iPod shuffle now "world's smallest MP3 player"

I wish the clip part was removable

Samsung shows off 40-inch LED backlit LCD at IFA

I wonder what stopped them from making that LCD have full 1080p like the non-led version. Maybe they figured that combined use of leds and the better panel would have put it out of the budgets of most consumers.

the "read" link should point you to there, but there seems to be a typo in it.

Polymer "muscles" provide full visible color gamut to displays

Aug 21st 2006 12:15PM on Engadget

"researchers are currently working on ways to limit the pixels to visible parts of the light spectrum"

Don't do that, vidoephiles will want the full spectrum, even if you can't see it, saying things like, "The uv and infrared light makes the video 'feel' more realistic", then you just need to stick some vacuum tubes in it to make it output a "smoother" specture.

EIZO unveils 22.2-inch ColorEdge CG221 pro LCD display

More likely, they just aren't giving you embellished numbers like the non-pro displays do

Philips shows off new 17DC 17-inch LCD

Nothing impressive at all about this, 1280x1024 has been the standard resolution for years. The only thing that might be something special is what it is showing, according to Wikipedia, MGS4 is coming out exclusively for PS3, so maybe it has an HDMI input. Now if this display could actually show the full 1080p that the PS3 can output, that would be news-worthy.

Wii for November under $250, and it "won't have hidden fees or costs"

Aug 16th 2006 9:41AM on Engadget

I want to know how much we should expect for extra Wiimotes, there is a lot of technlogy in that little stick. And, can we expect third-party versions of it to help bring the price down? I expect to see it for over $60, thats quite a bit of dough if you want to have 4 player fun.

AMD turns out slew of Opterons

"Err... that's virtualization, not visualization..."

Damn I was hoping I could have Milkdrop do awesome effects while I was Folding.

No POD for you: Apple keeps close tabs on brand name

I guess the only thing they learned from being sued by Apple Corps was not to be the little guy.

Jerks

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I just switched to Sprint from Verizon about three months ago for the Pre. Then I went for the Hero about a week ago. Now, I miss my hardware keyboard and am thinking about switching to the Moment. I am still able to switch back to Verizon if I want and get the Droid when it arrives. Should I just trade up to the Moment when it comes out, see if I like it, and if not switch to the Droid? Or something else entirely? Help!"
