IMPOSSIBLE's on a mission to revive Polaroid film

Jan 19th 2009 4:02PM on Engadget

For Polaroid enthusiasts out there, important to note they will NOT be making the pack film, pull-apart cool kind of Polaroid. They WILL be making the shake it like a Polaroid picture film.

And yes I know you really shouldn't shake it.

Canon PowerShot G10 reviewed

Oct 27th 2008 2:26PM on Engadget

Sez "It's actually everything; these cameras are unusable in anything other than a brightly-lit environment."

You'll note it has a hotshoe. Every environment is potentially a well-lit environment with some strobist goodness.

Wow, this overpriced overdue standalone guitar TOTALLY makes up for the fact that they're not going to have downloadable songs for the Wii.

Dec 19th 2007 8:28PM on Engadget

I'm sorry there are release notes but we can't see them? We can count them but we can't list them?

Camera-equipped buses could automatically ticket San Franciscans

Sep 12th 2007 6:20PM on Engadget

Come to think of it, this is such a narrow view of what cameras on municipal busses could do.

Imagine Google street-view stuff... only updated hourly?

At the very least, you could make the cameras side-mounted and capture every illegally parked car on the bus route.

NFL and DirecTV partner on streaming games

Aug 29th 2007 8:27PM on Engadget

They have to charge so much to make up the profits from all the people who can't get DirecTV.. e.g. me. If you artifically cut your demand in half, you have to jack up your margins to make the money.

MOTO techs out NFL coaches with RAZR-inspired headsets

Aug 10th 2007 11:52AM on Engadget

I wonder if any of this "new technology" addresses the NFL coaches' paranoia that causes them to hold their playcard up infront of their mouth when they talk into the damn things. I know they're worried about lip readers with spotting scopes... c'mon Motorola. Fix a real problem here - verbal cloaking device!

The obligatory "Yeah, but can it run AmigaOS?" post. Wake me up when it Kickstarts to Workbench...

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I'm heading to university next year, and I've purchased a MacBook. I'm also taking my four year old desktop, just in case I'm left with no computers when the MacBook is being repaired or whatnot.
