iPhone 3GS emulates N64, blows minds in the process (Update: is it a fake?)

Dec 8th 2009 9:05AM on Engadget

@Accidental I bought a PS3 controller so I could play 64 on my Mac Mini, but the bluetoothness doesn't work under OS X, and the XP driver makes my (bluetooth) keyboard and mouse stop working. Good luck getting the controller to work on the iPhone!

FedEx Senseaware tracks everything about your package, probably causes OCD

Maybe I'm a bit of a hippie, but... really, people? Really?

I had a vision of a more anal-retentive version of myself, concerned because my new Nokia fashion phone was subjected to .01 too many g-forces, in my ignorant opinion... but, fortunately for the hard-working and under-paid delivery man, I didn't raise hell about it.

iPhone slated for South Korean debut on November 28

Well, good luck getting the quoted prices if you're on an E-2 Visa! I recently looked into the LG Chocolate 21:9 hot:ass phone, and LG Telecom wanted me to pay 920,000 won up front. It didn't matter to them that I'd been a customer for over a year or that I'd renewed my teaching contract. Ouch :-( I'm still making due with my Pantech S340L, without DMB, subway maps, and only one stupid game: Jumping Pop WTF!?! I'll still give KT and the iPhone a try.

In the meantime, at least I have my SNSD "Naengmyeon" ringtone :-)

It could be interesting to put some of these parts into a Holga.

AMEX DIGITAL's Mac mini Blu-ray drive upgrade kit is not what it seems

So their is absolutely no way to play Blu-ray in OS X? I suppose one could at least rip the disc, handbrake it...

LaCie's Network Space 2 will assimilate your data, resistance is futile

"Capped at 1TB"!?! What year is it? 2007? I mean really. REALLY!

A la carte lawsuit against cable companies dismissed

Nov 4th 2009 7:23AM on Engadget HD

RATS!

I wish DirecTV and Dish had offered a la carte at the beginning. They didn't have the technical limitations that original analogue cable had as far as blocking multiple frequency ranges (channels) without causing problems for the desired ones. I assume they had financial or bargaining issues that prevented them (the satellite providers) from doing that, otherwise it would have been a unique selling point.

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I own an iPhone 3G and I'm looking for a decent speaker / alarm clock for it. I am going to listen music in a mid-sized room, so I want nice quality speakers with solid bass. I also want to use it as an alarm clock, so it would be great if there is such a feature. The price can be low-mid to mid-high range. I was looking at the Klipsch iGroove SXT; it's powerful, slick and the reviews are good, but it doesn't have an alarm clock feature. It's no deal breaker if I can set it up from the iPhone, but I'm not sure. Thanks!"
