Apple's Magic Mouse: one button, multitouch gestures, Bluetooth, four-month battery life {Engadget}
Oct 21st 2009 7:15AM The new mouse is nice for iMac users who want the multi-touch functionality of the glass track pad but have no real alternative. I'm sure there might be a Wacom or Logitech accessory out there, but the fact is native hardware will play nicer in this environment.
I'm of course going to try before I buy today, but I'm excited. I think it finally delivers multi-touch functionality that is useful to the desktop owner...although the new iMac is twice as nice as the one I bought a year ago.
iGo enters the iPhone navigation sweepstakes {The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)}
Aug 13th 2009 6:57AM Navigon has a weak POI database. I was just using it for two weeks on my honeymoon. It's great finding your nearest Best Buy, Holiday Inn, or Burger King/Dunkin Donuts. But when you go to a place looking for local POIs, its frustrating when you can't get them.
We tried to route a drive to Medevil Times for dinner. It got us there, but the POI database didn't have it in there. This was true for a lot of major local sites in Myrtle Beach, where we were.
I would stick with Navigon. The no text to speech wasn't huge...and all around it worked nicely.

Poll: Do you prefer plasma or LCD? {Engadget HD}
Jan 18th 2009 12:47PM For me, it comes down to the lighting in the room.
Because I tend to watch a lot of movies with the lights on, the brightness comes through better on my lg LCD. I've thought recently about the KURO and the benefit of deeper contrasts and blacks. It just depends how you watch your HDTV.
Wii Fit set to outpace Grand Theft Auto IV -- gamer geeks weep, gnash teeth {Engadget}
Oct 22nd 2008 5:16AM I bought a Wii Fit for the girlfriend for her birthday in September. Since then I've used it twice and she's yet to create a profile for herself. So the buzz alone made her ask for the thing, god know if she'll ever use it. Maybe I can show her the girl hool-a-hooping in her underwear video as motivation.

TWC officially on a roll, adds 5 more in Buffalo, NY {Engadget HD}
Sep 26th 2008 7:48PM As AlbanyHDTV said, we've had these channels for awhile. But they better keep expanding, I'm an inch away from going to DirectTV for VH1 HD and NFL Network.
I have to admit though, TWC has done an excellent job periodically rolling out new features and channels.
