iPhone and iPod touch radio app with iTunes store integration on the horizon? {Engadget}
Oct 13th 2009 10:10PM Is it true the iPhone 3GS has the FM radio but not the iPhone 3G? Darn!!!!! That has been my biggest pet peeve - can't listen to the TV radio frequency at gyms since the iPhone/iPod doesn't have a radio. Would really like to just bring my iPhone to the gym and it cover my mp3s, FM radio, an phone.
Engadget's recession antidote: win Radius earphones for iPhone 3G! {Engadget}
May 25th 2009 12:41PM I don't know why I keep bothering to enter these things as I never win anything. My headphones are frayed and need replaced and I would love to replace them with this pair that would work with the iPhone.
New York: Muscled-up 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee will take the stairs, thank you {Autoblog}
Apr 8th 2009 5:37PM Did I read it right that it has ventilated and heated seats (or do they just mean the leather has perforations)? I would LOVE to own a car with a/c seats without having to buy a $70k luxury car. Also like how they seem to be getting away from the chrome/chrome-clad wheels.
Also, nice looking car and a huge improvement from the current except...
- foglights are too high and a horrible shape - should be round foglights at the lower corners.
- headlights are a great shape but needed to be bigger vertically. sort of like how the new lexus rx headlights look too squinty
- that black plastic that is on the lower bumper fascia and side mouldings looks horrible and is a pain to armor all and keep from fading. i know they say the front lower fascia is "removable" but wonder how easily or what it looks like.
- the rear bumper and front corners of black plastic extend far too low
- the pic of the rear interior makes the carpet and rear seat nets and headrest look REALLY cheap. hope that's just the picture and not poor quality materials.
I still think Jeep peaked with the 5.9L 1998 Grand Cherokee. Great color, best wheel design, nice touches (hood vents, cross patterned grill, mostly body color, etc.) I wish the SRT8 model for the 2011 would be a tasteful upgrade and not simply tack on a really low profile bumper treatment and fugly wheels

USF1 Exclusive: The pitch behind the American F1 team {Autoblog}
Feb 4th 2009 8:24PM I'm in Charlotte and didn't know there was a potential F1 team based here. Everything is Nascar around these parts.
Given the economic climate plus the fact that Charlotte is being hit especially hard due to the financial industry I don't see this happening but it would be cool - would give further drive to bring back a US F1 (and the Canadian one too)

First Drive: 2010 Lexus RX350 and RX450h {Autoblog}
Jan 8th 2009 12:12PM Wow that is one of the ugliest interior dashes I've seen in a while. Blegh.
Yet another special-edition Bugatti Veyron spotted in Dubai {Autoblog}
Jan 8th 2009 11:40AM Is this a callback to the EB110? I remember having a diecast EB110 in this same color blue exterior and leather interior.
Except for maybe the rear and 3/4's, I think the Veyron is ugly. Sure it is fast 0-60 and top speed, but it doesn't look that fun to drive/own. I'll pass and take my imaginary $million plus elsewhere.

Jan 5th 2009 7:57PM Now go break in and take pictures of the shrouded banners!!!! :)
btw, most of the banners aren't covered in white cloth as most sites are reporting, they are just folded/doubled over to be easily released/dropped after the keynote.
iLuv's iMM183 dual dock iPod alarm clock also does weather alerts {Engadget}
Jan 5th 2009 7:33PM Why do none of these ipod alarm clock radios have a line-out anymore? I have Klipsch speakers in my bedroom that I'd like to plug-in.
I was interested in the iHome iP99 or iP9 or iH9 for my iPhone but only the iH9 has a line-out and only the other two are shielded for an iPhone. The popular Sony one doesn't have a line-out either.
