OCZ's Colossus desktop SSD line ships next week

Nov 19th 2009 10:30AM on Engadget

I'm pretty tempted to get a 1 TB one as a media drive for my file server. Maybe in 6mo when the prices have settled a bit.

Yeah it costs a bunch, but never having to worry about drive failure again is worth it to me. I've had so many drives fail over the years that I never ever ever want to see spinning metal discs ever again.

@kojo87 Well I just bought two 256 GB SSDs at $750 a pop - one for my internal drive and one for external media storage.

Yeah it costs a bit, but I can afford it, and I hate harddives with a passion. I never again want think if this stall or that clicking noise means my data is gone forever. I've had so many drives die, had to restore so much data, that I'm turned off to spinning platters of metal forever. No more moving parts - that's worth the price premium to me.

It's not "completely free", you're paying the TV licence fee.

The only proper position for a control key is to the left of "A". Bottom left is an abomination.

DIYer concocts homegrown View-Master, relies on HTC Magic and Google Street View (video)

I was expecting this to use Layar or some kind of Augmented reality app. This is what I want to do: Two phones, running Layar or something, one for each eye. Then you get stereoscopic vision, you can actually see the world around you so you don't get hit by a car, and you get google local results or what have you.

"technological stagnation" wtf? I'd say the green movement has actually spurned technological innovation. We're moving away from stagnated technology like coal power and the combustion engine and instead developing the alternatives, causing new strides in solar power, wind power, battery tech, electrical engine tech etc.

Samsung LTE USB modem winds up in FCC database

This coincides nicely with Ericsson and Samsung just having done a live LTE interoperability test with Samsung hardware on an Ericsson network. http://www.ericsson.com/ericsson/press/releases/20091023-1349710.shtml

Support for universal micro-USB phone chargers grows with ITU approval

ridata: Then how about the 400 million yearly Nokia pop-port or 100 million yearly Sony Ericsson fastport phones? Those sound like more popular standards to me.

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I own an iPhone 3G and I'm looking for a decent speaker / alarm clock for it. I am going to listen music in a mid-sized room, so I want nice quality speakers with solid bass. I also want to use it as an alarm clock, so it would be great if there is such a feature. The price can be low-mid to mid-high range. I was looking at the Klipsch iGroove SXT; it's powerful, slick and the reviews are good, but it doesn't have an alarm clock feature. It's no deal breaker if I can set it up from the iPhone, but I'm not sure. Thanks!"
