Engadget's 5th birthday giveaway, part 1: win an Optimus Maximus keyboard!

Apr 14th 2009 7:27PM on Engadget

The official launch of the iPhone has got to be my favourite.

Even though I've barely used the, and wouldn't buy one, the thrill of watching the liveblogged experience was great. It was the first Jobs keynote I'd followed online too.

GestureTek brings 3D and gestures together for remote control

I interviewed for these guys earlier last year.

They hadn't finished their instructional video on how to use one of their products, so they'd put Rickroll in as a placeholder.

Of all the places to get rickrolled, I wasn't expecting it in a job interview.

Nuvation shows off air hockey-playing robot

NuVation is pretty sweet.

They had a presentation on campus at UW looking for students to hire.
If only I was an Electrical/Computer engineer.

I'm impressed with them overall. Though their flame-throwing robot was a bit cooler than the air hockey one, even if it was possibly a bit less technically advanced.

Continental Airlines expands paperless boarding in US

Air Canada too has been doing this.

As far as I know, its actually available throughout Canada. Even in my dinky little airport in Timmins, ON, you can use paperless boarding, though they just look at your screen and key in the number instead of scanning.

I haven't personally tried this because I've been too afraid of uninformed staff, I think I will next time I fly.

Air Canada does this too, but I've always suspected it would cause more trouble than anything.

I'm flying next week, so I could try this, but I'll more likely just use the self-check-in booths that never have any lineup anyways.

Virgin Mobile Canada gets unlimited data for $10, two new phones

This isn't *WAY* cheaper than other plans. Bell offers it for $7, and Solo and PC Mobile both offer $5 (PC has no EVDO phones though).

The hundred gadget giveaway, grand prize round: Insignia NS-LCD37 LCD HDTV

This would be a hot upgrade from my 32" SDTV.

The hundred gadget giveaway, grand prize round: unlocked iPhone (4GB)

I was considering buying another phone, but free would be be better.

The hundred gadget giveaway, grand prize round: Nikon D40 DSLR

That would be a very nice camera.

The hundred gadget giveaway: round 24

I could use the bag, since I forgot mine at home when I moved to university.

Engadget giveaways ftw.

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!"
