HP Mini 5101 netbook approved for use by mini executives

Jul 24th 2009 6:03PM on Engadget

> That looks like Macbook's keyboard, down to the exact font.

Exactly so! I was thinking if a black MacBook got shrunk in the dryer, it would look just like this HP netbook.

Mac drivers for Clearwire WiMAX coming in August, Linux DIY code to follow

Jul 22nd 2009 9:05PM on Engadget

It's actually pretty smart. Clearwire taps into the huge crowd of software developers in the Linux community. The Linux guys may put improvements into Clearwire's open source driver, and depending on the open source license, Clearwire may re-incorporate those improvements back into their Windows and Mac drivers.

Netflix issuing 10% credit to make amends for downtime?

Two of my movies were delayed a day, and I was given a 5% credit. Why didn't everyone get a 10% credit? Argh.

InFocus 1080p DLP Play Big IN83 projector gets official

Mar 11th 2008 7:38PM on Engadget HD

Only one HDMI port?!? Come on, for $6k why not add a second HDMI port?

Also, this is a single-chip DLP projector. How bad will the dreaded DLP "rainbow effect" be? Hopefully it has a fast color wheel...

Former LG employee leaks $1b in top secret plasma info to Chinese manufacturer

Mar 5th 2008 8:24PM on Engadget HD

This question doesn't answer the truly important question: "Will the Chinese firm pass the R&D savings along to us, the consumers, when their cheap Chinese plasmas start showing up at the nearest Wal*Mart?" :)

Sony BDR-S350 and S550 profile 2.0 player hands-ons

Feb 26th 2008 7:44PM on Engadget HD

Agreed, $199 is the magic price point where the average guy on the street will buy a player.

The current $400 is way too expensive considering that BD has been out almost two years, not to mention that BD discs are still like $35 each at retail.

Sony is going to mine the deeper pockets of the early adopter crowd for a while yet before dropping the player & disc prices to a level the rest of us can afford.

You could buy Blu-ray players and discs in June 06. It's now almost March 08. Therefore, Blu-ray has been on sale for almost two years now.

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I am looking for a device that will stream sound from one source to several recipients. For example, I want to stream sound from my TV or stereo to my phone or MP3 player that has radio and Bluetooth capabilities. I have looked into radio transmitters and they seem like a decent choice, but I can't find one that uses external power (USB or from the plug) and I would want one with a transmit range of around 50 meters. Thanks!"
