Should've bought a Garmin? Testing the iPhone 3G's GPS capabilities {Autoblog}
Jul 14th 2008 1:14PM FWIW, I've got Telenav on my motorola q9h, and I never use it. It features turn-by-turn voice nav, updated POIs etc, but it's still too cumbersome compared to my Garmin 670. Garmin is coming out with their own cellphone/GPS combo, but until they do, most cellphone GPS'es are more novelty than anything else.
Audi Q5 to boast NVIDIA-powered interface, gadgets aplenty {Engadget}
Jun 5th 2008 6:57PM If I were Audi, I would focus on increasing reliability of their current vehicles instead of adding bells and whistles to new ones. I can't tell you how many times I've seen brand new Audi's driving around with blown headlights and tail-lights. Most of these cars haven't even received their license plates yet. They need serious quality control.

Dell handset rumors continue to swirl {Engadget}
Mar 19th 2008 8:59AM Six or seven years ago, Pocket PC PDAs were much more expensive than Palm-based PDAs. When Dell introduced the (cheaply priced) Axim X5, it brought a whole new user base to what is now Windows Mobile. I still have fond memories of my X5 brick; it was the device that switched me over from Palm OS. I've been through seven or eight Windows Mobile devices now and haven't looked back.

MacBook Air with SSD tested: performance boost nowhere to be found {Engadget}
Feb 6th 2008 5:24PM These benchmarks make the Santa Rosa Macbook look like a real bargain. The Macbook is the true sweet spot in Apple's laptop line-up. Optical drive, full of ports, great performance, prices starting around $1000. How can you beat that?

MacBook Air review {Engadget}
Jan 25th 2008 7:02PM Mod me down if you want, but this is actually a serious question. I currently have a Fujitsu P7010, 10.6" ultraportable that I dearly love, but is falling apart after three years of serious use. I never use the optical drive, and have an extra battery installed there. I rarely use more than one USB port, and that's only to tether a USB cable to my Blackjack for 3G. I have read everything I could find about the MBA. I owned a 1st Gen Macbook (2.0GHz Core Duo, 2GB RAM) for about a year, but ended up giving it to a family member. I'm currently looking at the upcoming Lenovo x300, revised Toshiba R500 with 3G, maybe Sony TZ series.
My wife and I are double income no kids (DINKs) with an annual household income close to $600k. Am I one of these "yuppie, starbucks, range rover" people that you all think Apple is targeting? Are you guys really bashing Apple, or are you bashing the archetype that you THINK Apple is targeting? Also, since I've got such a huge disposable income, should I get one?
