The Daily Engadget: Apple Rock and Roll Event Next Week, and Cheap OLEDs Coming
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 (or, at least, what we think is tops). For more details on any of these stories, click on the Engadget links in each story below.

Apple's Rock and Roll Themed Event
Apple fans have been eager to see how the company will respond to the Zune HD, perhaps the biggest threat to the iPod yet. We'll all find out next week at Apple's annual iPod event in sunny San Francisco.

Nintendo Releasing Black Wiimote to North America
Have you been waiting for Nintendo to release a black Wii console for the North American market before you dive in? Sadly you'll have to keep waiting, but you can at least buy a black controller.

It's been a long, long time coming, but the semi-official Dell smart phone for China has finally been given the proper hands-on treatment.

You may have heard tales of developers making millions by releasing little apps into Apple's App Store. Sadly, things don't seem to be quite so profitable on the Android side: Developers say they're not even able to pay the rent with the income from their titles.
