Core Values: The silicon behind Android {Engadget}
Oct 14th 2009 3:36PM That was a good read. I'm glad Anand is contributing to engadget. In my opinion, he is the most insightful and interesting technology commentator out there.
Poll: What's the most you'd pay for a quad HDTV tuner with CableCARD? {Engadget HD}
Sep 14th 2009 12:11PM I would pay $350 or so. Beyond that, it will become pretty difficult to justify.
Hands-on with the Ceton CableCARD tuner {Engadget HD}
Sep 10th 2009 2:59PM Looks great - I hope it puts off less heat than the ATI tuners.
Ceton CableCARD PC tuner details emerge {Engadget HD}
Sep 10th 2009 10:03AM As long as the price isn't crazy, this should be a winner. It looks like the 6 tuner card won't be available at retail, but 4 tuners should be enough for just about anyone...

Clear QAM HD isn't going anywhere! {Engadget HD}
Aug 28th 2009 6:10PM Just curious - is this referring to the Anandtech blog post yesterday?

Dallas Cowboys HD scoreboard hanging too low? {Engadget HD}
Aug 23rd 2009 12:10PM There really is no Yankee Stadium jet stream. They changed the design and depth of the walls in right/right center fields, leading to more home runs being hit.

Anyhow, I do hope they raise the screen at Cowboys Stadium. It's hard to believe that something that happened in the first preseason game at the stadium will never happen again, even if the Titans punter was trying to hit the screen, as the Cowboys owner and coach both claim.
CEDIA 2009 Windows Media Center predictions {Engadget HD}
Aug 10th 2009 11:55AM Here's hoping you are right about the new AMD/ATI tuner. $300 for a multi-tuner-capable card, and I am in!

Windows 7 Media Center review {Engadget HD}
Jul 27th 2009 12:05PM Thanks for the note (and the review)! The quality of the second video looked pretty good to me. Maybe it's time to go for it... but then again, a six-in-one tuner sure would be nice. Come on, Ceton.
Windows 7 Media Center review {Engadget HD}
Jul 27th 2009 11:45AM Any comments on CableCARD Media Center performance when not using an extender? I'm currently running a Windows 7 RC HTPC but have yet to try to add in CableCARDs because I have heard some complain about weird/buggy video processing when not using an extender. I have a 360 I could use as an extender, but it seems silly (and unnecessarily noisy and heat generating) to do so when the HTPC is sitting right there. Either way, I'm on the fence about whether to take the plunge now or wait to see if the Next Big Thing in CableCARD tuner hardware is just around the corner...
