The 22mph Russian boots that could, but never did {Engadget}
Mar 17th 2007 11:03PM I read the article this afternoon.
the boots were studied and found to require more exertion on the part of the user than if he were to go the same distance without the boots.
thus until the materials changes to make them weigh about 2lbs or less they are not useful.

Intel demonstrates 80-core processor {Engadget}
Feb 11th 2007 8:41PM Take a look at the processors from SunMicrosystems.

Sun Microsystems has their "Niagara" chip with 8 cores executing 4 threads = 32way.
the Niagara2 chip doubles that to 8 cores executing 8 threads = 64way.

the "Victoria Falls" systems are dual processor = up to 128way.
the "Rock" chip due in 2008 will have 16 cores and an undetermined number of threads however expect it to be no less than 8 = at least 128way per chip.
theres a ton more articles about them on http://www.sun.com and on cnet

Cisco might have lost iPhone trademark in '06 {Engadget}
Jan 13th 2007 1:42PM doesnt really matter anymore anyway.
when someone says i most people think Apple.
Jobs had to launch it as the iPHONE because people were already expecting it.
the PEOPLE branded it the iPHONE.
even if they are ordered to stop using the name the PEOPLE will continue to call APPLE's phone the "true iPHONE"
CISCO has already lost.
Cisco sues Apple for trademark infringement: ruh roh! {Engadget}
Jan 10th 2007 7:38PM when someone says - i - my immediate thought is "What cool product did Apple release this time?"
It looks to me like CISCO is trying to sell their CRAPSYS phone by using the marketing power of the "i" prefix.
it is all business anyway. If CISCO has iphone then they MUST file suit to protect it. Just like APPLE MUST file suit to protect ipod.
think of this brands: xerox/kleenex/bandaid/coke
