Loss of Wi-Fi connectivity plagues the iPhone 3G as well

Jul 13th 2009 9:36AM on The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW)

I have no issues with my iPhone 3g. My home router is running DD-WRT, so wouldn't this be showing how poorly written most router firmwares are?

WiFiFoFum (or similar apps) are essential for getting the wlan on a channel without major interference. Simple stuff.

Microsoft prepping component to HDMI adapter?

why would the quality degrade? it's trancoding!

digital is not automagically better than analog for video signals, it depends on many variables (mostly interference and the quality of adc/dacs used in the display and source).

Sony prepping an 80GB PS3, almost keeping up with the Jonses

you do realise that native and scaled 1080p isn't that different; it's just texture sizes. i'm also curious, how big your screen is for you to see the difference between 720p and 1080p.

my projector (optoma) is pointed at 106" screen, and from about 10' i see no difference. i can't even tell a difference from as far away as i can get (about 16').

rfom, the xbox team and the windows team are drastically different in age, approach to their product and general quality.

Survey points to Blu-ray negativity, attributed to Sony's "heavy handed" approach

Dec 11th 2006 12:47PM on Engadget HD

the only difference between hddvd and bluray is the distance the laser spaces the data. same codecs. same quality.

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"What is the best wireless surround sound speaker solution? I have a home theater where running wires is just not feasible. I have my own speakers, so I don't want a system that has speakers with integrated wireless. I've done a far amount of research and have only come across a few companies that even offer a reasonable solution: KEF, Kenwood and Rocketfish. Is there anything else out there? What do you recommend? Thank you!"
