Sony Ericsson files patent on haptic gaming device, doesn't call it PSPhone {Engadget}

Mar 7th 2008 1:07PM "It's nice to know that Sony Ericsson is plugging away on making our crazy, dare-to-dream fantasies a reality. The latest proof that someone up there (and by up there, we mean Japan)"

Ummm don't you mean London? After all that's where Sony Ericsson is headquartered...

Sony PFR-V1 WTFones ears-off {Engadget}

Feb 26th 2008 6:12PM Yeah, Ryan before you bitch at least put them on correctly....

Sony launches NV-U2 nav system in Japan {Engadget}

Oct 10th 2007 4:23PM Much more so. Also a much higher percentage of cars there have navi systems.

Mod adds rumble to PSP {Engadget}

Jul 26th 2007 11:01AM Not to mention adding rumble probably isn't the brightest thing in the world when the device is trying to load data off of the optical disc.

PS3 1.82 firmware almost here, bringing H.264 compatibility {Engadget}

Jun 28th 2007 1:14PM "The update (which is already available in Japan) will step up the AVC from Main Profile to High Profile, thus allowing playback of HD content via H.264/MPEG-4 files."

It already allowed HD resolutions, only now you also get High Profile support (which just means you have a broader toolset for encoding AVC/H.264)

Most so-called iPhone alternatives are nothing of the sort {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}

Jun 25th 2007 11:05AM Personally, I think the Sony Ericsson W950 (and upcoming W960) are closer in spirit to the iPhone than any of the handsets mentioned...

Sony Ericsson shoots for style points with W660 {Engadget}

Mar 14th 2007 3:43PM Yes, because we all like using CF cards or USB dongles on our phones...

Rip Blu-Ray movies on a PS3 {PVR Wire}

Dec 1st 2006 1:17PM Plus the ROM Mark probably isn't transfered either, so no player will probably play it (unless you implement your own (which means cracking AACS or figuring a way to get the AACS decrypted stream out as well as circumventing BD+ (if it's used on that disc (it's optional)))).

NVIDIA busting out liquid-cooled GeForce 8800 in November? {Engadget}

Oct 2nd 2006 10:47PM "It will still work great with DX9 and it will be faster than the previous hardware just because of the increase in pipes and clocks, but of course its full features and performance (Unified Shader 4) will only be used by Vista/DX10."

The featureset may also be accessible via gl_nv extensions/new Cg profile as well... Traditionally new features on NV hardware have been accessible on OpenGL while waiting on DX anyways...

Newly resized iTS video content just a bad upsample? {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}

Sep 30th 2006 1:30PM I'd say its the studio/label... I've dealt with labels and they send pre-encoded content and album art, and it's not uncommon for a label to send a song encoded at the wrong bitrate or sending corrupted or incorrect album art...
