The percentage of returned gadgets that have nothing wrong with them.

Now that we've thrown 'em off the trail, use the form below to get in touch with the people at Engadget. Please fill in all of the required fields because they're required.
Unfortunately, I don't see how anyone can view EngadgetHD as unbiased. Even in their podcast, they're publicly stated that they support BD, and their incessant bashing of HD DVD players, stores, and supporters in their "summaries" is infuriating. Yet as I type this I see a Flash-based, HD DVD advertisement. If the HD DVD people bothered to read EngadgetHD they're never buy another bit of advertising space again.
EngadgetHD can no longer be taken seriously by anyone who is looking for any kind of objective, HD information.
Just because I don't think this is big news doesn't make me biased, if you want HD DVD biased news you'll have to go somewhere else.
Also, I am a self proclaimed Blu-ray supporter, but that doesn't mean the entire site is biased either. If I did display bias, the editor in chief would deal with me. Just for the record, I've been accused in the comments of being HD DVD biased before too.
As for HD DVD, they (promotions group) read the site, they've even been on the podcast (not sure if they listen). They know where we stand and they know me by my first name basis when I stop by their booth at trade shows. They haven't once said I was biased.
