Zune HD a major sellout?

Sep 19th 2009 7:53PM on Engadget

Just for those who are wondering how many Zune HD were sold, I work for Newegg and when I checked the stock on the Zune HD the morning of the release, at about 10am PST Newegg had sold well over 2K of the 32GB and sold out of the 16GB. And I seriously doubt that if you included Amazon, Best Buy and all the others you would get a very large amount of Zune HD sold. I'm sure come next week MS will announce how many they sold in the first week to put their investors' minds at ease.

For those of you with a Zune HD already, i'm jealous, wish tuition didn't double this year so I could get one myself.

PS3 Slim already sold out at many a retail store

Is it just me or do i still think my 60GB PS3 is worth it. It would be cool if the PS3 slim would come with PS2 support, I would pay more to have one system for all my PlayStation games. Also, it would be cool if there was a way you could trade the PSX games in for a free download of the game. But I guess I'm asking too much.

Netflix Blu-ray movies showing up cracked and unplayable?

Apr 19th 2009 3:39PM on Engadget

It's happened to me a couple of times, and its always a crack in the outer edge. I just send it back and get a new one, only once has one movie been craked 4 times in a row before I gave up on trying to get it. The movie was "Dirty Harry" but it was probably just a fluke for me.

Digital TV transition delay bill fails to pass in House

Huzzah, so what if 6.5 million people are ready, that's 6.5 million people that I can say are legit idiots or don't care about watching TV. I wonder how many fall into which category?

PlayStation 3 used to hack SSL, Xbox used to play Boogie Bunnies

oh Engadget, you made me laugh with the last line. Put on some virtual reality googles and mix it with the balance board and you got.....Tron. :P

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."
