Sprint's big surprise to be unlimited mobile calling, data, text, and MMS for $70 (update: official) {Engadget}
Sep 10th 2009 12:43AM People don't seem to be reading the headline properly. They are not turning Simply Everything into a $70 a month plan, they are allowing everyone on an Everything Data plan to have unlimited mobile to mobile calling. Fortunately for most people this can be close to unlimited calls but it's still not technically unlimited anytime minutes. Still, even the regular price of 70 dollars (which can be dropped down to 60 on everything plus) is amazing for a deal like this. For the money you can not do better than Sprint in the United States - and now they actually have a good phone selection with the Pre, Pixie, Hero, and Galaxy. Unless you crave an iphone or live in a rural area with bad Sprint coverage there is no reason to be on another carrier. I think we are nearing the point with cell phone carriers in this country going to unlimited anytime minutes because at this point less people are making phone calls for trivial things that can be accomplished with text messages and email. Eventually the big thing will be who has the better and faster 4G coverage.
Ion-based Acer Hornet nettop specs leak out: 1080p HDMI playback, Wii-like gaming, $299 {Engadget}
Mar 31st 2009 11:27PM A Dual Core Atom is more than enough to run 1080p video with a Geforce 9400. XBMC will support Nvidia GPU decoding in the next stable release this April. $150 dollars to playback every video file imaginable sounds very appealing to me.
Buffalo's wireless injunction stayed, now free to sell WiFi products in US {Engadget}
Dec 4th 2008 7:19PM Yay, Buffalo routers combined with a custom firmware made for some affordable and remarkably stable consumer level routers. Would someone please tell the author of Tomato we want Wireless N support?
NVIDIA dropping 790i mobo, quitting chipset business? {Engadget}
Aug 1st 2008 2:43PM Nvidia chipsets stink. It would be nice if this article was from a reputable source but unfortunately it's the inquirer. Exxxtreeeme Gamer's buy Nvidia boards because they think it will increase their FPS or some bullshit. In reality they get BSODs and weekly bios updates.
If you like buggy unstable chipset drivers then let me recommend any Nforce based chipset. Otherwise stick with Intel. If you have AMD I don't know what to recommend.
BTW I use Nvidia video cards.

CompUSA rises from dead, attacks Florida {Engadget}
Apr 24th 2008 9:09PM It's about 10 times better than it was before, since it's basically Tigerdirect in a retail establishment. Also some stores have been open for two months now.
Creative halts unauthorized distribution of homegrown Vista drivers {Engadget}
Mar 29th 2008 5:39PM Their drivers are crap in XP, and even worse in Vista. It's amazing that one guy can do better than an entire company.
Stop buying overpriced consumer grade sound cards to "game" on your 20 dollar Dell speakers.

Oprah Winfrey gets her own channel, will simulcast in HD {Engadget HD}
Jan 16th 2008 1:44AM Probably because her show is awful and appeals to annoying fat housewives who need some fat bitch to tell them how to think.

Jan 14th 2008 4:38PM Yeah because Alienware is known for it's well designed thin and light notebooks.
