The Daily Engadget: iPhone 3G S Review, Creepy Japanese Robot Reads
Our friends over at Engadget obsessively cover everything new in gadgets and consumer electronics, which is why we compile this daily roundup of their top stuff. For more details on any of these stories, click on the Engadget links in each story below.

Seriously, you'd be better off with the robotic storyteller (above).
