If I remember correctly, the minimum recharge amount is $5, and you can only add money to the wallet in $5 increments.
However, if you just add a $8.99 item to the shopping cart, and then go to checkout, it charges you the exact amount (unless it's less than $5).
The $200 Revo is single core. For a fair comparison, you need the $330 Revo.
At that price, The ASRock has 160 GB more HDD, and a DVD drive.
Acer has Win7 and smaller size (maybe less practical depending on where you want to put it).
Would love to have one, but no GSM roaming capability is a dealbreaker for me.
Well actually my DVR was *supposed* to record it, but the POS known as DirecTV HR21 of course failed to do it - even though I had told it to when it said there were conflicting recordings scheduled. God I hate that box!
All they are saying is that the TV is designed with "wall placement" (vægplacering) in mind, while not making the slim frame compromise the sound quality.
Actually, wouldn't it *help* AT&T in most cases?
If you are calling other AT&T customers using it, there is no Mobile-to-Mobile freebies!
The speaker in the Q7 is fantastic.
Because it sits so snug in the ear, you could probably operate a jackhammer and hear people just fine.
As far as people hearing you it's a bit more of a mixed bag. As Engadget said, people will say you sound a bit strange - some think it's a robot clone of you speaking. How you place it in the ear also greatly affects the sound. My ear-canals are apparently fairly big, so I have to be careful placing it, or the "baloon" with the bone-conduction mic doesn't get good contact. If it's not seated right, people can't hear you at all.
The bone-conduction tech, and the no-loop-around-the-ear mount came from Nextlink.
Looks like Motorola basically added th regular microphone based headset to get the best of both worlds.
Of course the Moto designers made a butt-ugly device, but I guess thats what you get with them.
I use my Nextlink Invisio Q7 in a convertible on the freeway, and people just hear a background rumble.
Regular headsets are completely useless in the car!
The tech works. I was one of the few who managed to get a Q7 - it rocks!
Or rather, it rocked. It no longer works, so I am waiting for Moto to release one!
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm looking for a pair of quality headphones that aren't seemingly made of glass. I'm an avid BMXer which causes me to frequently bash on any type of technology that joins me for my daily riding. I've been through the higher quality headsets in the Skullcandy line as these are supposed to be built for "abuse," which is laughable. I cant wear earbuds or canal buds, as my large ears seem to have a repelling property upon anything that sits in them. Wired or Bluetooth doesn't really matter, but I need something that can hold up to taking a few hits every now and again. I'm trying to keep 'em under $150. Thanks!"
