Google gifting free airport WiFi for the holidays {Engadget}
Nov 10th 2009 10:55AM Clearly Google is evil because you already had free WIFI at your local airport.

Nov 10th 2009 10:34AM Design a computer this size that still has an optical drive, doesn't fall over when bumped (like Dell's last mini computer), and doesn't have a vaguely similar shape to a mac mini. Go ahead. Do it.
Just because Mac implemented the most pratical/logical form factor for the mini doesn't mean others are copying them by coming to the same conclusions.
On another note, Tesla copied GM by having four wheels and a driver's seat that faces forward. THOSE SCOUNDRALS!

Nov 2nd 2009 10:48AM This was the best thing about my Sennheisers. I went through two sets of cables (or more accurately, my dog did), and paying $25 each time was a lot easier than the $100+ for a new set of cans.

Oct 29th 2009 11:35AM In fairness, is it really "breaking" if it's been scheduled for months?
Awesome news? Yes.
Breaking? Not so much.

Dell Inspiron 13z goes on sale in Australia {Engadget}
Oct 22nd 2009 11:45AM yem, I think you're thinking of the Studio 13. The now discontinued XPS1330 was 4lbs, same as this thing, and possibly even thinner than this thing.
Dell Inspiron 13z goes on sale in Australia {Engadget}
Oct 22nd 2009 11:19AM So I used to be able to get a screaming fast Dell XPS1330 that was the same size, same weight, similar specs, and had a much faster processor for about $1000 CAD. Now I can get this with a seriously weak 1.3GHz C2D and crappy Intel video for about the same amount of cash. What am I missing that makes this reasonable in any way?
CRTC sets net neutrality rules for Canada, allows throttling as 'last resort' {Engadget}
Oct 21st 2009 3:43PM I nominate T+P to take over from the CRTC. They're clearly smarter and have the best interest of all Canadians at heart. That being said, my coffee mug is smarter than the CRTC.
CRTC sets net neutrality rules for Canada, allows throttling as 'last resort' {Engadget}
Oct 21st 2009 3:30PM From what I have been able to pick up so far essentially Bell will throttle your connection (and mine to as a fellow Teksavvy customer and proud of it). You lodge a complaint and the CRTC forces Bell to justify, in writing, its actions. In other words, the big ISPs can't freely throttle any more, they have to write a cute letter to the CRTC making an excuse for it, then throttle our sorry asses to death.
The next question is: will the CRTC ever side in the best interests of consumers? For that matter, does the CRTC even understand the technologies they regulate?
I don't think I'd like the answers to either of those...
