Charter sends contest winner two smaller TVs, plays "miscommunication" card {Engadget HD}
Jul 9th 2008 2:02PM I don't know how they can claim it's a miscommunication. The Charter web site touting the 65-inch prize is still there!
DISH Network drops 10 of 15 VOOM HD channels {Engadget HD}
May 13th 2008 10:20AM No one seems to have a list of which Voom channels are gone, and I no longer have DISH to check. A couple of their programs, including the travel features and concerts in HD, were some of the best stuff on DISH HD when I had it. I miss those now that I'm on cable.
ZeeVee's ZvBox streams your PC to your HDTV over coax {Engadget HD}
May 1st 2008 8:25AM VGA seems kinda limiting, though. I suppose there's only so much screen resolution you're going to pack into what I assume is an analog NTSC video signal on the cable. I don't think the Apple TV or anything else that would connect to your set via HDMI has anything to worry about.
Verizon whines to FCC: make it easier for us to gain market share {Engadget HD}
Mar 26th 2008 1:37PM Well, since the consumer can sit back and let cellular providers call up the landline companies (i.e. Verizon) to handle that cancellation, it's only fair that the landline companies be allowed to convey the similar bad news to the cable companies. :-)
I would totally jump to FiOS given the chance. I don't like paying Time Warner when I can avoid it, but at the moment, I can't avoid it.
Happy birthday: take a trip in America's largest flying gadget (part 1) {Engadget}
Mar 25th 2008 1:01PM Happy birthday! Thanks for the contest.
Little old lady suing Sony, Samsung, Nokia and everyone else for infringing on her laser patents {Engadget HD}
Mar 21st 2008 9:19AM Look at it this way. In the generic sense, a Blu-ray Disc player is a high-definition DVD player, so the quoted phrase above is reasonable. They could have spelled out "high-definition" as I did, but they used the well-understood shorthand. Never mind that "HD-DVD" is a specific trademark for a failed technology; they know as well as we do that it's dead and isn't relevant to the discussion. :-)
Yamaha beefs up AV receiver line with five newcomers {Engadget HD}
Feb 25th 2008 11:45PM How crazy that there are only two HDMI inputs on all but the $1,000 unit! These would be great if I didn't ever plan on adding a Blu-ray Disc player...
Verizon running low on FiOS TV HD boxes? {Engadget HD}
Feb 6th 2008 10:36AM JJG has the right idea! My parents are happy with their FIOS TV and TiVo HD!
