Poll: Will the DROID have you in its clutches? {Engadget}
Nov 6th 2009 10:53AM Thank god! I hate it when websites about tech compare new tech products to other ones.
Football Hero mod takes Arduino to the Kasabian-approved big leagues (video) {Engadget}
Oct 27th 2009 9:18AM "You see, none of us have ever heard that the rest of the world calls it soccer."
That's obviously not what I meant. Take two:
You see, none of us have ever heard that the rest of the world calls soccer "football."

Oct 27th 2009 9:16AM Thanks for that clarification. None of us were aware. Now, when I'm hanging out in America, and and somebody mentions football, I'll disrupt the conversation and ask if they mean that stupid American version, or the real version. Everyone will probably thank me for being so damn worldly!
You see, none of us have ever heard that the rest of the world calls it soccer. We're all individually to blame for the different terms. Not to mention the metric system. We've never even heard of it.
New Win 7 ads highlight the bright ideas of 'regular people' (video) {Engadget}
Oct 22nd 2009 12:39PM "Isn't the Justin long campaign apple has just in response to how Apple does what Microsoft does, supposedly better?"
Did Windows come out before MacOS? I thought those Macs and Amigas I was using in the mid-80s had mice and Microsoft was still working on making DOS... different, not really better.
And how about the iPod, Apple's response to the Zune? What a bunch of copycats. Next thing you know, they'll come up with something to compete with the Zune HD - the upcoming one with a phone in it.
Rumor: Apple adding FM Radio to the iPhone and iPod touch? {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Oct 14th 2009 11:10AM Part of the joy of having an ipod, and now an iphone, is that I don't NEED to listen to FM radio anymore. I'll take genius lists and podcasts, instead of the 20 minutes of content spread throughout 40 minutes of seriously obnoxious commercials. And the "content" is either music I wouldn't have chosen to listen to, or bad DJ's promoting local events I don't care about.
Sony's VAIO L 1080p all-in-one PC is perfect for rockin' moms (video) {Engadget}
Oct 9th 2009 9:22AM I know! And we have to keep buying these things we don't want! AAAAHHHH!
Or, maybe the people who watch more video than they edit would prefer a resolution in the same aspect ratio as many of the videos they watch. Unless 16:10 is going to become the new 16:9.

Oct 9th 2009 9:19AM Why did somebody get paid to make a video that would be considered lame by late-night commercial standards?
Whoever "wrote" the background music seems to have just discovered sequencers and wanted to make something cool like that "hip hop rap" that the kids these days are listening to.
HTC HD2 gets itself a promo video and a website {Engadget}
Oct 8th 2009 1:32PM Hey wow, they copied the iphone and it might work almost as well! And its homescreen has a weird weather gimmick thing!
Light Peak supplier says mass production to start early 2010 {Engadget}
Oct 8th 2009 1:29PM But he said "fail" in his post! How can you doubt such an eloquent argument?
Light Peak supplier says mass production to start early 2010 {Engadget}
Oct 8th 2009 1:26PM "That in the future, computers will simply have a few (or several) Light Peak ports on them, and NO other ports, whatsoever. Is this the case?"
It's hard to tell what will be successful in the future, but from a purely tech perspective, it is possible that a new connectivity option might become ubiquitous for multiple types of data.
But I think it's worth noting that firewire800 could also handle networking, peripherals, audio, and displays.
