Wii FAQ: answers to your Wii questions {Engadget}
Nov 20th 2006 1:13AM Two other of my own answers to questions above:
1. We didn't see anywhere to connect the Wii to an ethernet connection. We were convinced it was just wireless, but didn't consult the manual.
2. The lag is noticeable in some games, but not very bad. Personally, I felt like the gameplay was pretty awesome. Red Steel seemed a little too sensitive (way non-laggy).
Wii FAQ: answers to your Wii questions {Engadget}
Nov 20th 2006 1:09AM My brother-in-law got a Wii this morning and we spent part of the day playing with it at my parents' house. It was fun. We got my mom playing, plus some other family members who are total non-gamers, because to them, the Wii looked like fun (whereas most consoles don't appeal to them). My mom kicked my butt in Bowling and Golf (in Wii Sports, not bad for an included game). We also played Zelda and Red Steel. Good times.
The Wii tried to update itself on my parents' wireless connection for about an hour and failed with an error message. It got on the internet, but couldn't update for some reason.

Sony's PRS-500 eBook reader subject to another delay {Engadget}
Jul 25th 2006 5:15PM $350 is still definitely too much money, when people could buy a PDA for the same cost that views ebooks, plays MP3s, and even has wifi. As DC said, a paperback book is still way preferable, especially when they mostly just offer best sellers in this format which go for less than $10 in the grocery store checkout line.

Jul 24th 2006 10:28PM Geez, no wonder our kids won't be able to do math. They will never notice with the Diebolt 2015 Cash Delivery System starts charging a 50% service fee.

Apr 14th 2006 12:52AM Not to be cruel, but it's a little funny when you think about it. It's unlikely they heated up really quickly, so the kids who burned themselves were probably just so completely engrossed in what they were watching that they held onto the players, even when they were really, really hot. Maybe.
