Sep 15th 2010 5:01PM bring it! Can't wait!

Samsung Blu-ray players won't play Warner, Universal movies after firmware update, require a rollback (Engadget)

Aug 22nd 2010 5:17PM I've been bitten by this. My Samsung Blu Ray player is a piece of crap. Picked up a walmart brand and it plays freakin' everything I can throw at it.

China to build ginormous buses that cars can drive under (video) (Engadget)

Aug 2nd 2010 10:08AM How about before building these buses, they increase the bandwidth for the video?

2011 Subaru Outback gains in-car WiFi option, strange Maine birds not included (Engadget)

Jul 16th 2010 11:32PM My Tribeca has wifi hot spot in it... It's called a Palm Pre and it's a lot less expensive. I do support the idea of the eventual ubiquitous web so good on ya, Subaru.

Coulomb gets in an Empire State of mind, switches on NYC's first public EV charging station (Engadget)

Jul 16th 2010 3:53PM Public charging stations alone just seem to be a bad idea. Instead, a swappable battery system would make more sense. This way, long trips would not be hindered by the battery's need to recharge. In the same way you fill up your car in 5 minutes, you stop at the battery station, swap out the standardized battery and you are on your way. It could even be automated like a car wash. You pull up, swipe your card, the track pulls your car through, disengages the old battery from below, adds the new one, runs a system check, and you are on your way. I'm not opposed to having the option to recharge: Topping off at home or at work would be fine, but dedicated battery stations would reduce the burden on our already overloaded power grid.

HP / Palm buyout officially complete -- get ready for webOS printers (Engadget)

Jul 1st 2010 11:15AM Wow, way to not do any research before writing this post. Rubinstein will be the head of HP's new mobile division that will absorb the iPaq department. As of now, the Palm name is retained and is listed as "a subsidiary of HP" on HP's website. All good news for Palm and WebOS fans! Perhaps you should have done like Engadget's other writers and ripped off your post from precentral.net.
