Hitachi's new DZ-BD10H camcorder pairs Blu-ray with a 30GB HDD {Engadget}
Jul 25th 2008 3:27AM Between a noisy optical drive & spinning HDD, this is gonna be one noisy little sum bitch. And guess where all that noise gets recorded to? Your footage.
Solid state is king.
Canon churns out HF11 / HG21 HD camcorders {Engadget}
Jul 22nd 2008 9:55AM Noisy internal HDDs in camcorders can suck it. Thats just on more moving part that you don't need in devices like this, especially since they're more prone to fail than flash memory. Glad I got the HF100.
Panasonic pushes out 14.7MP DMC-FX150 pocket shooter {Engadget}
Jul 22nd 2008 9:47AM 14MP is gettin' kinda ridiculous. What's the point of cramming all that into such a tiny sensor? All it does is increase bloat/file size for nothing.
$179 DXG-567V HD camcorder uploads right to YouTube {Engadget}
Jun 26th 2008 7:58PM "HD" seems to be the new buzzword thats being thrown around for this year, as everyone is using it in improper ways.
For instance on youtube. Since they upped their quality to a measly 480x360, people are like "Whoa, you can really see the HD" & "Damn, I wanna know how I can make my videos appear in HD too. Durrr".
Microsoft promises to support Windows XP until 2014 {Engadget}
Jun 24th 2008 9:40PM I dont think anyone really believes Vista is a total POS, but it does have some pretty major issues. No amount of fanboyism can deny that MS should have made a WAY better product with the time/energy they took making this thing.
So, I will say that Vista isn't total shit, but for a company as big as MS & for the time they took on it, it's mediocre. They know they screwed up, why else keep extending support for XP/talking about Windows 7 THIS soon??
And before you label me, yes I do use a Mac most of the time, but I'll also be the first to tell you that Leopard isn't all that either & Apple dropped the ball on it too (Snow Leopard next year anyone??). Maybe not quite as bad as Vista did by putting all their eggs in one basket & taking for hell & ever to develop it, but its still not great.
Chevy Volt plug-in hybrid priced at $40,000 {Engadget}
Jun 19th 2008 4:35PM GM/Ford do NOT have the resale value of Toyota/Honda has. It's not even close & thats a fact. Reliability is negligible.

Jun 19th 2008 1:45PM Epic fail. This car gets WAY too much press. Leave it to Chevy to produce a damn supped up luxury sports car that no one can afford for their first run at a "mainstream" electric car. God forbid they make something a bit more modest & cost effective for normal people to just get around in.
Detroit, you suck at making cars these days.
MobileMe gets a video tour, and John the Apple guy is your guide {Engadget}

He probably has a wife & kids, unlike your "homophobic, but secretly want nothing more than a big burley man to make me his bitch, which is why I constantly rag on gay people" ignorant ass.
iPhone 3G purchase and activation will be in-store only {Engadget}

How would MAC cosmetics workers know about iPhones??
Sanyo's Xacti HD1010 1080i camcorder shoots 300fps slow-mo {Engadget}
Jun 5th 2008 4:58AM True, megapixels arent everything, but they are still very important. Especially when printing to larger sizes & cropping. Even if an image at 4 MP is better quality as it is, you will run out of pixels more times than not at that size. You cant deal with pixels that aren't there.
