New ThinkPad keyboard features crowdsourced design, lower price {Engadget}
Sep 6th 2009 12:28PM @Pingles: Here are my two reasons:
1) Generally wireless keyboards from Microsoft (my KB vendor of choice) don't have the scroll/numlock buttons visible- you have to look at the wireless base (if possible) and by that time you may as well have a cord.
2) Functionally a wireless keyboard is no different than a wired keyboard- so how can I justify the batteries and environmental cost? At least with a mouse (since it moves) having no chords makes it easier to move on the desktop.

Jun 25th 2009 10:01AM Newer MS mice don't have a clicking feature on their wheels these days- a bit awkward for the first couple hours but I came to like it.
I agree that some, especially cheaper, mice have outrageous loud click-wheels which can be irritating in a sea of cubicles.
Tesla founder sues Tesla, Elon Musk {Engadget}
Jun 11th 2009 2:08PM Silicon Valley - these are $100k+ cars- you're not going to see them everywhere, but there are really quite a few running around in the SF Bay Area. My guess would be the intersection of people with a lot of money and the social appeal of fast and "environmentally" friendly.

Jun 11th 2009 1:24PM Get what to market? Their cars? Which one, because I don't know where you live but I see the Tesla roadster pretty frequently- at least once a week.
