32GB too small for daily work and applications? What do you have installed that takes up more than 32GB? Honestly most of your files (mp3s, videos, etc) can reside on a secondary internal or external drive, while the apps that really need the speed increase can sit on the flash drive. I imagine very few people would need more than 32GB at this point, and from what we've been seeing, 64GB should be right around the corner anyways.
And what about Hydroelectric power? How is that hurting the environment? The water still gets to where it was going in the first place, it merely gets held up in the process. Also, windmills do no more to hamper the wind than any other solid object. Adding windmills on top of hills is hardly going to turn the mid-west into the Sahara... Solar panels on top of houses would merely absorb energy that is normally wasted in heating our roof. Photosynthesis wouldn't be disrupted at all, unless your attaching solar panels to your trees.
Umm... the iPod, innovative? It's just another run-of-the-mill MP3 player that happens to have a good marketing team...
123mph in a Ferrari is pathetic. I took my measly (by comparison) '94 325is up to 135mph in N. California a month ago. Here in Phoenix, the speed limit is 55mph on the I-17, and people regularly drive at 80+mph, even while cops routinely pass them, without a second glance. You'd think that if you could afford a Ferrari, you could afford to drop a couple hundred $'s on a decent radar detector before going out to race your friends.

Even with DRM, people will still continue to download music for free. DRM only serves to restrict those that actually buy music. Those that download music/movies illegally will STILL DO SO in the future, you can count on it, just as you can count on continued terrorist attempts, despite how much people try to stop it.

There's a point where you have to ask whether or not what your doing is preserving freedom, or just taking it all away.
Too little too late Rohit =P

Anyways... this is really starting to concern me... Haven't people learned anything from the movies?
I, for one, welcome our new digitally evolved, plastic overlords...
I'm a male, and in MMORPG's I've only (so far) played male characters, but in offline RPG's I usually play around a 70/30 split between male and female characters, respectively, just to shake things up a bit. In MMORPG's, I tend to give everyone "gifts", not just the female characters; mostly in order to help out people that are new to the game, or who have just been a big help in my party for a long time; things like that.

Although there is the occasional person who tends to hit on the female characters, I think, from what I've noticed, and that has been said above, most people just assume that the vast majority of female characters in MMORPG's are male, and it's a little immature to make it a habit of hitting on people in a game in the first place...
"Kind of Shady in my opinion to say nothing about it."

Did you even read the page? The very first paragraph says why you should send it back...

"It is possible for these batteries to overheat, which could pose a risk of fire."
I've driven the SR20 in Washington (mentioned in a comment above) many a time, and I have to agree, it's a great place to drive. The Pacific Northwest is absolutely gorgeous. I just did a road trip from Phoenix, AZ, to Seatle, WA, to Hamilton, MT, and all the way back again, putting over 5,000 miles on my '94 325is, but it was all worth it, even the $3.50/gal gas. Driving through the California Redwoods on the 101 is absolutely fantastic.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I own an iPhone 3G and I'm looking for a decent speaker / alarm clock for it. I am going to listen music in a mid-sized room, so I want nice quality speakers with solid bass. I also want to use it as an alarm clock, so it would be great if there is such a feature. The price can be low-mid to mid-high range. I was looking at the Klipsch iGroove SXT; it's powerful, slick and the reviews are good, but it doesn't have an alarm clock feature. It's no deal breaker if I can set it up from the iPhone, but I'm not sure. Thanks!"
