It's pronounced "Spu-CHEH-buk"
I have a better way:

1) Rip to hard drive
2) play in media browser

How about including a mobile device support column? I have been looking for a way to stream stuff on my (non-HP) WHS to my iPod touch over WiFi! Firefly has some capability, but it would be great to see a more capable solution. The UPnP solutions in the app store SUCK.
Is it really correct to say that Windows supports Blu-ray "natively"? Windows supports HDCP natively, but decrypting the disk and decoding the video files are done with third party players.

Just thought I would point that out. Regardless, OS X does none of this.
Ben, thanks for the report! This review convinced me. I am holding off until 7 is officially released and when it is, I am building a new system! Any good info on the multi-stream or the Dish tuners?
Considering a single silicon unit cell dimension is 0.543 nm, I don't know that we'll be hitting 0.01 nm anytime soon. I think you guys meant 0.01 MICRON, or 10 nm. That is a node on the roadmap.
And here I was about to finally pull the trigger and buy an iPhone today. I am going to wait.
Tim is right. SPP resonances are EM waves that exist in metal, have somewhat narrow (although engineerable) linewidths and are SUPER lossy and inefficient. Also, since SPP waves obey the diffraction limit just like any other light wave, it is unclear how these researchers would use this phenomenon to do anything ground-breaking in terms of image resolution enhancement. Using surface plasmons for this purpose is NOT a new idea, and has already been proven to be severely limited in application.

Sorry to rain on the parade.
Nice NCSU pictures. Go Pack!
why do they call it the Fuze?
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I need help! I want a small pocket camcorder but I'm not sure which one to get. I don't want to fall into the hype of the Flip because I worry two hours won't be enough. What should I be looking for when considering a small camcorder and where can I get a good quality one with expandable memory? Thanks!"
