Cable companies miss tru2way deadline, insist it's no big deal {Engadget HD}

Jul 3rd 2009 10:28PM Um.. You are not describing an SDV issue, but a lack of authorization. Sounds to me like your cablecard need to be re-paired (not repaired, but paired again). Instead of calling insisting that you need a Tuning Resolver, just bring up the cablecard menu on the tivo, and have them double check the pairing information. I would be willing to bet dollars to doughnuts that the Data number has changed, and needs to be re-entered in their controller.

Sierra Wireless AirCard 402 plays PC Card and ExpressCard roles {Engadget}

Apr 21st 2009 5:00PM ... Wait.. why is this news? Because it comes with a PCMCIA to Expresscard adapter? Because its "only" $100?

Sprint has had the Merlin EX720 for quite a while now, which also comes with a PCMCIA adapter. It can be had for free after the mentioned $50 MIR too..

Motorola, Time Warner mixing up multiroom, tru2way cable setups due later this year {Engadget}

Apr 1st 2009 4:18PM If you have anything to do with product development, PLEASE put Power buttons on your future boxes.. And if you can swing it, at least a channel up/down button.. Its crazy that the DCH100/200 and DCX3200 have no buttons at all..

Motorola, Time Warner mixing up multiroom, tru2way cable setups due later this year {Engadget}

Apr 1st 2009 4:09PM Actually, the DCX3400 and the DCH3xxx/6xxx series are the only Moto STB's that still have an LED Front panel. The DCX3200 and DCH100/200 do not. Then again, they also ditched the buttons too, meaning if you loose/break/smash your remote, your stuck on whatever channel you last tuned to, there is no way to change it without another remote.

Oddly enough, the boxes without displays on them, while they are really nice to us, are REALLY slow movers, as your average Joe Six-pack expects to see a clock above/below their TV, and they are returning the boxes that dont have it..

HP TouchSmart airport kiosk hands-on {Engadget}

Apr 1st 2009 2:44PM Because Midway does not have nearly the number of travelers passing though it than O'Hare has.

I make a point of NOT flying though Midway, because to me, it seems like a crappy dirty, hole in the wall, airport. O'Hare is much brighter, cleaner, and just more inviting.

Apr 1st 2009 2:42PM Ah, I see.. the snippet says they are in Terminal 1, that would be why I haven't noticed them. I will have to be sure to check them out when I get there again. Thanks!

Apr 1st 2009 9:23AM Where are these? I was just at O'Hare a few weeks ago, and I did not notice any of these. Are there any in Concourse B or C, as I should be traveling thru there again very soon, and I would like to check one out..

MSI rolls out R4600 HDMI GPU series for HTPC builders {Engadget}

Mar 21st 2009 9:17PM Not really sure why this is front page newsworthy.... There are bunches of HD46x0 cards out there with native HDMI... I bought a Gigabyte GV-R467D3-512I just last week for $50 AR.. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125244

OPPO BDP-83 universal Blu-ray player hands-on {Engadget HD}

Mar 20th 2009 11:33PM Yea, we don't really need 42 pictures of a BD player.. This is almost as bad as the Mac Pro unboxing, with 5 shots of the southbridge.. this one has 6 shots of the back panel alone, half of which are out of focus, and the others at annoying angles.
