First Symbian Foundation handsets arriving in 2010

Jun 25th 2008 1:39AM on Engadget

Totally agree with you on here, people here seem to forget the iPhone 1G was a big flop outside the US. In the UK, only 50,000 phones were sold, which is peanuts compared to the big (contract) phones such as the N95, the BlackBerry, & LG Viewty. Hence, the large number of Symbien phones out there.

Also people here seem to forget about the most amount of mobiles sold in Europe and the world are pay-as-you-go, and not contract by about 75% to 25%. Most people who you see in the stores touching the iPhone, are only in it for the free web access to check the football scores or their Facebook pages.

Robots to be our lovers by 2050, not just in Massachussetts

Jun 23rd 2008 1:42AM on Engadget

It all sounds nice listening to all you saying about fembots, but where is my (same-sex and for women) manbot? No all of us come easily to have a relationship.

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I'm pretty much a complete noob when it comes to camera stuff. My wife loves to take pictures, though. So much so that she literally wore out her first point and shoot camera, and the Kodak Z712 I bought for her less than two years ago is starting to act up as well. To compound the matter, we are expecting our first born sometime next year. I fear the Kodak just isn't going to cut it any longer. What would be the best starter DSLR to get? She hates missing photo opportunities due to camera 'lag' so speed would definitely be at the top of the list. Photo quality and features would be next. Price should be no more than $800. I'm not interested in video capabilities."
