Canon EOS 7D gets high marks all around {Engadget}

Nov 7th 2009 9:58PM Not a Red Scarlet = not interested.
Review of "The Abyss" is not a review of "National Lampoon's Family Vacation" = not interested
Sushi, not hamburger = not interested.

Seriously, what's your point? Congrats on wasting your time and ours writing that comment.

PS3 3.0 / 3.01 firmware update making Blu-ray drive unusable? {Engadget}

Sep 25th 2009 2:41PM Apart from the uselessness of your comment, "should have" was the phrase you were looking for.

Switched On: How Motorola's CLIQ could start to drag {Engadget}

Sep 15th 2009 8:17PM I read it to say that overemphasis on the use of social networking applications as a primary means of communication may unintentionally limit the phone's abilities to the features offered by those networks. Seems like a reasonable concern to me.

Hitachi ships 500GB Travelstar 7K500: 7200RPMs in a 2.5-inch form factor {Engadget}

Sep 1st 2009 9:39AM "Size" could refer to the data capacity, while "form factor" implies physical dimensions/shape/style. It's a different term for a more specific concept.

Aug 19th 2009 1:40PM Who wants 60p? Most of us would rather shoot at 24p, to my knowledge. 60 looks too "camcorder"-ish.

Aug 19th 2009 12:57PM How to decode Canon's numbering scheme. Pick any two cameras and follow each step until the two cameras differ. The better/worse designation at that step will distinguish the two cameras.

1. First, is if a "1"? If so, it's better. Skip to step 5.
2. Does it start with a letter? If so, it's really old and it's worse. Skip to step 4.
3. More digits in main number = worse.
4. Higher numeric value = better.
5. More letters/numbers after the main number = better.

There ya go. Note that this heuristic works only for the official model numbers, not the regional names (Rebel, Kiss, etc.) Can anyone think of a model that doesn't match this heuristic?
