Hands-on with Samsung's slick, sliding glory, the F700

Mar 17th 2007 4:32PM on Engadget Mobile

A perfect example of a tier 1 company crushing the best that a tier 2 company has to offer. HTC assembles components from other manufacturers. Samsung makes all those components and can customize however they want.

HTC has their work cut out for them. Welcome to a 5% margin.

Geneva Motor Show: Donkervoort D8 GT

Mar 7th 2007 6:01PM on Autoblog

I had a donkervoort once and had to go to the hospital to get it burned off. Ouch! On the upside it was no longer an issue on first dates.

Just get a Windows Mobile Smartphone and use Microsoft's excellent Live program to show realtime traffic on maps.

Here's a screenshot:

Google maps is actually behind the times these days.

Consumer Reports announces its 10 Top Picks of the year

Mar 1st 2007 2:43AM on Autoblog

Bunch of BS racist comments here. The Japanese have been making great cars for 30 years, deal with it.

And this is CONSUMER reports, not Internet Crank reports.

Until the Germans can build a car with working tail lights and the Americans can build a car that doesn't just slowly melt into the concrete...more power to the Japanese and their AWESOME American factories.

Professor singles out mobile carriers for stifling cellphone innovation

Funny how the phone pictured suffers from none of the problems listed in the article. T-Mobile and Windows Mobile have their plusses.

The game has changed

Jan 9th 2007 3:16PM on Engadget

Oh, and Palm is irrelevant at this point. Even Microsoft has had limited success after 5 years of hammering on the market. Apple has ONE launch carrier with a device that costs TWICE as much as the competition.

Motorola, Nokia and Samsung are all YAWNING.

The game has changed

Jan 9th 2007 3:13PM on Engadget

It looks like a nice convergence device but not something I can carry in my back pocket. The PDA died and Smartphones are taking over. Maybe Apple thinks an iPod with a phone is da future.

And I just don't see how they are going to deliver on battery life.

The Apple iPhone

Jan 9th 2007 2:01PM on Engadget

I think that Apple might have some trouble getting this done on time. They are promising a device with hardware features that will be bleeding edge even in 6 months. All that performance and still decent battery life?

DaimlerChrysler hybrid buses outperform CNG and diesel buses in New York City

Dec 4th 2006 8:47PM on Autoblog Green

This is promising since Seattle's brand new fleet of diesel hybrids got LESS MPG than the regular diesel ones and they cost a lot more.

Is Apple Doomed?

Nov 23rd 2006 2:49PM on The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)

In all seriousness though, if the platform of the future is "the Internet" what is Apple doing to cover their bases?

Certainly the ipod synergizes well as far as being a content viewer.

Or put another way, if Apple's future competition is Google and less so, Windows Live, how are they planning to compete? More hardware?

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I'm looking for a solid state drive, around 32 to 64GB, for use in my web server. The drive will contain my web sites and the operating system, either Windows Server 2008 R2 or Ubuntu. Large storage is handled by a separate RAID array, so capacity is not an issue. Rather, I am looking for the fastest, longest-lasting, and most reliable drive under $150 that is suitable to my application. Any thoughts? Thanks!"
