WIND Mobile launches in Canada, T-Mobile gets a spectrum buddy (Engadget)

Dec 16th 2009 10:34PM Until they start covering Muskoka and other parts of cottage country I don't think this will be viable for my family. However, I am very much impressed by the idea of free province wide calling from WIND's HOME zone even if the HOME zone is still too small. Rogers charges long distance even when you're still on their network. A pain when you're away at school.

iPhone headed to Telus and Bell's fancy new HSPA networks next month? (Engadget)

Oct 5th 2009 10:30PM Competition for one phone? Hooray for the Canadian Duopoly.

Synaptics shows off new MacBook-style "ClickPad" multitouch trackpads for netbooks (Engadget)

Jun 2nd 2009 9:42PM IIRC, if it's like the Macbook you simply click with two fingers at the same time.

Mar 25th 2008 10:30PM You may be able to fit a sound card and a phys-x card in between, but damn skippy will you need some cooling help.

Hummer H3 converted into remote controlled vehicle (Engadget)

Mar 18th 2008 5:58PM I think I found a related story via Google:

It was probably inevitable.

Saddam's yacht: the perfect holiday gift (Engadget)

Dec 23rd 2007 11:05AM IIRC, the legend only applies to the person who renames a ship, so theoretically it's only bad luck for the seller, not the purchaser. Bid away!

Man files antitrust lawsuit over printer ink (Engadget)

Dec 18th 2007 11:19PM Probably not, our brother has been printing great for the last 8 months with the low toner alerts, an thats with the trial toner. Then again we don't do mery much volume in printing.

Cologne firemen make haste in rescuing crash test dummies (Engadget)

Dec 11th 2007 3:39PM If I were responding to this, and realized that the crash was inside a crash test facility, I'd probably start thinking "man, isn't this ironic."

PSA: Crocs aren't just ugly, they're dangerous (Engadget)

Sep 10th 2007 5:42PM Tney're damn comfortable and great as boat/cottage shoes, I love mine but I avoid wearing them in the city where I may encounter other people.

Cryptography Research looking to curb ink cartridge piracy (Engadget)

Jul 3rd 2007 12:37AM Ink prices are outrageous. Me and my father have a hoard of Canon Pixma ip4000 printers we got off eBay when they were discontinued, specifically because we can replace all 5 ink tanks for like $15 CAD. Even though the cartridges are clearly 3rd party, the print quality is still pretty darn good.

The greatest device we ever bought however is our b&w laser printer. Two years later and numerous pages printed, and my family still hasn't exhausted the original toner. The funny thing is the "replace toner" light has been on for about five months now.
