Ooops...didn't mean to include benhc911's reply in mine...
Although benhc911 does mention that you can't represent the true blackness of the panels through using an unknown camera and obviously displaying in on computer monitor that most likely doesn't come close to the contrast ratios these panels have....the picture DOES capture it all at once and the monitor DOES display all the panels together in one picture which will allow anyone to see the differences, EVEN IF THE COLORS AREN'T AS ACCURATE AS THE HUMAN EYE. The "DIFFERENCES" still show through when captured with a camera and displayed on one's computer monitor. It's not like the camera that took the picture is going to bias one TV over another and make the blackness level look blacker on 1 more than the other....(same with your monitor). Before buying one I would still have to see it in person.

well, the other reasons why the blacks are not all that impressive in the picture are the limited abilities of the camera, and of the monitor you are viewing the pictures on... it is hard to represent a 1 000 000:1 ratio on a computer lcd that may only be able to produce 800:1 or maybe 2000:1. That is why i never really understood the point of comparison pictures for tvs, you watch them with your eyes, not through a computer and camera... A comparison only really helps to show physical design, and resolution (if the picture is taken in a sufficiently high resolution, and zoomed in enough to be relevant on our screen.
This reminds me of the "Reactable" used by Björk which is insane!
A full, non-upgrade copy of Windows Vista Ultimate of course (for my friend's computer - not mine!)
The full, non-upgrade Office Ultimate 2007 suite of course!
The definition of "remote" means: distant: apart in space.

What do you need a crank cell phone charger for? If your phone is completely dead and you can't plug it into a regular outlet because the electrical company is for some reason not able to provide electricity... one would also think the cell towers that provide your signals will also be without electricity...LOL!

I guess you just start walking (and cranking) until you find an area with electricity (towers working)...in which then you could've just walked and plugged in your phone!

Plus it's really pretty freakin' ugly!
Radiohead and some house music
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I own an iPhone 3G and I'm looking for a decent speaker / alarm clock for it. I am going to listen music in a mid-sized room, so I want nice quality speakers with solid bass. I also want to use it as an alarm clock, so it would be great if there is such a feature. The price can be low-mid to mid-high range. I was looking at the Klipsch iGroove SXT; it's powerful, slick and the reviews are good, but it doesn't have an alarm clock feature. It's no deal breaker if I can set it up from the iPhone, but I'm not sure. Thanks!"
