@sonnydeejay I was really hoping that using Android in place of Archos' homegrown OS would help the stability somewhat....it's really sad that it doesn't. If these guys could do software with the same skill that they do hardware, Apple would have some real competition on the PMP front.

Anyone know why none of Engadget's embedded Viddler videos work in Firefox 3.5?

@(Unverified) It sounds like you think electric cars are sentient, hoping to accost the unwary at any opportunity.

Regardless, electric cars are certainly loud enough to be heard by anyone with even modest hearing...tire and wind noise are still very present, and those make up the vast majority of noise emitted by a modern car at neighborhood speeds. So, unless the blind guy is also listening to his iPod, he'll hear it. In the end, however, it's the driver's responsibility to not hit the pedestrian.

Of course, if the blind guy IS wearing headphones while trying to cross the street, well, maybe he's trying to be a Darwin Award candidate.

apparently, my comment got truncated. As I was saying...

...a little safer for less than 0.3% of the population. Noise reduction is one of the most-overlooked benefits of moving to non-ICE-powered vehicles.

I cannot believe we'd actually consider artificially inflating noise pollution levels for everyone by making electric cars sound more like ICE cars just to make life a little safer for

@haubey Oh, yeah, well, your phone is...uh...you're so...um...ok, fine, it's a good phone with a good dev community. There...ya happy?

Saw one of these demoed in a Brookstone last Friday. PQ was *horrible*. I'll be interested when they hit netbook screen resolutions.

Hmm...Iron Maiden...iTunes...I think you just made a funny.

Well, in all honesty, they did meet that.

If everyone kept their promises, there'd be no vaporware. And no Duke Nukem Forever jokes.

@willwhitworth, Oh, come on...can't you see that the best platform is the one with tons and tons of apps, even if many of them are idiotic or just badly written? Oh, wait...that would mean Windows instead of OS X.

No, no, you're right...it's all about fewer, more polished apps. Oh, wait, then that doesn't sound like the App Store.

Wow...quite a quandary you've presented for the Apple fanboy...well done, sir.
