BlackBerry Onyx with optical trackball leaks out {Engadget}
Jul 10th 2009 3:01PM @ Cube:
I don't care about eye candy, I just think that the BB OS is outdated. Hell, just update the browser and I'll be happy. Blackberries are great devices, but using the OS--which is still very good, don't get me wrong--just leaves me wanting more.
BlackBerry Onyx with optical trackball leaks out {Engadget}
Jul 10th 2009 2:21PM This is awesome. Now if only they'd update their operating system...
Sony now including "Green Dam" filtering software on PCs sold in China {Engadget}
Jun 29th 2009 9:02PM Monster cables may suck, but I think we can all agree that the Chinese government sucks the most!
Project Natal video hands-on, impressions, and further details {Engadget}
Jun 3rd 2009 1:53PM Well, Natal has an IR sensor, so that should--ideally--take care of any lighting issues.
Microsoft wants you to share WinMo apps with yourself; others, not so much {Engadget}
May 23rd 2009 2:09PM Now for a segment I like to call "REALLY!?! With Alex Padilla"
Really, Chris Ziegler, you think that Microsoft restricting the usability of purchased software to only the one who ACTUALLY PURCHASED THE SOFTWARE is a bad thing? Really? Do you really think that Microsoft would limit themselves to approximately 1/6 of their potential business with this idea? Really?! And really, you say that this is a travesty, a sham, a mockery, but did you ever once think about the developers who worked on the software? This is really low of you to spin this news negatively like this. Really!!!

MPAA suggests teachers videotape TVs instead of ripping DVDs. Seriously. {Engadget}
May 7th 2009 3:57PM So...hold on. They're saying that you can only "camcord" a movie that you ALREADY PURCHASED because they say so? What happened to ownership?
Final Fantasy XIII producer looking into downloadable demo for the West {Joystiq}
May 6th 2009 2:29PM You know, I really don't care if FFXII requires HDD installs on the Xbox 360. I just want to play the game!
Microsoft's motion-sensing Xbox 360 add-on a result of 3DV acquisition? {Engadget}
May 5th 2009 3:25PM This won't only be used for games. In Engadget's earlier article (the first one) about this, included in the list of functionality was the ability to manipulate objects on screen, scrolling, and etc. What I took from that was the possibility that it will be entirely possible to manipulate the Dashboard simply by using your hand and fingers (a la Iron Man or Minority Report).
Additionally, don't be surprised if they include a Wiimote- or Nunchuck-like add-on to control some basic in-game functions, such as walking or etc, to make it easier for the user control (I don't know how many people are going to want to have to walk around New Vegas in Fallout 4). However, as far as FPSs are concerned, I fully expect to have a Zapper-like gun (though...I suspect it would be something a bit more mature) with face buttons and thumbsticks available at some point so that people can be even more immersed in killing aliens/humans/hookers (yes, humans and hookers are different).
Oh, and in direct relation to the article's title: Isn't the answer obvious?
