Sep 30th 2007 12:13PM Don't know for sure...hoping to win so I can actually play Halo for the first time ;-)
Engadget's relaunch giveaways: Xbox 360 Premium pack number three {Engadget}
Oct 13th 2006 12:58PM Not sure if this is considered an accessory, but I would get XNA to start making games for the marketplace.
The Clicker: Digital content -- why the sense of entitlement? {Engadget}
Sep 22nd 2006 12:56PM The argument about the restaurant also bring up a good counter point. If I eat at an expensive restaurant and I am not happy with the quality of the food I can complain to management face to face and demand something be done (usually the meal would be on the house). Now big corporations don't really care about consumers, only profits. So if I want to buy a CD to avoid DRM I have to live with all of the tracks and I cannot return the CD to the store if I am not happy with it. How many CDs have you bought in the past because you liked one or two songs only to find out that the rest of the CD is just filler that sucks?
The distinction that content you buy cannot be returned and you are stuck with whatever 4 point legalese BS they type makes content totally different from physical goods that can be returned to a store if you are unsatisfied.
LG KG920 5 megapixel cameraphone coming to Europe! {Engadget Mobile}
Feb 16th 2006 8:46AM You really think that thing is sexy? I think it is pretty fugly - the result of trying to cram too much into too little a space. And what is with the dual flashes? A "light ring" would have looked alot better and allowed light to reach the subject regardless of angle. Oh well, to each his/her own.
Steve Ballmer predicts $100 smartphones in 1-2 years {Engadget Mobile}
Feb 15th 2006 9:54AM Finally! It has taken the industry this long to realize that consumers want less expensive smartphones. Heck better software in current cellphones would be a big improvement. I know that the normal cameraphones they hawk these days are more than capable of handling user data better and being able to synch with a computer database of names/addresses/numbers.
XT9 takes predictive text entry to the Xtreme {Engadget Mobile}
Feb 14th 2006 10:03PM Sweet!I can't wait for a regular sized cell phone that offers stylus support. I would love to see a mini Palm OS phone where you write on the whole screen (since it would be a small screen) instead of the palm grey box at the bottom.
The Clicker: DTCSA -- A whole lot of analog holes are being plugged {Engadget}
Dec 22nd 2005 8:49PM This may be an extreme response, but this is the kind of corruption in government (the lawmakers being paid off to introduce such trash) will lead to an anarchy if it goes on long enough. The internet is a powerful force that will, I hope, undo a lot of wrongs in our government.
I hope these dark days of governing by the few voices (the ones with the money) are quickly overshadowed by a true democracy of governing by many voices. Too bad we have 3 more years of the current administration with it's corporate agenda so plainly visible.
