Unlocked HTC Touch Pro2 to retail for $880, Touch Diamond2 for $725
by dpr on Apr.16, 2009, under Gadget
HTC’s been pretty coy with pricing on the Touch Pro2 and Touch Diamond2, but now that units are starting to trickle out overseas, the numbers situation is getting slightly clearer. HTC’s just announced that an unlocked Pro2 will set Singaporeans back S$1,328 ($887), while a Diamond2 will hit ‘em up for S$1,088 ($726) — a little more than in Taiwan, but probably close to what we’ll see off-contract in the States. A little rich for our blood, though — let’s hope T-Mobile cleans the goo off soon.

by dpr on Apr.16, 2009, under Gadget

This whole global economic crisis, and its resulting massive loss of jobs got us thinking. We here at Engadget didn’t want to stand helplessly by, announcing every new round of misery without giving anything back — so we decided to take the opportunity to spread a little positivity. We’ll be handing out a new gadget every day (except for weekends) to lucky readers until we run out of stuff / companies stop sending things.

Hooray for free stuff!

The Beatles: Rock Band limited edition bundle priced, detailed
by dpr on Apr.16, 2009, under Gadget
Finally, a few whispers straight from the horse’s mouth. While we’ve heard rumor after rumor regarding the actual hardware to be bundled in with the sure-to-be-hot The Beatles: Rock Band, MTV Games, Harmonix and EA have come forward today with a few succulent tidbits to keep you interested until the 09.09.09 launch. We’re told that the Limited Edition Premium Bundle will include the game itself, a Höfner Bass (which will undoubtedly do Sir Paul McCartney and southpaws the world over no favors by being right handed), a microphone, a microphone stand, undisclosed “additional special content” and the real kicker — a Beatles-inspired and Ludwig-branded Rock Band 2 drums, complete with a classic pearl finish and vintage replica Beatles kick drum head.
The whole kit is slated to launch worldwide this September, with USers having to pay $249, Europeans paying €199 and Britons paying £179. Finally, we’re told that North American and European fans who pre-order any version of the game will be eligible to join the The Beatles: Rock Band Pre-Order Club and “receive breaking news and access to exclusive game elements including art and behind-the-scenes footage directly from MTV Games and Harmonix.” Oh, goody!

Samsung comes clean with self-encrypting SSDs
by dpr on Apr.16, 2009, under Gadget

It seems that Dell jumped the gun a wee bit by shedding some light on Samsung’s forthcoming self-encrypting SSDs, but now Sammy is providing us with all the missing details… er, most of them, anyway. In conjunction with Wave Systems, Samsung is launching what it calls an industry first with its new line of solid state drives. Said devices are able to automatically encrypt information as it’s saved to the drive, and they each come bundled with Wave’s EMBASSY management software. At least initially, these super secure SSDs will ship in 64GB, 128GB and 256GB flavors, and while we’re told that the whole lot is available now “through at least one major OEM,” there’s no specific mention of price. Shocker, we know. The full release is after the break.

Acer AspireRevo: the Ion-infused unboxing
by dpr on Apr.16, 2009, under Gadget
We just tore the packaging off of Acer’s new AspireRevo nettop and dove into its Ion-powered goodness. The computer is in many ways a product of NVIDIA’s designs, since the Ion-powered nettop reference platform has been a part of the Ion ecosystem for a while, and this Revo apple doesn’t fall from the NVIDIA tree. Still, Acer had to go ahead and build the thing, and it’s a pretty great package all-in-all. We’re still in the preliminaries — the HDMI didn’t work out of the gate, but after swapping back and forth a few times with the VGA plug we were in business — and we’re playing with a potentially buggy “engineering sample,” but hopefully we’ll be able to pull together some cohesive impressions on the thing, and play a bit of Spore while we’re at it. It’s already obviously the fastest Atom-powered device we’ve played with, and while it still pretty much chokes on Hulu and that whole “multitasking” concept, we’re pretty pleased so far.

Public rage stalls Time Warner trials of consumption-based internet
by dpr on Apr.16, 2009, under Gadget
Time Warner’s new data capping broadband scheme was never expected to win any popularity contests, and the details of its plans are so frustrating, that this probably should not come as a surprise. Regardless, it looks like the company’s plan to further roll out testing of the consumption-based billing method has been foiled, or at least stalled, because it couldn’t find enough customers to participate in the testing. TWC had planned to test in several loactions, including San Antonio and Austin, Texas, but the response has apparently been so negative, and there were so many complaints, that the company has “delayed” the trials until October. So… maybe if we keep moaning about it the plan will be abandoned altogether? Here’s to hoping, anyway.
