Sony Ericsson's XPERIA X1 delayed to end of the year

Aug 29th 2008 8:36AM on Engadget

SE are clueless and haven't made a decent smartphone since the P910.

No doubt the X1 will be terrible even when it is released.

There can be only one: "source" claims for iPhone 2.0.2 to not suck, 2.0 must die

Aug 29th 2008 4:47AM on Engadget Mobile

Please don't listen to anything RealityDistortion publishes. The author is the biggest mactard on the planet and lies through his teeth to make Apple look good, even when they've messed up.

Peak's Starpex wooden guitar controller gets the hands-on treatment

And what point do you say "fuck it" and actually learn to play the guitar?

UK's Advertising Standards Authority yanks iPhone ad for being misleading

"an iPod (also something not found on any other phone... I'm starting to see a pattern)"

How is "an iPod" different from "a media player", apart from the name? Plenty of phones have media players and plenty of phones can sync with iTunes.

Apple claimed that the iPhone has the "whole Internet".

The Acid3 test does not indicate whether a device or browser can show the whole Internet. It only provides compliance testing for SOME web technologies.

Mobile OSX's Safari obviously scores 0% on the Flash compliance test. Whether you like it or not, Flash is used through-out the Internet.

S60's webkit browser has Flash/Java.

But this isn't about iPhone vs. Whatever. Apple lied by saying that the iPhone gives you the whole Internet. Whether you like Flash content or not, it's part of the Internet. Also, Internet != web. Where's my FTP client, Apple? ;)

Psystar to countersue Apple for antitrust violations, will ask court to declare Leopard EULA void

Aug 27th 2008 8:13AM on Engadget

"OK, step 1. Buy a dictionary and look up what a monopoly ACTUALLY is"

Maybe you should take your own advice. :)

Apple has a vertical monopoly as proven by their fix pricing activities. They do not, however, have a horizontal monopoly.

Psystar to countersue Apple for antitrust violations, will ask court to declare Leopard EULA void

The point of this legal case isn't to get Apple to support other hardware vendors.

It's about the right of someone to legally buy a copy of the operating system - which Apple sells as a standalone product - and install it on whatever hardware they choose. Does Apple have a legal right to say how their product is used?

Nokia 6650 flip coming to AT&T to redeem the N75

Aug 27th 2008 4:48AM on Engadget

Why blame Nokia? It was obviously AT&T's decision to pick the worst S60 phone around.

Nokia 6650 flip coming to AT&T to redeem the N75

Aug 27th 2008 4:46AM on Engadget

Why did AT&T decide to release this Plain Jane when there's so many good Nokia smartphones about? Surely the N95 8GB or E71 would have been a better choice?

I assume it's not coincidence that AT&T have picked up the first Nokia smartphone in ages without WiFi...

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I'm in the market for a new phone and money isn't a limitation. I'm also not partial to any particular US carrier, but here are some of the features I'd like to have: WiFi, GPS, good coverage in lots of places, push Gmail (a must!), physical keyboard (a must!), a touchscreen, decent battery life and a relatively slim body. And please, nothing that has a fruit logo on it. No offense to the fruit fans, though. Thanks!"
