HTC's Dream a super skinny QWERTY bananaphone? {Engadget Mobile}
Aug 26th 2008 7:23AM
It's all about the chin!!
This is a mobile first, and a web browser second (or the other way round) - turn the device 90 degrees, tilted roller ball - fits nicely on the thumb and you're off - no dirty marks on the screen - see blog post - http://bit.ly/W6rTX
PS great for gaming?
PPS the logo on the back - let me suggest Google pay HTC $50 a handset for the PR - direct subsidy to get the google phone in the market cheap.
Apple halving iPhone projections for quarter? {Engadget}
Jan 24th 2008 8:54AM
Okay 10m for 2008
Digitimes - 1.5m per quarter (standard run rate) = 6m
New 3G Model - 2m per quarter upgrade (July to Dec) = 4m
Don't forget the europeans will be more keen with a 3G model - and we haven't discussed the possibility of a 'nano' version appearing later in the year.

If they project 10m is that in total?
4m to 2007 - leaving 6m to the end of 2008 - 1.5m per quarter
not unrealisable if they release a 3g version during the year.
O2 claims iPhone is its fastest-selling device -- ever {Engadget Mobile}

I think there is a growing consensus that the iPhone is selling slower in the UK than the US - what will be interesting is if this is repeated elsewhere ... only time will tell.

Nobody disputes it a big move forward on UI, but in the UK the iPhone is very expensive
1. We pay $540 for the phone (not $399)
2. 18 month contract $70 per month (not $60) - unlimited data and 200 mins (not 450 , no rollover, no free mobile to mobile) and 200 SMS (200 plus 5000 off peak)
Its a big heap of beans - and maybe we feel a little exploited.
The 10-inch Eee PC, hiding in plain sight? {Engadget}
Nov 15th 2007 3:33AM what if it was always the intention to introduce a 10" model.
Using some very basic high school maths it is possible to theoretically possible to put a 10" screen in the lid of the current form factor.
If all you had to do was change the screen - the economies of scale you could achieve would be great.
Clearly you wouldn't annouce this on day one - because you would miss the original price point $199 original discussed AND no-one would buy the smaller 7" version with space around the screen when you could get an ultra portable laptop for a few hundred bucks more.
