Fresno-Yosemite International taps into solar power {Engadget}
Jul 18th 2008 4:01AM Wow, what's up with everyone harshing on solar power? It's 100% clean, and sunshine is abundant here in Fresno most of the year, with the notable exception of foggy winter mornings.
Building more nuclear power infrastructure will be a non-starter until that pesky 'INCREDIBLY HAZARDOUS WASTE' issue is resolved. Why insist upon *one* technology as a savior and not utilize all (preferably clean) sources available?
Orange's recharge Pod tent to keep mobiles juiced at Glastonbury {Engadget}
Jun 16th 2008 10:24AM AT&T had something like this at Coachella this year, in their 'Blue Room'. In addition to being mercifully air conditioned, the room (actually a tent) allowed you to charge your phone for free, just by dropping it off with their staff and picking it up an hour or so later. I don't think it was solar powered, though, which would actually make a lot of sense at an event like Coachella where sunshine is more abundant than necessary!
Overall, pretty handy, though inexplicably they didn't seem to have a charger for my AT&T Tilt. (they had *something* with a mini-USB tip, but it didn't charge the phone at all; I suspect they had a RAZR charger or something that was vendor-locked to only work with Motorola)

MacBook Air in the air? {Engadget}
Jan 14th 2008 9:34AM erm, no, Zune was an invented word... you can't use generic words as a trademark unless you very narrowly define their use, like 'Apple Computer' or 'Windows Operating System' or something
Zune wasn't a standard English word, they made it up, so they own it outright as far as I know
Apple shuts down Think Secret {Engadget}
Dec 20th 2007 7:00AM Yeah, Archos knows nothing about touchscreen-enabled PMPs with wifi and a web browser, and clearly the market wasn't headed in that direction before the iPhone, riiiiight...
Why does Apple so often get credit for 'inventing' things like 'mp3 player', or the color white, or wifi-enabled mp3 players? Is it seriously just marketing clout?
The finger, improved: Pogo Stylus answers iPhone's unasked question {Engadget Mobile}
Dec 3rd 2007 10:53AM The only justification I can think of for this thing would be Winter.
(i.e., people wearing gloves and unable/unwilling to easily touch their iPhone directly.)
Even still, this seems like a lot of bulk added to a snazzy iPhone for little reason.
