ST-Ericsson's U8500 platform gives your next smartphone wicked 3D powers
It's one thing for ARM to develop a potent GPU meant to add impressive 3D capabilities to devices that were previously forced to run the likes of "Snake," but it's another thing entirely to see a platform and semiconductor company come forward and take it one step closer to the mainstream. S...
ASUS retools Eee Keyboard, swaps in capacitive touchscreen
At this point, we're beginning to wonder if we'll ever see ASUS' Eee Keyboard on store shelves. Heck, we've even see it drop by the all-knowing FCC, yet the company has apparently delayed the official debut once more. The kids over at Register Hardware were able to sit down with a tweaked vers...
Verizon looking to bump early termination fee to $350 on 'advanced' devices

iPhone 三小新闻... (4 回應)
最后一件事，则是一件『iPhone 是我的，谁都不准用！我说了算！』的经典案例；根据 Macworld 主编 Jason Snell 在 twitter 上面的留言，他最近要上架的 iPhone 相关电子书，居然被退件，原因是因为他用了『iPhone』这个字眼，从苹果的角度来看，好像有点理由，毕竟是你家的商标、你家的店，你不给用，好像还说的过去，不过听说另一个人写的电子书，也就是传说中的大宝哥（David Pogue）的书，就可以安全上架，那这标准究竟在哪里呢？ App Store 耶！很意外吗？

Dutch hacker seeks out jailbroken iPhones for fame and fortune

TomTom Car Kit for iPhone review
Boy, TomTom sure has chosen the worst possible time to release its Car Kit for iPhone, and to make matters worse, its decision to not include the iPhone app is now set in stone. That's right, the hardware alone will set you back the cost of a TomTom ONE nowadays, and the $99.95 app works on the iPh...
Nokia vs. Apple: the in-depth analysis

iPhone 3G S review
If it ain't broke, don't fix it -- right?

Pogoplug review
When we first caught wind of the Pogoplug -- a small box that essentially lets you turn any USB hard drive (and drives only) into a network device -- we were pretty darn excited. Having a house full of disparate storage boxes and no easy way to connect to them made the prospect of the 'plug seem v...

Skype for iPhone coming soon?
We're still filing this away in the rumor folder for now, but we'll be honest -- this is totally believable.

T-Mobile G1 review
It's hard to believe, but rumors of a "Googlephone" have been floating around since 2006. To put it in perspective, the first Gphone post on Engadget was written by Peter Rojas. Needless to say, it's been a long, slow ride to get to Android, the Open Handset Alliance, and ultimately the T-Mob...

iPhone 2.1 update: the aftermath
Excluding those of you who don't know where you are, our poll on claimed reception improvements in 2.1 suggests that the majority of iPhone 3G owners (by a slim margin) are seeing no improvement or -- gasp! -- a degradation in signal strength since 2.0.2.Given that 2.1 patches up some bugs with t...

The word is out, kids. Adobe has apparently gone against old Jobsy's wishes, and it's planning a Flash player made all special for the iPhone (ala Windows Mobile) despite Apple's concerns that the technology -- in its current incarnation, anyway -- isn't cut out for mobile duty. During a co...
