TiVo's AN0100 802.11n WiFi adapter hits the FCC, stirs up imaginations {Engadget}
Nov 6th 2009 1:51PM Just to chime in with the crowd, this thing isn't going to solve anything. Even _ethernet_ transfers don't run at anything resembling 100mbps.
We need a series 4 box stat. If it could do the sling-thing, it might even sell, too.
Microsoft's MSN Direct service to shut down in 2012 {Engadget}
Oct 28th 2009 5:31PM Too bad, just bought a MSNDirect-enabled weather clock. Guess it'll be just a clock in a couple years. Oh well.
Worked pretty nice, too... them's the breaks.
Heckler and Koch MP5 sub-machine gun Wiimote controller: 'nuff said {Engadget}
Oct 16th 2009 10:47AM I forsee H&K getting pissy about this. They recently cracked down on a .22LR clone of the MP-5 because it looked too similar.
Ask Engadget HD: Would an SSD upgrade help my HTPC performance? {Engadget HD}
Oct 15th 2009 12:06PM I also heard that using a ReadyBoost drive helps with that problem. Something to try before sinking the cash into a good SSD.
Samsung Moment for Sprint first hands-on! {Engadget}
Oct 7th 2009 3:21PM What's the resolution? 480x320 or 800x480?
Samsung Moment slider coming to Sprint, packing Android (update: official, $179) {Engadget}
Oct 7th 2009 12:35PM This might be the phone to get me off Windows Mobile. I'm willing to believe, Sprint. Just sell it to me for a decent price.
Robbie Bach sits down for a roundtable discussion, Engadget is there {Engadget}
Oct 6th 2009 12:59PM Best self-contradiction ever:
"We ask Robbie about Pink and if a Microsoft phone is in the company's future: "I don't see that." Robbie was pretty vehement that making a piece of hardware for mobile space isn't really in the company's plans. "Apple demonstrated that the end to end experience worked, so we did that with the Zune." He says he doesn't think it makes sense for the scale of the mobile market."
So, you believe Apple when it comes to the success of end-to-end services, but you somehow manage to disbelieve the stunning success of the iPhone with your next breath? Look, it's obvious that a Zune phone is something the market wants. It's something that could provide Microsoft with a huge opportunity to integrate its online offerings into a mobile device. The very idea that the "scale" of the market is what prevents this is completely incoherent reasoning - the mobile market is huge, and that makes it way easier to get your foot in the door.
Please tell me there was some sort of epic misquote here. *sigh*
Sony says Nazi PS3 ad is a "mock campaign" and not real {Engadget}
Oct 1st 2009 1:36PM Well, I'm sure they're glad that their mock campaign pictures with the player throwing the lever to gas some Jews didn't get released!
FCC chairman formally proposes net neutrality rules {Engadget}
Sep 21st 2009 2:11PM This will just accelerate the move to bandwidth caps.
The Zune HD will support surround sound {Engadget HD}
Aug 26th 2009 1:01PM From what I understand, Microsoft would have to pay more money to license the AC-3 decoder, or something along those lines. Probably an issue distributing it with the trial version...
