They totally take their names from IKEA's discard pile.

Video: The Shimano Di2 electric bike shifter for the paradoxically lazy

Mar 17th 2009 7:49AM on Engadget

No, it's not an automatic transmission. There's other, non-electronic systems that can handle that. (Whatever system is on the Trek Lime -- my sleep-addled brain isn't letting me remember the name.)

Video: The Shimano Di2 electric bike shifter for the paradoxically lazy

Actually Mavic tried it twice -- with its Zap and Mektronic groups. Neither of them caught on because they were flaky as hell and only included shifting for the rear derailleur. I really wanted to hate Di2 -- a lot -- and rode it at the Frostbike tradeshow in February. The short review is that I'm sold on it.

Apple blocks streaming South Park app

OH NOES. There's also a lot of potentially offensive content on the Internet -- better strip Safari off the phone, too! Man, I love Apple products, but the people running the show can be pretty obtuse at times.

WowWee mixes it up at CES: Cinemin pico PJ, new Alive Cubs and more

They can't complete the project until the lightsabers are out of R&D. Can't have raptors without lightsabers.

Sacramento cops seek game store robbers

Have you been in any stores lately? Nobody has a shortage of GH:WT. I'd be willing to bet that even Bath and Bodyworks has them in stock.

Ooh! Pick me! My WRX has been acting a little finicky lately!

Cracks 'appearing' in new iPhone 3Gs

Jul 31st 2008 8:02AM on The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)

Yeah, I'm going through the same mess -- treating this thing with kid gloves and it's still got cracks in the shell.

Activision plans to launch iTunes alternative

Jul 11th 2008 11:09AM on Joystiq Playstation

Yeah, because you know other large companies like Sony have tried to take on iTunes and done so well at it.

Activision is making the same damn mistakes that Microsoft did before them -- trying everything they can think of. "Let's throw all this s**t at the wall and see what sticks!"

And that's just a dumb way of doing business.

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I love my little computing companion but I often find myself missing a full sized keyboard. I have been looking at several of these portable and flexible keyboards, but I can't seem to make up my mind about which I should buy. I don't want the keyboard to be overly expensive, but I want it to be good quality. Also, how difficult is it to type on these keyboards? Thanks!"
