GM: "human error" behind leak of 2011 Chevy Volt pics {Autoblog}
Sep 9th 2008 10:39AM Yeah, I don't really think when the car is about "alternatives" meant it would run off the hopes and dreams of minorities in the US.
GM: "human error" behind leak of 2011 Chevy Volt pics {Autoblog}
Sep 9th 2008 10:34AM Because your shrunken electric Camaro had concept car ergonomics, not usable production dimenensions. Not to mention the probably horrific aerodynamics of the square front end.
Oh, and also, it was a CONCEPT.
At Bat updated to version 1.2 {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Sep 2nd 2008 7:10PM Of course you forget to mention that if you purchase this new as of right now, you would be paying $4.99 for the remainder of the regular season and the playoffs. You would then have to purchase the App again for $4.99 for all of next season. Most people know this, but in case any one thinks they will buy it now and have it forever, just a heads up!

Aug 18th 2008 4:20PM What do you mean "just focus on highway miles" ? They advertise the highway miles because they're always going to be higher, so it looks better, not because they think no one drives in the city.
First iPhone 3G caught in the wild, unboxed and handled {Engadget}
Jul 8th 2008 11:42AM no, there is still the metal bezel on the 3G. It also acts as part of the phone's antenna
DARPA's Vulcan engine combines turbo jet with scramjet, faces will melt {Engadget}
Jun 24th 2008 3:41PM Thank you Benson for saying all of the things I wanted to say but didn't have the patience to type. I love seeing people who know what they're talking about actually chime in here. I took a graduate level gas dynamics class my senior year of college (went for mech. engineering) and our prof. was a 20 yr. retiree of PWA, and worked on nearly every military engine used since the 70's. We ended up learning a lot about supersonic vs sub sonic flow, the transition from each one to the other and nozzle designs. The scramjet idea was something we touched upon in a class or two and it really is pretty cool.

Steve Jobs keynote live from WWDC 2008 {Engadget}
Jun 9th 2008 12:43PM Anybody notice that the shape of the iphone in the iPhone simulator banner is markedly different than the current one. It looks more akin to an iPod touch with a chrome/silver bezel.
Oilman T. Boone Pickens drops $2 billion on wind power {Engadget}
May 20th 2008 12:16PM What's so intrusive about a wind farm in the middle of Nowhere, Texas? It's not like they're going to slap 466 turbines in the middle of a highly populated suburb. Solar, while great, and aside from not being "intrusive" has some drawbacks: Wind turbines work during the day AND night...solar, not so much. Turbines easily adjust to the direction in which they will draw the most energy; tracking systems for solar panels are expensive. There is certainly room for both, but at this point wind is more worthwhile.
3G iPhone revealed in third-party case render? {Engadget}
May 19th 2008 11:16AM Joshua,
We realize the light sensor is there, as well as the proximity sensor, but the difference is how large the opening is and where is is located compared to the old ones. If you go to the xskn page and look at the EXO case for the 1st gen, you'll see that the slot for the sensors is above the ear speaker hole and much smaller. THATS why there might be a camera in there, along with repositioned sensors.
