Just wanted to say, nice move to Engadget, that's decent. Should be a decent move.
Just wanted to vent about/complain about a few things.
1) Growing the broswer width, to it's minimum to remove the bottom slider bar, the ads/sections listing, etc on the right are LARGER than the content. That's just plain wrong.
2) The "biggie" pics...find a better image compression routine, please...the large images are pretty, sure, but when viewing in a smaller window they get Jaggie and kinda ugly...I'm a fan of a crisp image, especially when reading about HD, I mean, come on! Reviews of a TV, and the picture has Moire effects on the speakers, the edges are Jaggy and the image on the set is distorted...not cool. I'm not impressed with the outcome of that technology. (Not to pimp a friends ideas, so, I won't mention names, but he developed a way of determining bandwidth automatically and sending "the right" webpage to a person based on that. I'm sure an image could be better processed to a few sizes and automatically fed to people based on the size. Would be better than this dynamic resizing, IMHO).
3) This may just be a side effect of the biggie images, but I tend to use my google personal homepage with their reader on it, and all of a sudden your pop-up bubbles are huge and a scroll bar is introduced within the bubble, and sometimes it's just the text. Check your XML coding, maybe? They used to fill about a third of the screen with no scroll bars (easy reading) now they're a mess.
The Galaxy Tab 10.1, much like its Limited Edition sibling that we reviewed last month, is ever-so-slightly thinner than the iPad 2, a slate that most sane individuals (and competitors, for that matter) would confess is the market leader today.

Thanks and end of rant.
