Pat Says Now talks of "world's most expensive mouse" {Engadget}
Jan 22nd 2007 1:41PM This is why I constantly scan for other gadget blogs.
This whole cool with the scene, bling bling thing is dull. Gadgets, not jewelry, thanks.
Some iPhone touchscreen roots 'splained by FingerWorks inventors {Engadget}
Jan 22nd 2007 1:37PM Ok, these two nerdy looking guys are using a Sun computer, running Windows, to develop an interface for an Apple only system for stylish people.
Now if only Jobs could think in such an open way (viz his comments about running the open, cross platform java me on the iphone).
Sharp, Danger prepping low-end Hiptop? {Engadget}
Jan 20th 2007 10:26AM Ugh. I know what this is for. In Canada at least it's impossible to get flat rate Internet (on GSM networks). Instead they want to sell "unlimited limited" access - all the Blueberry access you can use, all the MSN messaging you can use, all the Hiptop you can use. This way, they can partially satisfy the customer (especially the addictive messaging ones) and not provide real Internet, which might lead us to, heaven forbid, VOIP. If the device has no Bluetooth or other nasty ways to share data, even better for the uncompetitive Canadian carriers.

Live from Macworld 2007: Steve Jobs keynote {Engadget}
Jan 9th 2007 1:44PM I've been using a touch screen with fingernail for years. Just curl your finger around so you are using the soft back of your index fingernail. Works great.

Philips SoundBar HTS8100 to simulate surround sound in one speaker {Engadget}
Jan 8th 2007 11:10AM Yes, we know. No one is claiming it is as good as a real 5.1 setup. It's a simulation for people who don't want 5.1 speakers. The reviews of the Yamaha, Polk and other solutions say they work well for what they are, with limitations. Big surprise. Anyway, thank for defending those helpless consumers who might have had compromised sound!

Jan 7th 2007 2:41PM You know, I was about to say, spare us the schmaltz with the opening and closing segments (intro and outro?) but then I noticed... are you using a Severed Heads tune?

BenQ's in a business projector foursome: MP721, MP721C, MP611, and MP611C {Engadget}
Jan 5th 2007 12:44PM RELATIVELY quiet 25db? Once again, Engadget displays its ignorance. Very few projectors, even the highest end home theatre models, pretend to have such a low noise level. I wouldn't believe it for a second. What Engadget should be saying is that as a low cost DLP based projector, it probably has lousy colour reproduction, with a ghoulish cast to everything, and a low speed wheel for "rainbow effect" galore, and is therefore totally unsuitable as a home theatre/entertainment projector.
