Motorola Droid's website published a bit early, with specs galore {Engadget Mobile}
Oct 23rd 2009 12:07AM Anyone know if it's a capacitive or resistive touch screen? I'm sure it's probably resistive, but one can dream...
Poll: What's the worst mistake HD channels make? {Engadget HD}
Aug 9th 2009 2:20PM Personally, I give Fox props for at least TRYING to fill our 16:9 screen unaltered video. That is, even if it's not in HD, it at least doesn't stretch or have black bars. It may not be 720 resolution, but I'm satisfied enough.

Verizon announces Samsung Omnia for $249.99 {Engadget Mobile}
Nov 25th 2008 9:59AM I agree I would have liked to see a better resolution screen. However, this phone appears to be everything else I would want out of a phone, including being thin, and since there's no sign of the Touch Diamond anywhere, and I've been holding out for a new phone since March, I may just jump once I can test this out in-store!
HTC Touch Pro breaks free on Verizon {Engadget Mobile}
Nov 24th 2008 10:01AM I can confirm a price when I log in a price of $289.99. However, it's not explicitly clear if that includes my NE2, nor does it mention the rebate.
Verizon's Touch Pro gets HTC-style introduction {Engadget Mobile}
Nov 23rd 2008 5:08PM The bigger question to me is where is the Touch Diamond? I remember hearing that was going to come out for Verizon first. With the lack of rumors or anything on HTC's website, I'm starting to think all they will get is the Touch Pro. If that's the case, I'm highly disappointed.
Memorex MVBD-2510 Blu-ray player hits $139.99 (but not for long) {Engadget}
Nov 17th 2008 2:21AM I certainly already have the ability to play DVDs. If that were the issue, I certainly wouldn't buy a blu-ray player. The whole point of blu-ray is HD. So, if the selection of HD is small compared to DVDs, I'm going to wait.

Nov 17th 2008 2:19AM Oh no, I got the number wrong! The point is, compared to DVD, the selection sucks!

Nov 17th 2008 1:51AM See, this is what gets me about blu-ray. Everyone talks about players reaching a PRICE threshold. I think you are always forgetting to mention the QUANTITY threshold. I wouldn't care about buying a blu-ray player at $50 or $250. What matters to me is the fact that there are only 500+ titles out there!
Let's get real. Assuming you had access to rent all 500+ titles (Netflix, etc) there are always invariably going to be titles/generes you don't want to see. So I mean, why would I go to buy a player when the selection sucks? I find tons of movies on HD television, and the only premium one I get is HBO. And even then, most of the blu-ray coming out are movies that were recently out, so I've seen them anyway.
I say, once you start lookingat blu-ray with 5,000+ titles, including TV shows and older movies (80s and before) that I wouldn't mind revisiting for the HD quality, then let me know (and I'm sure players will be even cheaper then, lol).
