First Ride: Trekking Fiat 500 makes SoCal stop {Autoblog}
Aug 4th 2008 2:31PM The plate is valid, otherwise every time a car enters a different country it would have to change its registration! Just because it's a European plate doesn't make it not valid.
Simroid robot lets dental students know what hurts {Engadget}
Nov 28th 2007 5:58PM Fair comment Dave, I did assume that and can only speak from my own experiences in my country (the UK). Still, if you're drilling a tooth *without* anaesthetic then it's going to hurt a LOT whether or not you're close to the nerve, and if it doesn't hurt then that usually means it needs treatment involving the removal of the nerve. So I still think my point stands, a robot telling you 'it hurt' when you're close to the nerve isn't going to help educate you.
Simroid robot lets dental students know what hurts {Engadget}
Nov 28th 2007 4:06PM As a dental student (no, really!) I can say that this is a stupid idea and will not help you learn at all. You don't need it to tell you it 'hurts' when you hit a nerve or are near- if you're that close to a nerve you would have used anaesthetic and if you haven't then it should have been because the patient requested you not to (for whatever reason).
We already have training heads to learn on and for the most part they're realistic enough to teach you enough so that you can treat real patient's. However, every patient is different, they all have different pain thresholds etc and the only way to really learn is through experience.
This is just an unnecessary over-complication of what is already out there doing a good job already.
Did T-Mobile Germany really leak the 3G, 16GB iPhone? Doubtful. {Engadget}
Sep 10th 2007 5:19AM I don't believe this ad is real because it is way overpriced. €500 AND €70 a month for the minutes and texts their offering is rubbish. If you pay that much a month, in Europe you can expect to get at LEAST 500mins 500texts and unlimited data and your handset for free.

Zune: not headed for Europe this year? {Engadget}
Jun 4th 2007 4:20AM That's not even a proper map of the UK... I don't know why England is split up like that...
EA chief: 'biggest battle will be in Europe' {Joystiq}
May 18th 2007 7:33PM This is probably going off the fact that Europe is the biggest market for videogames now, with more people and more money spent on them (although game per person is likely to be a lower)

Metareview: Sonic and the Secret Rings (Wii) {Joystiq}
Feb 22nd 2007 10:17AM Wow JCC, what a great way to determine how good a console is. Good to see a fair and balanced review by you there, and not just your opinion stated as a fact.
PS3 ads turn up in Xbox 360 game (inadvertently) {Joystiq}
Jan 31st 2007 9:23AM Hasn't this happened before? SEGA used to sponsor Arsenal and I'm sure that Sony wouldn't let EA put the SEGA and Dreamcast advertising onto Arsenal's home and away shirts in one of the FIFA games.
