Comcast trying to secure in-theater movies for on-demand. For $30-50 each.

May 14th 2007 6:31PM on Engadget

Being a home theater nerd myself I do enjoy watching movies at home however, $30-50 for a single viewing is too pricey for me. I also feel that it is impossible for my crappy apartment to have sound as good as a movie theater and not have angry neighbors. For a man like myself with a $6000 home theater I can't beat a nice DLP theater for picture and audio.

'Hold Your Wee for a Wii' station, employees avoid criminal charges

A liability waiver will release a party from some if not all liability in most circumstances except gross neglegiance. It would be up to the courts to decide where this falls. Basically, liability waivers do not make one exempt from all liability no matter how much some parties wish they did.

Keepin' it real fake, part XLVII: "Offline" Google store

Between the Google and Engadget store I think the Engadget store looked much nicer. This seems to be meerly trading off of the Google name and selling anything where as I believe the Engadget store sold questionable electronics. In all honesty I could totally see Engadget (or Google I guess, but Engadget seems like a better fit) stores existing much like a Sharper Image store or a Discovery Channel store. I can also say that if I was in an airport and there was a layover for a few hours I would visit the engadget store and scoff at the prices as well.

Wave Scanner: bulky DS attachment ups the fun

Nah man, the e-reader is cool and so is this thing. There is rad new stuff for coming out all the time. I am totally glad Animal Crossing prompted me to buy some gizmo for some cards I found at a store a total of 2 times. It is definetly worth the money.

Panasonic's RPTV LIFI bulb lasts so long, it might never need changing

Products have a limited warranty because there is a limited time in which an issue is a manufacturers defect and normal wear/breakdown. Secondly (and more importantly), Panasonic, Sony, Toshiba, etc. are all businesses and are in business to make money. Eating a repair bill in the first year or two is something they do but eventually the warranty runs out and the product is ultimately YOUR product and YOUR responsibility to upkeep/maintain.

UK schools pull the plug on WiFi for alleged health reasons

Correct me if I am wrong but don't routers, cell phones, flourescent lights, (insert electronic product here) output radio waves that are too big to damage cells and possible cause cancer or other harms? It was my understanding that the likelyhood of the radiaton from most of these devices is about as likely as fitting your hand through the eye of a needle.

Black Friday deals

Not to mention there are areas of the US where someone can walk in a store and find these deals and it could be useful for those people. I am not in that boat anymore but personally I like to see what I am missing by keeping my walled stapled to my pants.

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I'm pretty much a complete noob when it comes to camera stuff. My wife loves to take pictures, though. So much so that she literally wore out her first point and shoot camera, and the Kodak Z712 I bought for her less than two years ago is starting to act up as well. To compound the matter, we are expecting our first born sometime next year. I fear the Kodak just isn't going to cut it any longer. What would be the best starter DSLR to get? She hates missing photo opportunities due to camera 'lag' so speed would definitely be at the top of the list. Photo quality and features would be next. Price should be no more than $800. I'm not interested in video capabilities."
