Courier new? Gizmodo posts alleged pics and video of MS Tablet

Sep 23rd 2009 9:32AM on The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)

I'm thinking it'll be uncomfortable sitting back and reading from this, and also the hinge probably has to lock (which is difficult to do in a lightweight form factor with two LCD displays to support).

In short, the second screen is cool for the concept but not practical.

I had good luck with another brand that ended up about $80 CDN.
My complaint was that sometime it wouldn't wake properly from sleep.

These things are pretty generic now (you can get them for $56 if you look in the right places, so the only differentiator is the shell. Perhaps you _should've_ dwelt on the shell. That and, oh, the price - which is insane.

I won't be upgrading. Who's to say they won't pull this crap again?

HanDBase for iPhone Giveaway

I'd create an inventory, with a flag next to each item to indicate I'd like to get rid of it because it's just taking up space.

Oh, and a HandDBase database of all my faults, but I'd only add to it, never read it.

HandBrake 0.9.3 adds Universal Input

I don't know the motivation for breaking out the prime bit of functionality. Scared to ship it? The least they could do is automatically download it if they can't find a copy of VLC (mine isn't in the standard location).

That'd replace my aging copy of iview (thanks, again microsoft, for ruining another good product) nicely...

Apple and Rogers falling out?

Folks this is one blogger with a fairly unsubstantiated rumour, who has since clarified his original post.

I wouldn't hold your breath... but it _is_ amusing.

Microsoft working up StartKey Windows companion

I guess the original U3 spec was too OS-agnostic, so they needed to come out with this?

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I commonly need to boot a system from an external disc and take a snapshot of the host system. I also then need to burn a copy of the image to a DVD. While I can do it with two separate external devices, and two power supplies, and two I/O cables, it'd be nice to find a small dual-drive enclosure. It would need to have USB, eSATA, and FireWire. Either slim-line or half-height bay for the optical burner would be fine, and space for either a 2.5- or 3.5-inch hard disc. Any ideas?"
