AT&T looking to sell an 8GB iPhone 3GS? {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Nov 6th 2009 12:40AM Hmm, I'm not sure what world you live in. But in my world the 160GB iPod Classic still exists. You can even buy them at the Apple Store.
Lenovo goes crazy, lets you switch Fn and Ctrl keys in BIOS {Engadget}

Apple fixed this for you recently by putting the Fn key in the lower left of even iMac's standard keyboards (it was there for the optional wireless keyboard previously, just now it is standard).
So just like my MacBook Pro, I popped those keytops off, swapped CTRL and Fn, and never looked back.

Oct 30th 2009 9:56PM The apostrophe-for-accent has been a convention for a long time. Sorry it doesn't comport with your idea of the world... I'll get a memo out.
However, I was about to try your ALT-130 trick... then I noticed I have no numeric keypad. Nor ALT key. Hmm. Try "Option-E e"!
Apple's main ad man thinks different, steps down as Macs battle PCs like it's 1984 {Engadget}
Oct 30th 2009 8:30PM "Think different" is correct grammar, as a directive you do not use an adverb.
"Turn rightly."
Yeah.
"Think firstly before posting something about grammar."

Sony Alpha A750 keeps with tradition, leaks out ahead of release {Engadget}
Oct 30th 2009 2:17PM @SiG:
I think you make a lot of comments without having used an Alpha. The Minolta hotshoe design is actually really good compared to the standard hotshoe (except for the lack of compatibility). If you've ever had standard hotshoes on flashes break, you'll know what I mean.
If the range of Sony flashes is good enough for someone, then they can experience that hotshoe. If not, then the hotshoe adapter lets them use a flash where the hotshoe might break.
+1 on putting back the PC connector, that's way more important than the hotshoe.

"for example a FF camera and 400mm lens will have approx the same effective field of view as a cropped camera and a shorter lens, say 300mm"
If you use a camera like the Sony A900 in cropped sensor mode, you get all the advantages that you mention that the APS-C cameras would have, so I don't see the advantage to an APS-C camera. I guess on the A900/A850 you only get 11MP instead of 12MP or 14MP that a lot of APS-C cameras have.

Oct 30th 2009 2:05PM This is like the only time on Engadget where some of the comments are actually FOR a Sony product.
Of course, the anti-Sony camp is still making an appearance.
Sony's S-Frame DPP-F700 digiframe / printer hybrid hitting America in January for $200 {Engadget}
Oct 24th 2009 5:24AM It probably won't even be out in January, either, considering I'm still waiting for my Sony ICF-CL75iP Picture Frame/iPod dock, which was supposed to ship on October 1st then it was October 15th now it is "who knows".

Dec 21st 2008 4:22PM Original SR series (like SR7K), 10.4" XBRITE display? Under 4 lbs? A few years ago I wondered why we didn't have small laptops like that anymore, I guess it was planned so that netbooks could come out and we could all go "Whoa!"
