The Daily Engadget: Motorola's CLIQ Reviewed, and a Shape-Shifting Robot
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.

Motorola CLIQ Review
Google's Android software is the new hotness in the smartphone business, so Motorola decided to slap it in the new CLIQ. How does the QWERTY-keyboard-equipped phone hold up? Engadget finds out.

iRobot's Gooey Robot Shows Up on Video
None of us can wait till the future gets here. Not the future fraught with economic collapse, world wars, and disease, mind you, but the future filled with cars flying silently through the cloudless sky, towering cities made of glistening abalone, and shape-shifting robots. Actually, Roomba's gooey robotic cousin is a thing of the present.

BlackBerry Storm2 Gets Official
First it was leaked, then it quickly became official. There's a new BlackBerry coming, and it will make its European debut in October.

Sidekick owners who are still sore over the loss of their precious information now have something to smile about: a free Peek Pronto for their troubles.

Michael Dell Hates on Netbooks, Vista
Okay, so it's easy to pick on Vista. But netbooks? C'mon Michael, everybody loves those little things.

Wi-Fi Direct Challenges Bluetooth
Bluetooth is everywhere, but that isn't stopping the Wi-Fi Alliance from giving it a little competition. The Alliance is developing what it's calling Wi-Fi Direct -- a means for two devices to connect directly over standard wireless signals.
