Microsoft job posting hints at cross-platform Zune environment? {Engadget}
Sep 6th 2008 12:12PM It used to be officially printed on Microsoft's Zune site. If you have a Mac, you dual boot. The only reason that Apple supported Windows is because Windows has the majority. They weren't doing anyone a favor.
Sprint's HTC Touch Diamond: September 14 for $249.99. Honest. {Engadget}

Ha ha ha! Took me a second to figure out what you did there...

Sep 5th 2008 11:52PM I'm on SERO and I was checking out this issue the other day. This is what I've found:

From my understanding, PDA's and Smartphones won't be affected by the new changes. I'm guessing that they did this with the Instinct because they lowered the handset price and recovered the money on the Everything plan.

Sep 5th 2008 11:32PM I bought the Mogul when it first came out and all of us early adopters had a rough ride with that one too... It took about 6 months for Sprint to work out a decent ROM; we had a lot of roaming and Bluetooth issues. If it makes you feel better, you might be able to get them to switch out phones. A lot of people were able to trade in their Moguls for Touches months after the 30 day period was over. I had a weird issue with my phone and it took a lot of convincing just to have Sprint warranty it out.
I really want the Touch Pro but, I'm going to wait until the first ROM update comes out.
Poll: Is Microsoft's new ad working? {Engadget}
Sep 5th 2008 10:02PM @Zeus.:God:
Just ignore him. He obviously goes into non-Apple articles to troll so he can link to that crappy site that he's affiliated with; it's the only way that he can get people to see it. The mods should ban him...

Sep 5th 2008 7:37PM WOW, you're ignorant.
Let me enlighten you with a direct quote from Microsoft's Auto Divison site.
"Carmakers and suppliers around the globe have based their automotive infotainment solutions on Microsoft’s platforms. Drivers and passengers can now experience Microsoft Auto or Windows Automotive technology in over 150 preinstalled and aftermarket devices from 18 world-class automakers and suppliers including Acura, BMW, Citroën, Clarion Co. Ltd., Chrysler, Fiat, Ford, Subaru, Honda, Hyundai, Mitsubishi, NexTech, Toyota and Volvo."*
Your car comment made you look extra dumb. Considering that the Ford Sync system (made by Microsoft) is praised for its excellence and making such a system affordable to the public (prior systems by luxury automakers ranged $1250-$7500), you completely F'ed up that comment. By the way, I own a car with COMMAND and would switch over to the Microsoft system in a heartbeat.
I guess since all of the top rated most reliable cars manufacturers use Microsoft technology, everything Microsoft makes must be crap...huh?

Sep 5th 2008 7:18PM Most people ARE missing the point of this commercial. It's just a way to associate Bill/Windows with the average person. Bill's prison mugshot is used as his super saver club and shopping at a cheap shoe store for pleather shoes makes Bill human...not some pretentious ass shoving products down our throats. Jerry is just there to liven things up a bit. Anyways, you like Bill because he's the victim and he's not saying that he's better than anybody. It's human nature.
WSJ reviews HTC Touch Diamond: "can't disguise WinMo's flaws" {Engadget}
Sep 4th 2008 2:24PM I skimmed the review. Ignoring the Apple issue, it's pretty ridiculous on its own. The girl is actually expecting a desktop experience from what I could see. She praises the email interface from HTC but, then she goes on to say how answering/writing all of your emails would be frustrating from the phone. ...well, yeah! It's a phone! I don't think you can expect a desktop experience from any phone at the moment!
She didn't even mention making a call in the whole review. I'd imagine that you'd like to make a call on a phone. ...but, hey! That's just my stupid assumption of what I'd buy a phone for.
