Yes, that is exactly what it means. 5GB capped.

Rumor mill: Nikon VP650 camera / projector combo soon to be revealed

Aug 3rd 2009 12:28AM on Engadget

How about Nikon makes a nice coolpix with a big sensor? How about they start a new line a la Olympus E-P1? How about they come with the fabled MX sensor? How about they update and refresh all the lenses that need it?

Nah, let's make a great projector cam.

Your uncle? OK then.

Craigslist says it's unfairly targeted -- and it's right

Amen to that. We the people love CL and use it all the time. That's why the big companies who see it as a competitor will do anything to stop it. So the politicos and lawyers are working for their brownie points.

Panasonic DMC-GH1 handled on video, coming to North America in May

The main thing I see is that the camera plus lens combo is not that small after all. The Oly 420/450 with the 50mm pancake might be smaller and thus more pocketable but the GH1 definitely is not. I would love to have a smaller camera to always carry around without sacrificing lens and picture quality. But small enough in that sense means like the DP2 or the G10 not the GH1 with that honking piece of glass.

eBay not so popular these days?

Nov 27th 2008 12:34PM on BloggingStocks

eBay? Are you kidding me now? They are dead and they don't know it yet. A bunch of fools. They managed to alienate everyone who loved the site and made it great. They went from grassroots to blind corporate idiots. And their next target will be how to destroy what we love now: graigslist.

I'm not giving up on eBay, yet

They took a great business and destroyed it. It is just taking forever for the message to travel from their feet to their brain but eventually it will.

Microsoft is sweetening its bid for Yahoo! -- um, why?

What on earth are you talking about?

U.S. home prices fall a record 12.7% in past year, according to Case-Shiller

I think that we can solve this problem by requiring all illegal aliens already in the US to buy a 100K+ house in order to get a green card. Two birds with one stone.

eBay sues craigslist: Takeover move next

Apr 23rd 2008 9:13AM on BloggingStocks

EBay is not "becoming" bad, it has been bad for a long while now. They are now big enough that they do not give a damn about what we the users say or do. And a bunch of us have turned to CL to get away from EBay, they go after CL. The natural order of things for business. Just horrible for us and I do not know one thing we can do.

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I commonly need to boot a system from an external disc and take a snapshot of the host system. I also then need to burn a copy of the image to a DVD. While I can do it with two separate external devices, and two power supplies, and two I/O cables, it'd be nice to find a small dual-drive enclosure. It would need to have USB, eSATA, and FireWire. Either slim-line or half-height bay for the optical burner would be fine, and space for either a 2.5- or 3.5-inch hard disc. Any ideas?"
