Carmack blows minds with id Software's Rage, running on iPhone at 60fps with 'megatextured' graphics (video)
Aug 12th 2010 10:02PM (Engadget)Tell that to anyone with a 2g iphone.
Verizon says original Droid 'doesn't have the hardware' to support a mobile hotspot
Aug 2nd 2010 3:11PM (Engadget)Name me one carrier anywhere that gives you tethering without charging extra for it.
Unofficial tethering solutions(IE wifi tether, easytether, pdanet, etc) don't count.
The only way I've ever gotten tethering for free, from any carrier, is by doing things that are most likely terms of service violations.
I'm not saying that Verizon is justified in saying this, as it's clearly not true, or at least not a whole truth, but like it or not, carriers will charge for tethering for as long as they can, because it's a feature that costs them more money.
Once I started tethering my data usage went up by between two and five times, and I was already a heavy data user.
Verizon says original Droid 'doesn't have the hardware' to support a mobile hotspot
Aug 2nd 2010 12:47PM (Engadget)There's the possibility that what they mean is the droid can't create a "genuine" wifi network, as what all the rooted ones are doing is creating an adhoc wireless network. But I could be wrong.
BlackBerry 6's WebKit-based browser bests the competition in a good 'ol standards showdown
Jul 20th 2010 1:04PM (Engadget)It's a standards test, not a speed test.
A good score merely indicates that a browser supports a lot of HTML5 features. It could do so yet also be very slow.
However, a browser doing very badly at this test would be a good reason to ridicule it, especially if it's a browser like IE that's also just not very fast.
Palm Pre hits 1.2GHz courtesy of SR71 Blackbird kernel, not for the faint-hearted
Jul 20th 2010 2:05AM (Engadget)Maybe some. Mine never did. Ran 1.3ghz just fine.
Palm Pre hits 1.2GHz courtesy of SR71 Blackbird kernel, not for the faint-hearted
Jul 20th 2010 12:53AM (Engadget)It's just taking the Pre longer because it has 1/10th the hackers, so it seems more impressive.

Jun 15th 2010 4:39PM (Engadget)When you blow a 3.5 inch screen of a portable gaming system up to a 25 foot projector screen, you're right, that does look bad!
What were they thinking?
Try setting your monitor down to 320x240 for an equivalent effect. But you know what, that was standard for a 3" phone screen for some time.
