Insignia NS-HD01: first-ever portable HD Radio on sale at Best Buy {Engadget}
Jul 12th 2009 2:08AM With HD Radio, if the digital signal is too weak, it will switch to analog. One problem with this is the fact that many times, the analog signal is out of sync with the digital signal. Stations have to properly configure a delay for the analog signal in order to avoid this, and many times they just don't bother. So if you're in a fringe signal area, it can get pretty annoying.
Baseball umps cite HDTV, SportsCenter for changing the way games are called {Engadget HD}
Jul 10th 2009 4:36PM If replay ruined football for you, you were never a fan of football to begin with. There is a MAXIMUM of six replays that can be called for by coaches in a game, and I doubt there has ever been a game where all six were actually used. The replay booth is reviewing every call anyway, and they'll only signal for an official review in a close situation. Replay has only made the game better, and I feel it's use should be expanded.

New Cradlepoint firmware turns MiFi into -- wait for it -- a 3G WiFi router {Engadget}
Jul 10th 2009 4:24PM Why? Laptops with built-in 3G data cards already exist, I'm using one right now. I can't use WiFi and the built-in data card at the same time, but I can't imagine why I'd want to.
