DIY Android Balloon Launches 70K Feet Into Earth's Atmosphere
It seems there's no shortage of amateur flight enthusiasts sending balloons into the sky. Still, when you consider the money and resources devoted to most of these missions, it's hard to call them "amateur" projects at all.
But a group of people in San Francisco recently proved that new ballooning heights can still be reached for relatively cheap. According to Wired, seven electronics nuts who ...
The much anticipated new Google Phone, dubbed the Nexus One, has been on the lips of just about everyone in the days leading up to its reported January release. Engadget has exclusive pics of the elusive device, and they seem to be similar to more dubious photos that had been circulating the Web previously.
The device appears to be slimmer than the HTC myTouch, and comes with a dedicated volume ...
Without a doubt, 2009 is destined to be the year of The Android. Samsung earlier this week announced its ticket to the party with a Q2 launch of its Android phones on both Sprint Nextel and T-Mobile in the US. Apparently, the touch-screen device will be an adaptation of the Omnia (Korea's 800 x 480 pixel version please) and Instinct. In other words, a rectangle with a full-screen display and ...
We've heard that it's been showing up on doorsteps and in stores for a few days now, but T-Mobile has just officially given the word that the G1 is now available in white to complement bronze and the especially personality-free black (not to say there's anything wrong with that, black G1 owners). The price, hardware, and software are all the same, so if you thought this release might somehow ...
Well, now isn't this something? Best Buy has its fancy little iPhone 3G, but it'll be Wally World offering up the G1 outside of official T-Mobile outlets. As we'd heard yesterday, 550 Wal-Mart stores across the country will begin selling the Android-powered handset beginning tomorrow, and folks who opt to pick one up here versus a traditional T-Mob store will save $31.11. Yep -- according to ...
Well, it's finally official (this morning T-Mobile and Google made an announcement in NYC, which is where we are right now). The Google phone is officially now known as the T-Mobile G1. When closed it looks an awful lot like the iPhone, which a touchscreen that, at least from watching the video T-Mobile showed us this morning, looks an awful lot like the iPhone. But that screen actually swivels ...
digg_url = 'http://digg.com/gadgets/Meet_the_T_Mobile_G1_Engadget'; Uh, c'mon guys -- this is a little ridiculous. Now typically, you want to keep this sort of thing under wraps until the day of your event, but it seems like the cats and kittens at T-Mobile can't contain themselves. Yes, you're looking at the first official product shot of the G1 Android phone ever. Enjoy it. Update: TmoNews ...
