HTC Touch HD2 Review: A Tragedy
Let's just get this out of the way: in terms of hardware, the Touch HD2 is the nicest phone in the world. It's ostentatiously huge and amazingly slim; it's business-savvy and utterly pornographic. But hardware like this deserves better software. More » -

What Netflix On the PS3 Actually Looks Like
The tale of Netflix on the PS3 is sad: It's just now shipping after sitting pretty on the Xbox for more than a year, and to add insult to injury, it comes on a disc. Thankfully, it's slick. More » -

All Of Snow Leopard's Hidden, Secret Settings Laid Bare
Screencap formats, secret dock animations, previously unseen menu shortcuts, login screen backgrounds: These are the hidden settings the Apple doesn't want you to see (or just forgot about) and that Secrets, a free, super-simple app, helpfully wrangles into one place. More » -

Reality Check
Windows 7 rolls past Snow Leopard in just a week, almost everyone still runs XP, and Vista, which didn't even crack 1/3rd of its predecessor's install base, is doomed to be forgotten. This is the world outside Gizmodo, people. [Ars] More » -

Giz Explains: Android, and How It Will Take Over the World
This week we met Motorola's Droid, the first handset with Android 2.0. To an outsider, it just looks like another Google smartphone, but 2.0 is more than that: it's proof that Android is finally going to take over the world. More » -

Intel Hit With a Massive Antitrust Suit, In the US This Time
Remember how Intel got smacked in the face with a $1.45 billion fine in the EU for shadily suffocating AMD into submission? Today, New York's Attorney General has brought the fight to the US. This is going to get messy. More » -

The DSi shatters and fragments, which is more effective at maiming and disabling a target. On the other hand, the N97 remains whole, for greater penetration through tough surfaces. Both, however, are fun to look at. More » -

The Bomb-Sniffing Gadget That's (Definitely Not) Saving Iraq
The promise of the ADE 651 is seductive: a handheld detector, which susses out bombs, guns, drugs, and human bodies from up to a kilometer away. And the Iraqi military swears by it! One problem: It doesn't seem to work. More » -

Disposable Laptop Works Better as a Metaphor Than as an Actual Product
There's no doubt about it: Today, the concept of a disposable laptop is totally ridiculous. But you know what else was ridiculous? Disposable cameras, 60 years ago. And this thing just looks fantastic, so I'll let it slide. Also: symbolism! More » -

Blacksn0w App Now Ready, Eager to Unlock Your iPhone 3G and 3GSes
Blacksn0w, child of overserious shadow-lurker GeoHot and brother of equally straighforward jailbreak app Blackra1n, is now available, and should make unlocking your late-version iPhone 3G or 3GS a dead-simple process. Before you dive in, though, there's one caveat: More » -

First Look at the Apple Stores' New Mutant EasyPay iPod Touches
Since 2005, Apple stores have been ringing up purchases with wireless handheld point-of-sale terminals. This always felt a little odd, partly because you never see a register, but mostly because the devices run Windows. Not anymore! More » -

Chorus for iPhone Puts a Better App Store Inside the App Store
Oh, App Store: You're a chore to navigate, difficult to search, and offer only the most superficial guidance as to which apps are actually good. Chorus—an app recommendation app, as awkward as that sounds—helps cut through the noise. More » -

So It Really Is a "Series of Tubes"
It looks like the cavernous belly of a massive cruise ship, or a "level" in the real-life horror video game that is CERN. In reality, there's a good chance you use these tubes—which belong to Microsoft—every single day. More » -

iPhone Ebooks: The New Fart Apps
A buzzy new report says that iPhone ebook apps are on the rise, and accounted for more new apps in October—nearly a fifth—than even games. It's unexpected and exciting, but what does it mean? Spam, is what. More » -

Confirmed: CERN Is Just a Huge Half-Life Level
Plenty of people have given CERN and Half-Life's Black Mesa research facility the This Thing Looks Like That Thing treatment, but this tour of the facility's deepest bowels is just too much. Steam geysers? Endless corridors? Rusty valves? Slime growths? More » -

Apple and Palm: The iTunes Syncing Fight Is Officially Dumb
OK Palm, it was cute the first time you cracked iTunes to sync with the Pre. And Apple, I guess I can understand why you'd want to keep control over your software. But really guys? Still? You look silly. More » -

How Palm Lost (Like Apple in the '80s)
The Droid, and Android 2.0 as a whole, isn't going to kill the iPhone. That's ridiculous. Teamed with the iPhone, though, it just straight up murdered Palm—the same way that Microsoft brought Apple to its knees decades ago. More » -

Losing Net Neutrality: The Worst Case Scenario
It's alarmist, over-the-top pro-net-neutrality propaganda, sure, but this chart goes a long way to explaining why the IT dude at the office wears that "All Packets are Created Equal" shirt to work every Thursday: because tiered ISPs are scary. More » -
