The taxes are a way to try and keep people buying stuff that is made in Brazil... the result is that anything having to do with technology is damn expensive.

Finland unleashes Blobo, the squeezable, all-too-cheerful game controller, on an unsuspecting world

Nov 21st 2009 12:52AM on Engadget

Damn that thing and its commercial are a hot mess. Even the older guy in the commercial was like "kill me now." Man, if people thought the Wiimote was boring, trying running in place with a Blobo in your pocket...

Large Hadron Collider is online, Higgs boson be damned

People will have a twisted view of physics no matter what you do. If you give an average minded person the choice between ridiculous fiction that makes sense to them/they can understand, and a truth that is too complicated for them, they'll always choose the one that makes them feel smarter.

BrailleNote Apex claims to be the thinnest, lightest notetaker for the blind

I had a professor who used one of these. She was so good at using it. The Bluetooth she used to connect a GPS receiver so she knows where she is if needed. Since it has a refreshable braille display she used to read quotes and take attendance with it. It really is a godsend for her. I think she did say that there were some settings her assistant had to set by connecting it to a monitor...

HP to acquire 3Com in $2.7 billion deal

Nov 11th 2009 6:30PM on Engadget

I echo the "3Com, wtf?" statements. I haven't heard anything about them since I was 8 y/o having a nervous breakdown trying to install an ISA network card into our Packard Bell with a 100mhz Pentium. ARgggggggggg...

"I'm in the market for a new phone and money isn't a limitation. I'm also not partial to any particular US carrier, but here are some of the features I'd like to have: WiFi, GPS, good coverage in lots of places, push Gmail (a must!), physical keyboard (a must!), a touchscreen, decent battery life and a relatively slim body. And please, nothing that has a fruit logo on it. No offense to the fruit fans, though. Thanks!"
