SYNC! That makes sense.

Was Bono talking on a Blackberry? They didn't get the product placement 100%.
Oddly enough, I think that little tidbit about his car is genuine.
That was excellent! Terrific self deprecating humor! (It's Billy G.)

I heard that he drove a Honda Accord. Was that a new Ford Focus? Wow.
That's what I want to know!
Peter,

That link shows the Slingbox Pro, not the Slingbox Pro HD.
Like so many others, I don't care who wins. I'm a consumer fanboy.

The advent of the upconverting DVD player, and my anger toward both sides in this format war have helped me decide to boycott both formats.

When (if) ALL studios get behind one or the other, then my boycott ends.
"Tablets - innovative?" I type on my 4 year old HP Tablet...
...or maybe I meant they can try to pry the "cold, dead bulbs from my warm, living hands."

One of those...
I totally agree. I went through our house to replace incandescents with CF's but there were only two rooms where the light I use isn't on a dimmer. Even my front exterior lights are on a dimmer. (It's a very attractive effect, by the way, especially when your near a city street light and don't need bright lights in your yard.)

Anyway, they can have my incandescent bulbs when they pry them from my cold, dead hands, or perhaps when they come out with CF's or other "approved" bulbs that work on my existing dimmer switches, and emit warm light.
Time keeps on slippin' slippin' slippin'...
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I commonly need to boot a system from an external disc and take a snapshot of the host system. I also then need to burn a copy of the image to a DVD. While I can do it with two separate external devices, and two power supplies, and two I/O cables, it'd be nice to find a small dual-drive enclosure. It would need to have USB, eSATA, and FireWire. Either slim-line or half-height bay for the optical burner would be fine, and space for either a 2.5- or 3.5-inch hard disc. Any ideas?"
