Hm since the N800 tablet runs Linux it should be no problem to make it a WiMax-Wi-Fi bridge, assuming that the Sprint version doesn't disable the Wi-Fi
Looks like a kit computer from 1978.
I don't know if a 10% bump in fuel economy is going to be enough. Every vehicle with the current VQ35 engine has pathetically uncompetitive fuel economy.
On top of all the other problems with xD (incompatible, limited capacity, slow, expensive), there are no fewer than 3 different types of SD (regular, "M" and "H") that aren't necessarily compatible with each other or the same cameras (there's a whole table over at Fuji's website telling you which type of card can be used in which camera).

Wake up, Fuji, xD is a nightmare, consumers hate it, and not only are there myriad disadvantages, but there is NOT ONE SINGLE ADVANTAGE to it. Admit you're wrong and drop it post haste before you lose any more face (and customers).
Stéphane, the Volvo/Yamaha 4.4L V8 is a 60 degree engine -- the main reason why it's so compact.
I complain about the Nissan VQ engine: yes it's powerful and has an excellent torque curve, but it's pretty gruff and it gets remarkably bad fuel economy no matter what vehicle it's in. Hopefully DC can do better.
NMT, you haven't driven a Volvo or BMW with an iPod connection kit then have you? Because if you had, you would know that they charge the iPod, allow you to control it with the steering wheel/head unit controls, and tuck the iPod nicely in the center console (Volvo) or glovebox (BMW) with no cords strewn across the car (just one cable with a dock connector). And they connect the line level outputs of the iPod directly to the car stereo for superior sound quality.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I just moved into a new apartment and have been reading about all of the new power strips out there, especially the green ones. I was wondering if you had any suggestions about which "green "power strips are out there with decent joules ratings. And when I say green, I mean power strips that have the remotes or switches to turn off all electricity flowing to certain plugs and with at least 2 plugs that are always on. I was looking specifically at sub $50 because I will need two, but if that is not possible I could be convinced otherwise. Thanks!"
