iPhone nips at Rebel XTi's heels for most popular cam on Flickr {Engadget}
Aug 18th 2009 8:42AM If you look carefully at that graph, you'll notice that the XSi has almost the same rate of growth as the iPhone, but most constant; the iPhone's growth is fairly flat except for 2 spurts, probably related to product launches. Based on the graph, I expect that shortly after the iPhone overtakes the XTi, we'll see the XSi overtake the iPhone.
VIZIO VBR100 Blu-ray player freed from superstore confines, unboxed on video {Engadget}
Aug 9th 2009 8:56PM Monster probably pays all of these Blu-Ray makers to *not* include a $3 hdmi cable in the box.
Apple confirms and expresses sadness over death of Chinese iPhone prototype handler {Engadget}
Jul 22nd 2009 12:02AM In no way is Apple directly responsible for this. Indirectly, however, the extreme secrecy they try to maintain over their product launches is the catalyst that ultimately led to this event.
1. Apple tries to keep product launches as secret as possible.
2. Intense secrecy leads to a scarcity of information about highly desired Apple products.
3. Scarcity leads to increased demand.
4. Increased demand yields a high dollar value on any information regarding upcoming Apple products.
5. Prototype iPhone "goes missing".
6. Prototype handler is "interrogated".
7. Prototype handler commits suicide as a result of the interrogation.

So, the device will be chewing up the limited number of charge cycles of my gadget? That's even *worse*.
Ask Engadget: Best Bluetooth mouse out there? {Engadget}
Jul 2nd 2009 9:46PM Seconded. The VX Nano is a great mouse. And, there's a reason why there are so few bluetooth mice out there: they suck.
Hulu to PlayStation 3 browsers: "This video is not available on your platform" {Engadget}

More likely it's the same people who tried to block Hulu access through Boxee: the companies with content hosted in Hulu. Clearly, they don't want viewer to be able to watch Hulu content on their big screen TVs. They'd probably much prefer you to watch that content through your cable subscriptions, where they make *alot* more money off ads.

iPhone OS 3.0 beta 4, iTunes 8.2 pre-release now live {Engadget}
Apr 28th 2009 10:49PM Why would you want to get a pre-release of iTunes? The *actual* releases are full of bugs ... I can't imagine how bad a pre-release would be.
