I continue to fail to see why reviewers in particular say that not having video on a DSLR is a detriment. That's like saying it isn't a good camera because it doesn't have a cheese grater. If you want video, get a video camera. Heck you can get one that is smaller than a good lens for this thing and stick it in your camera bag if you are that worried about it. I own the E-510 and bought it because it takes great pictures while providing all the manual control a hobbyist could want AND it is also easy enough for the wife to use as a point and shoot (without the shutter lag of course) for the children.
It is probably not original but it would be nice if you could have the option (key point) sort the app icons by how often they are used. Then you could see those apps at the end that don't get used that often and you can just get rid of them instead of swiping past them. Of course categories like what is offered on jailbroken phones. Really anything is better than the cesspool of icons currently offered.
Sad to say but when I switched from cable to DirecTV in order to get more HD content than my local cable provider, I shelved my Series2 TiVo with lifetime subscription. I would certainly use a DirecTV Tivo if given the option but here are the qualities I look for in my technology:
- Integrated
- Reliable
- Ease-of-use
- Upgradeable

Tivo had 3 of these 4 qualities sans the Integrated bit. The serial connection to the cable box was a work-around at best. It may be too late, but if they could get their interface (which could use a refresh) into the hardware of those that deliver content, I would be a happy camper. Unfortunately, I also realize that controlling which hardware your software goes on to is how you make said devices reliable. Hey, it works for Apple despite all the naysayers naysaying.
I would have rather seen an older girl and then to see him moving his hands up and just having the girl's clothes vanish. That's what I'm talkin' 'bout! Porn is the only motive that will commercialize all relevant technologies.
I hope they don't use that picture above to market its "trenching ability." Looks to me to just be playing with its jet swords and not doing any actual work.
"...only once Windows 7 "meets its quality bar for release." Sounds like a good metric to go by..."

It depends on how low you set the bar. It kind of like finding the right woman; Set your standards low and you can never be disappointed.
My beef with factory systems is that there is no upgradeability as far as hardware. Sure, the maps can be updated but everyone knows that the hardware technology will be nearly obsolete before you even finish making payments. I think benefits of portability and upgradeability outweigh the lack of a clean integrated installation.
Now future generations aren't going to know the answer to the joke, "What do Eskimos get from sitting on the ice for too long?"

Truly the end of an era.

Everything is backward down there (under) I hear.
Does kinda make you wonder about the reliability of this unit. Good eye though.
I'm confused, I thought the title of the article was "5 SUVs..." and the list only includes 2 SUVs and 6 total entries. Perhaps my engineering math is off or has been trumped by creative license.
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!"
