Please hammer, don't hurt Samsung's flexible OLED prototype (video) {Engadget}

How long they last is not as important as the half-life of the intensity.
Even if the blue still works, how long till it's at half brightness? How long till it's *noticeably* out of calibration? It /is/ a good thing that our eyes aren't as sensitive to blue as other colors, but that doesn't we won't perceive the color distortion at all. The only way to compensate is by lowering the intensity of the other colors, balancing them to the lowest common denominator.

WSJ: Barnes & Noble planning its own touchscreen ebook reader {Engadget}

Oct 8th 2009 5:12PM I would gladly sacrifice compatibility and interoperability for some more competition in the e-book marketplace.

Razer refreshed DeathAdder gaming mouse is more accurate, still hates southpaws {Engadget}

Sep 25th 2009 3:53PM I'm a lefty and I play all computer games with my mouse in my left hand. I used to buy exclusively razer stuff since they made the best ambidextrous mice. Unfortunately, their best stuff is now in the righty only club. I'm feeling a bit left out. :(
I'm thinking about switching to Logitech stuff since they actually make a left handed mouse.

Lucid HYDRA multi-GPU technology bears fruit, could bring peace to the GPU wars {Engadget}

Sep 23rd 2009 11:53AM I'm curious how this thing deals with multi-pass effects. It either duplicates the scene rendering, starts passing buffers around, or breaks the visual effect.

Razer Naga MMO mouse (and Megasoma mat) unboxing and hands-on {Engadget}

Sep 18th 2009 5:56PM I'm another left handed gamer. I hope they figure out their past success has been because us lefties have been buying their products.

LG W63 enters gaming monitor arena, claims to be the best {Engadget}

Sep 3rd 2009 9:05PM OLED = poop
OLED monitors have a half-life on the brightness that is somewhere around 3 years for the blues. I don't like the idea of having to buy a new monitor every year or so to get balanced colors. A high dollar item like that should last longer.

Book scanning gets a 1,000 fps turbo mode {Engadget}

Aug 14th 2009 2:43PM What about chopping the spine off and putting the pages in a tray loading scanner?

Prototype OCZ Z-Drive PCI-Express SSD splayed, scoped out {Engadget}

May 18th 2009 10:59AM It wouldn't be the same thing as RAID because they are neither inexpensive or independent. They're not even disks. They could make them behave like a RAID and sell it as a feature, but they probably won't since the cost to benefit ratio is probably low for them.

@Jon
No, they're not fast enough, nothing is ever fast enough.
No, flash drives have a limited life span and can die just like any other electronic component.

AMD busts out world's first air-cooled 1GHz GPU {Engadget}

May 13th 2009 2:00PM I wish you were joking. My 8800GTS(G92) is like a small space heater, but it doesn't put out nearly as much heat as many of these newer cards.
