Panasonic unleashes a trio of wide angle, 8 megapixelers: Lumix FX33, FX55, and FZ18

Jul 24th 2007 8:09AM on Engadget

Chris is right, of all the prosumer cameras, Panasonic has the biggest problem with noise, especially at high ISO settings a good 18x camera would be great if they can fix those image quality problems.

New York City to get London-style "surveillance veil"

Jul 9th 2007 6:03PM on Engadget

Note the lack of mentioning face recognition technology which is kind of inevitable and street blocking gates, how long until entire areas are blocked off to free roaming and you need a pass to get into the nicer areas of New York?

Imagine all the roadworks that'll be required to install those gates, New Yorkers are going to LOVE that.

The timing after the failed UK attacks are interesting too...

Big Brother control freak elitism pwns.

When will 12-13" laptops have WXGA 1680x1050??? :(((

Sony Ericsson makes K850, W910, W960, others official

Jun 14th 2007 2:56PM on Engadget

I had my hopes up for the K850 but....

No inbuilt GPS?
Still on ancient QVGA screen?
Only 264k colours not 16million colours?
And of course the Sony memory slot only for overpriced Sony compatible memory which is extortionate compared to micro/miniSD

Oh dear :(

Sony Vaio TZ sports 32GB SSD and 160GB disk -- the best of both worlds

May 17th 2007 4:36AM on Engadget

The 32GB SSD isn't fast though, it's slow, outdone by many other drives check the tomshardware benchmarks for yourself, for battery life of course it's nicer.

This is SSD hype for the sake of it.

Samsung develops 8GB microSD card

May 17th 2007 12:40AM on Engadget

How long until most mobile phones can take 4/8/12/16GB mini and micro SD cards?

They seem to be taking their sweet bloody time about it.

Hello, Galileo: European GPS sat sends first navigation data

May 7th 2007 6:27PM on Engadget

Bear in mind the US threatened to shoot down the satellite to Galileo should it not be turned off upon request if the US is ever at war.

Just a lovely, cuddly, friendly nation is the US no?.....

Creative Zen Vision:M, splayed

Feb 22nd 2006 11:53AM on Engadget

I've wanted a 60GB version of this since it was announced in November `05, but now I want a non-apple version of that touchscreen widescreen ipod... alas I will have wait until next xmas for that, if I'm lucky. Why are apple allowed to hoard and monopolise all new innovation through exclusivity deals?
No competition = slow progress, Apples typical high prices (100% margin on nano's anyone?) and of course no bloody choice!
Will anyone stop Apple's dictatorship of mobile media during the noughties?

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I'm pretty much a complete noob when it comes to camera stuff. My wife loves to take pictures, though. So much so that she literally wore out her first point and shoot camera, and the Kodak Z712 I bought for her less than two years ago is starting to act up as well. To compound the matter, we are expecting our first born sometime next year. I fear the Kodak just isn't going to cut it any longer. What would be the best starter DSLR to get? She hates missing photo opportunities due to camera 'lag' so speed would definitely be at the top of the list. Photo quality and features would be next. Price should be no more than $800. I'm not interested in video capabilities."
