully someone has taken a chance on one already. Thanks!"
