@MowDownJoe The sdk is free for anyone.... its the distribution that isnt free.

Also Android has the same issues as Apple its just there are even more few good apps on the android store. I have a Droid and a iPhone and time and time again the iPhone has better 3rd party support.


in a lot of ways Google creating apps causes the same problems Nintendo has with their first party titles. They are always better then what the 3rd party can produce and most of the time people will flock to Nintendo in this case google for apps.
Just like the 360 and PS3 launch.... We are Sold out!!!!

The Wii is different there were shortages.

But yeah it doesn't make sense for this thing to be sold out... the kindle and the sony reader have a larger base and most people would recommend them before the Nook.
Can anyone really validate this companies claims?

Lenovo at 21% doesn't make sense...

We have a very large pool of Lenovo's and not one has had any hardware failures unless you count the invasion of liquid as hardware failure.

Also being a warranty company is providing this "data" i wouldn't trust it. Also 30,000 is in no way a proper sampling even if this study is real. Hell they don't mention if the laptops are brand new they just say 3 years from the start of ownership and in this case you can't assume its 3 years from buying the laptop from the company directly.

Even
Come on we all know mw2 is an interactive Michael bay film. Which is OK because its a video game.
yeah i carry a droid and an iphone around all the time and lately i keep turning towards my iphone for data related stuff. I knew VZW's network was slow on the 3g/2g side but dam its slower then edge only areas and thats down right sad. AT&T needs to attack them with speeds its been proven AT&T has the fastest 3G network.

How about adding active sync security polices for exchange support... Idiots.

Seriously what phone comes out today without this ability and then claims full Exchange support, its like they don't want to sell this phone to the business sector yet they seem to be gunning for blackberry.
Jobs said he would see us very soon..... i mean its totally possible we will get some new hardware soon.

Hell it could be the event to mask the tablet launch leak that your launching macbooks and macminis imacs on that day and jobs pulls out one more thing for the first time in like 2 years.


You know what's sad? If Apple wasn't helping intel with LightPeak you guys would praise the idea. But since apple is in the mix your automatically bias because your an idiot. Optical technology is the way of the future in computing. Hell even IBM is working on this and they have been for the last several years.

Looks great but the software has shitty flow logic. God dammit I hope thats just something MS is dreaming about. I want a great tablet that allows me to write digitally and type with a virtual keyboard and then allows me to have the freedom to do anything with it. I would love it to be installed with a version of windows so i can easily use vb.net to write some nice little apps without learning some new app to program.
OK this is going to be really fun. Someone create an avatar that looks like kurt in Rock Band 2 and see what type of reaction that gets us. We will then confirm if she is crazy if she responds saying the game needs to be fixed to disallow you from creating a Kurt look a like.

Im sure we already all know she is crazy therefore the idea of this is just amusing, at least to me.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I just moved into a new apartment and have been reading about all of the new power strips out there, especially the green ones. I was wondering if you had any suggestions about which "green "power strips are out there with decent joules ratings. And when I say green, I mean power strips that have the remotes or switches to turn off all electricity flowing to certain plugs and with at least 2 plugs that are always on. I was looking specifically at sub $50 because I will need two, but if that is not possible I could be convinced otherwise. Thanks!"
