Sony streaming Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs free to new customers, expensively to existing ones

Nov 9th 2009 12:33PM on Engadget

$25 for a RENTAL!?!? You can buy the DVD for less than that when it comes out. How stupid do you need to be to waste $25 like that.

Probably, if you were to call their customer service and complain (threaten to cancel your service) they'll give it to you for free anyway. That's the same reason that I have the introductory price on my internet.

Chair-shaped chairs are so last year.

The photo on the left looks a little like it was photoshopped.

Because some people are incredibly stupid when it comes to getting ink.

Is everyone who doesn't instantly embrace any form of technology a Luddite in your eyes? I just want to confirm the form of Web Troll that you are.

Gyrobike's Gyrowheel stabilizes a kid's first bike without the training wheels

That would actually work in the riders favor. With steering a bike, it is done almost entirely with leaning. Except for when I am doing complicated maneuvers in traffic, I doubt that my handlebars go more than 5 degrees in either direction.
The common mistake that new riders do is trying to steer more with their handlebars than with their body.

*Bleep*
You miss the point entirely. People won't really need to learn to ride their bikes when they'll have their gyroscopic wheel to help keep them balanced. They'll just leave it on forever.

Training wheels, when set properly, give children a chance to properly learn to ride a bike. This device does the balancing for them and the occasional scraped knee is just part of childhood. Honestly, we are sterilizing childhood way too much.

This seems kind of lazy. It won't be long before you see grown up versions of this and then no one would really need to learn how to ride a bike again.

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!"
