WTF is with the ridiculous italics in this long-winded, short-on-news article? Sounds like Ben is just trying to show off his knowledge of Exchange server. (Although I've got a hunch he probably just got his info from Wikipedia.)

At any rate, Jobs only said it would only support Exchange if it had IMAP support.

"As important as up to the second email is to business users, we don't see how Apple could afford to leave this feature out."
I'm not so sure the iPhone is being marketed towards business users in the first place. It's not a smartphone, and it's far too media-centric for a corporate phone. Also, I believe I read that businesses won't get discount pricing.

Slow day, Engadget?

"Its active noise reduction reportedly allows you to distinguish between the sound of someone speaking to you and the sound of an aircraft"
Since we humans can already distinguish between these two sounds, would it not be more prudent for the *headphones* to be able to distinguish between them and cancel out the latter?

This isn't a blu-ray burner. It's just a reader.

Just what we've all been waiting for! Oh wait. We already have that. Never mind.

"ReadyBoost-certified" my hugh jass! This is rubbish. Any decent flash drive will work with ReadyBoost already. It doesn't need anything special; just a decent read/write speed. Cheap marketing ploy.

I cried wolf the last time one of these "ReadyBoost-compatible" drives came out. I believe my exact words were: "This is BS. Any USB drive of decent quality will function with ReadyBoost. Shame on you for falling for such a pathetic marketing ploy, Engadget."

Engadget hasn't seemed to pick up on it yet...

Good point, except HSDPA wouldn't allow you to use any provider worldwide. Like Sprint for example. :-)

This thing is gorgeous! But agreed, OQO, please make both CDMA and GSM versions.

I'm failing to see the point of this device... Can someone give me an example of how this is significant and/or useful?

I find it hard to believe any audiophiles will be teased by these. A2DP compresses the audio below CD quality, even on the highest quality setting. Not to mention these speakers are likely inferior quality anyway.

You are the n00b.

"Harsh" is not a verb and "harshed" is not a word... Normally I get onto you kids about blindly choosing words from your thesaurus without regard for connotation, but using nonexistent words is really something else altogether.
