Data Robotics introduces 5-bay Drobo S, enterprise-ready DroboElite {Engadget}
Nov 23rd 2009 7:42PM I guess I must be the only one here that loves my drobo. I've been waiting forever for an eSATA version - stoked to see one finally. Certainly nothing to complain about from me....
Apple patent application reveals ad-supported OS, desktop Armageddon {Engadget}
Oct 22nd 2009 1:49PM How, exactly, is something like this patentable? Software has been ad-supported for about as long as I can remember. Just because it's an OS doesn't make it a new, original idea. More patent abuse....
BBC promises Open Championship in HD next year {Engadget HD}
Jul 20th 2009 8:08PM Pretty sure Comedy Central is on the hot seat. Seriously, wtf is it with so many of their new shows still not being in HD, plus their second most valuable property (John Stewart)? It's driving me crazy. I cringe watching The Daily Show every night, it's the last standard definition show I watch on a regular basis.
URC debuts MX-5000 universal remote with haptic feedback {Engadget HD}
Jul 20th 2009 8:04PM My MX-950 looks better than this. While it can be a PITA to program for at times if you don't have top of the line equipment with distinct IR codes, it still does the job very well.
This thing is quite ugly, and no number pad? Sorry, but this seems like a step backwards to me.
HBO, Cinemax coming to Comcast's On Demand Online {Engadget HD}
Jul 14th 2009 5:59PM Words cannot describe how much I despise Comcrap and their shady tactics. Their services absolutely stink, and the only thing I did like about them, their internet service, started putting traffic caps on their customers late last year, and banning them if they go over it, without providing any way for users to know how much bandwidth they are using. I could go on and on and on with all the ways that I hate this company.
For those of you that have had Comcrap and don't know any other services, you don't know what you're missing out on. Regardless of the lies they tell you, they DO NOT have more HD than the competition (at least, DirecTV, I can't speak for the other satellite providers), they do NOT have cheaper rates, and lord god, I could go ALL DAY LONG on how inferior their DVR product is in every single conceivable way, than the competition.
Surprising no one, StarCraft II fans petition for LAN support {Joystiq}
Jul 2nd 2009 4:49PM I don't know why people continue to use http://www.petitiononline.com when http://www.thepetitionsite.com is so much better in just about every way.
Red Faction: Guerrilla getting three DLC packs, first coming August 13 {Joystiq}
Jun 30th 2009 6:13PM Am I the only one that's frustrated with all of these companies releasing a game then charging for more downloadable content a couple months later? I can't get past the feeling that we're being ushered into an era of gaming that I really don't want to go to.
So this is how gaming and ownership dies? With thunderous applause.
I'd rather buy the sequel outright in another year when they can do it justice. I just really don't want to buy something that I can't hold in my hand, and resell to someone else.
Sony investigating PSP phone? {Engadget}
Jun 29th 2009 3:05PM Add a good camera to it and I'd buy this in a heatbeat. Sony has all the IP and technology to do this very well, they just need to cooperate and put it all together.
Sony CEO Howard Stringer on music: "If we had gone with open technology from the start, I think we probably would have beaten Apple" {Engadget}
May 11th 2009 2:08PM Alright Sony..... so now here's your chance to do it with video, man! GET IT FREAKING DONE ALREADY! The lack of .MKV support on the PS3 is one area you can begin with, for starters.
Joystiq live from Nintendo's GDC 2009 keynote {Joystiq}
Mar 25th 2009 1:20PM Maybe it's just me, but I found that to be wholly uninspiring.
