The Simpsons mocks (m)Apple (120)
on
Engadget (323) permalink
Few have been spared the satire of Matt Groening's long running animated sitcom. Last night, The Simpsons took on Apple, or uh, Mapple for a full 6 minutes of lampoonery -- a pretty harsh ride at a two-joke per minute pace. It all starts when the Springfield mall gets its very own Mapple store, "it's so sterile," gasps Lisa upon entering. Perhaps the best exchange comes from Bart's dubbing of a Steve Mobs' product announcement ...Shared by Adam Bell (1) Akeem Williams (1) Alex (1) amartin (1) Andrew Acomb (13) Asfaq (3) ax0n (24) barryborsboom (1) bbx (3) Ben (2) Ben (20) ben saitz (1) Bill (3) Bill Foecke (1) binarybiscuit (1) Brad Nadler (7) Bradley Askew (2) Brandon Wood (1) Brian Schwartz (1) Brian Veverka (4) Caleb Brown (9) Charbarred (6) Charles Balazs (19) Charlie (3) Chris Charabaruk (5) Chris Nixon (9) Christophe Maximin (3) Christopher Infante (4) cKdisco (9) Conrad (1) CoreyC (12) Dan (1) Darren Pearson (1) David de Niese (2) David Fisher (1) Dean Cruse (1) Dee (1) Demi Pietchell (9) Dennis Gonzales (2) Derek (1) Eduo (6) Elvis (4) Erica Baker (5) Erwin Tang Yew Hon (25) FG (1) FunkydoryStokie (1) G.

SheeEttin writes "If you've been longing to play games from Steam on your Linux machine, you may not have to wait much longer — the Left 4 Dead demo includes some Linux libraries, in particular, one named 'steamclient_linux.so.' While the game's full release does not include these libraries, their apparently accidental inclusion in the demo suggests that Steam games will have native Linux clients in the near future.

Motorola cancels RAZR3 / Ruby, era comes closer to an end (5)

Engadget Mobile (11) permalink
Filed under: Handsets, Motorola Earlier this month, the almighty RAZR fell from the top spot as America's best selling handset. Now, we're finding that the RAZR3 / Ruby has been canned. Granted, the move isn't all that surprising -- after all, Moto's known for awhile now that it simply can't keep tweaking the RAZR instead of, you know, innovating. But honestly, if this signals that the company is serious about moving forward and possibly adopting ...Contribute comment -

China's Qi i6 supports Android, Windows Mobile, lust in one package (5)
onFor now, Android's got about as much enterprise support as a Sidekick (well okay, a little more, but not much) -- so that's got to be keeping G1s out of the hands of throngs who are too tied-down to Exchange, Notes, or some equally stuffy piece of server-side software to be able to make the switch.

The Android developer community have been busy working on bringing auto-rotation functionality to the G1, and judging by the video footage below they’ve done a great job. With compass mode and Streetview proving the G1 is certainly well equipped when it comes to accelerometers, the ability to auto rotate the display is a feature that the G1 has lacked. http://www.youtub...

Nokia Quake III gains on-phone server, Bluetooth keyboard and mouse support (6)

18% of Consumers Can't Tell HD From SD (14)
