You actually made me WANT to sit in my computer chair and watch all 62 minutes of this.

I was presently surprised how well that went. Like the guy above said, the lighting could use some love. Palm CEO was dark :(

Looking forward to the next one of these.
Me knees went weak and I think I gagged a little bit.

That is easily the scariest thing I've ever seen.
I'm curious when the thing will be so quick it'll pull a bullet out of mid-air.

I hope I'm dead by the time the robots rise up.
You know you didn't read the article text when...
Pretty much. Throw some glowing red eyes and some more speed behind that thing and we're dealing with a living nightmare.
They will support TRIM with a firmware upgrade. The *old* x25-m drives will not be able to flashed to support TRIM.
@a5ehren - Yah looking into it now, but it's a 15% restocking fee plus shipping to the other side of the country. That being said I may break even and get the technology upgrade.

@Entourage - Not taking it harshly, but this new drive came out of the blue and the x25-m just had a price cut in April. As far as buying what you need and impulse... This is technology, you never *need* it, but it makes your life easier. Speeding up my work computer 5x of what it was last week to me is something that made my life easier.

It just sucks to buy something new and get blindsided with something newer/better/CHEAPER than the thing you just bought. I could understand if these drives cost more than the "black" ones, but they are everything better and come in at a lower price point.
@ Ypoknons

Yup I'm screwed. My x25-m isn't even a week old and they say that it's not going to be flashable for TRIM?! Not only that, the new drives are cheaper.

*epic sigh*
Bah, I *just* got an 80GB Intel X25-M last week. I guess no price protection for me :(
@strang why power of 2? I just picked up an 80GB x25-m a couple of days ago. While 460 CDN is a little steep for me, it was easily the BEST performance gain I've ever seen my PC do.

It reminds me of back in the day when you put in 512MB more ram into your 256MB system and saw how fast everything improved.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"For a long time I have been searching for a portable device where I can store all of my CDs in MP3 format and stream the songs wirelessly to my HiFi system. The portable device must I've tried FM transmitters, they all suck. I don't want a docking station. Any help? Thanks!" have a display so that I easily can scroll through the playlists (I don't want to use a TV or monitor). I suppose that there must also be a second device that is connected to the HiFi system that would receive the wireless streams from the portable device.
