Pioneer BDR-101A Blu-ray burner now available, for just $999 {Engadget}
May 18th 2006 12:01PM I dont think BD burners will really take off until those 50gb BDs come out. 25gb is less than 3x dual layer dvd. So, right now its more of a conveinence (and watching movies) thing rather than a huge increase in storage capacity.
At least they designed recordability into the BD specs from the get-go, so the wait souldnt be that long.
A guide to Joystiq star-whoring {Joystiq}

Balanced blogging my foot. Remember the incessant posts about the name of the Wii when it was revealed. What about the latest fiasco with the 'fake' BD demonstration by Sony?
Toshiba's 12.1-inch Tecra M6 Core Duo-powered laptop {Engadget}
May 17th 2006 1:20PM Apple has a looong way to go before they are a even a bit player in the business PC market. Their automatic 'Apple premium' doesnt go over so when the bottom line is on the line.
Wii will cost $200 say spectators {Joystiq}
May 17th 2006 12:46PM Haha .. its cheaper than the 360 HD-DVD add-on. It also has a smaller form factor and looks a heck of a lot nicer.
Honda: new hybrid, new diesel engine and 2 new plants in N.A. {Autoblog}
May 17th 2006 9:30AM Way to go Honda!
The faster we can replace those GM/Ford plants with Honda/Toyota/Nissan/etc. plants the better.
I would rather have the profits gp to Japan than to UAW cronies and their buddies.

Xbox 360 and HD DVD to drop for under $500? {Engadget}
May 16th 2006 11:56AM An external IDE drive that is only used for HD-DVD movies for the same price (if not more) than the Wii?
No thanks.
I would rather get a Wii for less monies.

Spy Shots: Chrysler Sebring/Dodge Avenger {Autoblog}
May 16th 2006 9:13AM I wonder how well the 300c design themes will play out in the smaller Sebring. What i see doesnt impress.
The 300c is all about presence, SIZE, and bling! This looks too small wimpy to be carrying the same design cues as the 300. And, why are they so cheap as to not paint the side mirror?
100,000 Camaros a year? {Autoblog}
May 15th 2006 3:53PM I wonder what Pontiac dealers are thinking.
Chev has the Corvette and Camaro and Pontiac has the .... Soltice?? ..which it also shares with Saturn.
Im guessing they will make a Firebird rebadged as well.
