What I don't get, though, is the whining about the font. I mean, people aren't sending mass complaints to newspapers about their serif font yet they read it every day. People don't seem to have difficulties reading the newspaper, so what's the difference?

Yup, Nokia's dominant in almost every country except the US. In my opinion, Nokia being unsuccessful in the US does not mean that they are not being innovative. They might lack a little for the most users here on Engadget, but for the business and common user they're great. Easy to use, straightforward, things that are important in today's market. My mom and dad for example are simply never going to be able to understand a WinMo or Blackberry device, hence they're using Nokia phones. People often forget that more (features in this case) is not always better. Keeping it simple is the way to go to address the largest amount of users, and Nokia's doing exactly that.

Hmm, yeah you're right. I remember my German teacher saying stuff like that so that's why I posted without checking. He was probably joking.. Now that I'm looking it up it turns out that it has been used much longer indeed. Sorry.
What a stupid name - SS USB. Probably won't be much appreciated by the Germans I suppose. Because of World War II they don't even use "ss" in common words, they use ß instead.. ß USB.. Yeah.
Death to italics, serif fonts AND Internet Explorer!!
I liked it as well, Josh trying to scrape off every single bit of information from Steve Ballmer was very cool to watch.

About the music: it is pretty different but I must say it sounds quite cool. It's probably very difficult to make such awkward 8-bit sounds work in a way that they represent a nice song/tune (the show's intro for example is awesome in my opinion).
I'd rather have Chrome OS on my "fat" PS3 with Linux option.
It's very, very awesome indeed.

The PS3 is doing a pretty good job holding off hackers though. It's been hack-free since the day it was launched and it seems like it will be for a long time (unless you believe the hundreds of fake "PS3 custom firmware" vids on YouTube, those have been around for ages now).
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I am looking for a device that will stream sound from one source to several recipients. For example, I want to stream sound from my TV or stereo to my phone or MP3 player that has radio and Bluetooth capabilities. I have looked into radio transmitters and they seem like a decent choice, but I can't find one that uses external power (USB or from the plug) and I would want one with a transmit range of around 50 meters. Thanks!"
