EU's new EGNOS GPS system goes active

Oct 5th 2009 3:18AM on Engadget

Don't forget, GPS in North America can also use WASS to get that kind of accuracy. Well, not necessarily 6 feet but very close. Most modern receivers use the WASS data to improve accuracy.

I just checked again and now it's showing 15,000 total parties.....Was I hallucinating last night?

Microsoft handing out Windows 7 Launch Party host confirmations

Sep 22nd 2009 2:45PM on Engadget

If you look at the list of parties, it looks like there are more than 160,000 confirmed Windows 7 House Party hosts.

That's a lot of parties!

Why low rank for WinMo haters?

I just quit WinMo for good. Wouldn't go back if you paid me.

Of course the demo looks good but I predict it's going to start dragging just as soon as you install some apps and start using them.

How would you change Olympus' E-P1?

I believe it's an xkcd reference. It's sort of a way to blow someone off and make fun of them at the same time.

NEC keeps standard-aspect ratio LCDs alive with MultiSync EA190M

Sep 2nd 2009 9:40PM on Engadget

If you like "standard" aspect ratio screens, check out the HP LP1965. Best 19" monitor around for the price. I'm currently running two of them on Ergotron arms. Best setup I've ever had.

RIM's BlackBerry Curve 8900 officially hitting AT&T in "early summer"

May 4th 2009 2:10PM on Engadget

I think RIM was going for extra battery life when they left out 3G.

RIM's BlackBerry Curve 8900 hitting AT&T next month?

May 3rd 2009 1:08PM on Engadget

It's actually quite a bit thinner than the old curve.

Also, I think leaving out 3g was a decision made to increase battery life which at 15 days of standby, is considerably better than the bold. And with the addition of wifi, you rarely miss having 3g.

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I am trying to configure out a really dumbed down and intuitive PC for my grandmother. She recently had a stroke and while she is under my care I would like to repurpose a laptop for her to surf and email her children. Anyone have any experience with what input devices and UI's are really understandable for the over 80 crowd?"
