Storm 2 hitting Verizon with 'MiFi capability?'

Oct 18th 2009 10:36PM on Engadget

@Catdogburger, I don't know about you, but I sometimes mistakenly type words, which are more comfortable to type for me, but not physically close in terms of the keyboard. I usually call those typos.

eg. "I have _attacked_ it with this email."

Could it be a typo for wifi?

Lower case "b" stands for bit while upper case "B" stands for byte. In this case, it's lower case, so it's megabit.

You do realize that RIM nailed Iris browser right? So they are probably gonna replace the current craptastic one with a WebKit based one soon enough.

Why's that hand Photoshopped on the picture? (Note the wicked Photoshopped shadow evenly around the hand.) Too cheap to take a picture with a hand on it?

I think it's because of the browser. Although I haven't tried IE8, I don't think desktop browsers zoom "smoothly". They tend to zoom by a constant degree (100% -> 125% -> 150% etc.), which appears laggy. Try hold down ctrl++ on your browser while on a _good_ computer. Appears the same.

It should be half black half white.

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"What's the best gaming laptop for under 1,500 bucks? I had my eye on the P7805u (Gateway), but it seems Best Buy has run out for the time being. Also, as a secondary question, I like the specs on brands such as iBUYPOWER and CyberPower and the like, but are they reliable? I'm a little worried about buying labels that aren't huge like Dell, Gateway, etc. Thanks!"
