Nokia shows off N900's sweet web browsing skills on video {Engadget}
Oct 7th 2009 6:18AM Definitely not. Galileo is not operational yet and won't be so until 2013 by which time this device will be as exciting as a Motorola StarTAC.
If you are talking about the EGNOS GPS correction signals, then again, no.
EGNOS frequencies are compatible with the US WAAS system and so far I am not aware of any GPS-equipped smartphone devices that make use of the latter either so I'd be very surprised if this phone supports it (especially given that EGNOS went public far later than when the hardware for this device was finalised).
Windows Mobile 6.5 review {Engadget}
Oct 6th 2009 10:38AM Is that it?
Was that the famed Simultaneous Global Windows Mobile 6.5 launch??!
Two official handset announcements of devices that were announced ages ago anyway? (HTC Imagio and Pure)
Is that all that's readily available to buy on the grand WinMo launch day with other devices not coming to market until November, the holidays or even January?
Seriously??
What happened to all those grand announcements from SonyEricsson (what ever happened to X2?) and Samsung (when is this rumoured Omnia Pro B7610 with 6.5 finally going to come out?)
Not to mention Microsoft's own WinMo website which mentions exactly TWO handsets with 6.5 on it.

I have an Xperia X1 and I have absolutely ZERO incentive to upgrade at this point; no incentive from a hardware point of view and no incentive from an OS aspect either.
Where's that grand choice we were promised??
By the time they release other handsets, WinMo will be totally irrelevant because both the Pre and Android as well as Maemo will only have strengthened their market presence and enriched their app stores.
FAIL!

Pure Sensia DAB / WiFi radio gains touchscreen, streaming and Facebook {Engadget}
Sep 21st 2009 4:32AM FM is irrelevant to me as any radio stations I want can be listened to via a net stream.
Same goes for DAB which was DOA as far as I'm concerned...
So what does that leave us with? An overpriced wifi radio with limited functionality.
Chumby does all that and much, much more for less money.
I'll have the latter any time.
There's no future in closed systems like these when the widget model has been tried and tested and proven its worth already.

Mar 24th 2009 6:30AM Hell$tra, the pride and glory of Australian Fraudband...
The same ISP that just a two years ago in 2007 was offering ADSL with 200 megabytes a month data download limit...
The company that brings Australia to the top of the bottom in OECD's annual reports when it comes to network access penetration in businesses and households.
The $hining $tar behind the reason why the online business market in Australia (especially when it comes to streaming media services) is rock bottom and Australian online businesses who target Australians are better off hosting their sites several thousand miles across the pond, in the US rather than on home soil.
Just like their previous iteration of NextG network, this is more about boosting Hell$tra's stock than offering a true solution that truly benefits the consumer.
Next G?
Next please!
