YouTube begins streaming 1080p insecurities next week (update: 1080p video!) {Engadget}
Nov 13th 2009 5:55AM Sometimes normal clips load slowly for me on Youtube. The buffer bar barely moves.
And I'm on a 12 megabit connection.
I can't wait for 1080p...

Nov 12th 2009 11:24PM My hand has been resting on my mouse the entire time I was reading this page.
I couldn't imagine going back and forth between a touchscreen and... where do you put your hand?
AT&T responds to Verizon's 3G ad campaign -- by bragging about EDGE {Engadget}
Nov 12th 2009 7:47PM @pureplayan >> "but something NOBODY mentions is that CDMA won't do simultaneous voice and data."
Almost every Blackberry I see that people have for business are on Verizon or Sprint ---> CDMA. They obviously don't miss simultaneous voice and data. Hell, neither do I... I have a Verizon Blackberry Curve.
Since Verizon is the biggest cell phone carrier in the USA... does that meant it's not that big of a problem? Or is it just a talking point when discussing AT&T's "superior" network?

Nov 12th 2009 4:25PM @JayStar >> "Exactly! The iPhone's form factor has remained unchanged since the first gen except the color of the back."
Once Apple reached a big glass screen with one button... where else can it go?
The Storm2 did change the color of the bezel... and the change to 4 electronic sensors behind the screen. But some people question the whole idea of the click-screen anyway.
Apple doesn't change the iPhone much at all... yet it keeps selling. Thoughts?

Nov 12th 2009 4:54AM >> "it ain't as good as the boys hyped it up to be."
... on a netbook... a weak, purposely underpowered, secondary computer.
Windows 7 is great on a *real* computer :)

Nov 11th 2009 4:22PM @trainwrecka >> "XP dead? You must not work around business."
Right... because business users are so concerned with the interface... and NOT the programs they are running for their job...
Do you think the girl behind the counter at the bank cares that her maching is still running Win2000 ?
Blockbuster kiosks to offer movies on SD cards, you some candy as you checkout {Engadget}
Nov 11th 2009 3:38PM @ncalsurfer >> "Redbox - its great, IF you are responsible enough to return them the next day."
Our Redboxes are in grocery stores... places I could get something else at too. It wouldn't necessarily be a wasted trip. I can always get something to eat.
If I drive across town to solely go to a Blockbuster store... that's a wasted trip. Plus, would have paid $5 for the movie rental at Blockbuster!
Besides... you have always had to be responsible for something. Previous video stores had a due date... library books have a due date... your bills have to be paid on time. If anything, I'd rather pay an extra dollar to RedBox because I couldn't drag myself to the grocery store... than be late on some bills.

Nov 11th 2009 3:29PM @Draaaainage! >> "It's actually common in news item titles to separate two items that interact with the first part of the sentence with a comma; usually this is to save space since in the printing biz every giant words is money."
This is true. Although in this case, the simple word "and" would have been better. "Blockbuster kiosks to offer movies on SD cards and some candy as you checkout"
"you some candy as you checkout" is just plain weird.
It's funny though... since the newspaper industry is in such trouble... why are online blogs picking up some of their habits?
