Wistron: Readius-like ereader with pull-out flexible display launching in 2010 {Engadget}
Nov 12th 2009 10:25AM I love that it's got Harry Potter on it. Which isn't available in a legal eFormat, as far as I'm aware.
No DRM on this baby!
How would you change Microsoft's Zune HD? {Engadget}
Oct 10th 2009 9:32AM Create a small "USB Mass Storage" partition. Allow a user to copy media into that. Have th zune scan it for media and add it to the internal database and allow you to play it. When you get home, that media gets added into your permanent collection
I HATE not being able to add a few MP#s to my collection except fro one stinking computer.
Let me have internet integration with the Zune marketplace like the 360 does. Let me pick and subscribe to podcasts and other items; let the Zune slurp those down over WiFi.
Let me browse he internet and subscribe to Podcasts directly from the browser!

HP Vivienne Tam Edition Mini 1000 hands-on {Engadget}
Jan 8th 2009 5:18PM All the Mini 1000s look like that- I'm glad to see they haven't fixed it on the upper end version. :)
I noticed it on mine, and then stumbled across a forum where many people were lamenting the same thing.
So it's not just a prototype issue either...
It's definitely one of those things that once you notice it, it bugs the hell out of you. But functionally, it doesn't appear to have any impact. The folding doesn't seem off or anything.

Dyson looking to motor into the electric car arena? {Engadget}
Jun 25th 2008 10:28AM What I don't understand is that the motors in Dyson Vaccums are just Panasonic motors. Not Dyson engineered motors, just OEM sourced motors. It's not like the gimmic of the Dyson revolves solely around the motor.
And I have recently become a Dyson convert. Iwas perfectly happy with my Sanitaire industrial chrome vaccum- until I ran the Dyson over a floor I'd just finished vacuuming. The amount of dust it pulled out was truly astonishing.
Ralph Baer crushes Utrecht, the Netherlands mayor at Pong {Joystiq}
Jun 19th 2008 2:15PM Baer likely pulled out a trick that the original brown box had that most people aren't used to- you can control the ball with an additional paddle that's on the side of the box. YOu can make it swerve up and down ridiculously.
I played a game vs. Ralph in front of a crowd about 10 years ago- IT was a sedate first serve, then once I settled in, he whipped out this ridiculous english and swerved right around me. It played for a good laugh in the room as my jaw dropped.
Then I figured it out and schooled the third shot right around him and he quickly closed up the demo and moved on to rest of his presentation.
Good demo, great guy. (And I got to play vs. Ralph on the original brown box, how FRIGGIN AWESOME is that?)
