Wii gets rechargeable battery packs with Sanyo's Eneloop {Engadget}
Jul 24th 2008 8:39AM What's so special about this? we had chargers+replacementpacks almost since the release of the Wii...
40GB stock running low in anticipation of new 80GB model {PS3 Fanboy}
Jul 22nd 2008 2:31PM Some dutch site claims the new 80GB will not have USB ports on the front (only at the back) and will NOT have a networkconnector anymore (so WiFi only).. I really cannot believe it, especially the last one, how in the hell could Sony be so stupid to ditch the networkconnector on a device which needs to be connected to a network.. I for one don't have a wireless network and am not planning on getting into the hassle of having to buy and secure the bugger (wirelessnetwork), wire work much better, especially if you are living in a flat with a lot of owners who do have wireless..
Turtle Beach keeps series alive with Ear Force X4 wireless headphones {Engadget}
Jul 8th 2008 2:28PM I wonder if these wireless headphones don't have that annoying automatic turning off if it thinks there isn't a signal (most wireless headphones have a base which stops transmitting if it thinks there hasn't been any sound for a while, but don't have a setting to just ignore it and always keep transmitting) there is nothing more annoying than having a headphone make a big skreek because the base thinks there is no sound and stops transmitting, damn you fooldesigners for not thinking about the fact that it is possible to have a silence for a few moments..
Motorola patent application reveals cellphone / HMD combo craziness {Engadget}
Jun 20th 2008 3:35PM We still don't even have good affordable normal HMD's (with decent resolution, 1280x720 and up), so this is pure BS.. And not to think about how ridiculous you would look wearing this ugly concept..
TI showcases 3D projector and DLP Pico chipset at InfoComm {Engadget HD}
Jun 18th 2008 3:18PM Well, that led based projector seems very interesting if it can replace my Optoma H79 on a 2.5m wide screen with even better lux.. But what I wonder is what happens when one of the leds fails, I don't think it'll be as easy as replacing a bulb..
Sony's Wiimote competitor to come as break-apart DualShock 3? {Engadget}
Jun 14th 2008 10:27AM I never understood why Sony (or developers themselves) just would support the Wiimote, I mean the PS3 can handle the wiimote without a problem (their both BlueTooth capable), the only problem ofcourse would be you couldn't really advertise with it with the real names (unless you would be able to convinve nintendo to give you a license to mention their names)..
Nintendo would even go on making the big profits on the sales of the wiimote (which are sold with BIG profits)..
otherwise, it's not like the wiimote is anything new at all (as some people might think), it's been done before, even by Microsoft (just around when the gamecube was presented)..
Is Apple's iCar in a German auto magazine? Probably not. {Engadget}
Jun 14th 2008 10:18AM OMG I can't believe anyone every want to willingly drive that ugly piece of crap.. The only thing it evokes in me would be the urge to smash into that thing with my SUV just to get the annoying ugly looking thing looking anything better..
Lord of the Rings Trilogy headed to Blu-ray? {Engadget HD}
Jun 1st 2008 10:50AM I really hope they release the extended versions, and make the discs regionfree so we dutchies can also buy it (normally we get versions where the video is compressed a lot more because the have a need to add some dumb dubbed audiotrack on it, or even worse a HD-dubbed audiotrack and a SD-original track)..
Blue Underground goes Blu-ray, announces initial slate of releases {Engadget HD}
Jun 1st 2008 10:39AM Well, Looking at the trailer, it already looks better than the dvdpresentations we got here.. If these discs also come with a low price than I'm all for it.. Let's remember, it was not until the lowbudget dvd-discs became available that dvd became a hit... So hopefully Bluray will get another push with these, cause IMHO >$15 is too much for a movie (especially if you already have a lot of them on dvd)..
