  1. I'd feel somewhat, sort of bad, if I had any slight inkling that this had actually existed in the first place.
  2. One un-attainable super car belonging to the luxury brand, and fifteen iterations of a vehicle that isn't even on sale yet do not qualify as 'sportiness,' nor can said sportiness be 'back' if it's not there to begin with. /douchebaggery.
  3. You're thinking a Nomad/HHR style vehicle to compete with Mini? It'd be nice if Chevy debuted a vehicle like the Kappa Nomad, though I'm not sure the perceived sacrifices regarding interior space would be appealing.

  5. Why? Nothing telegraphs "lost cause" like such a takeover. Has that ever worked, anywhere? Saab's toast. Actually it has, though in different industries; ones which are far less complicated than an automaker. I doubt even dedicated employees would be able to weather the supply-management/advertising/investment shoring needs of SAAB for long.

  7. A Japanese manufacturer's French corporate owner is sourcing the platforms and engines from a German rival?
  8. Happy Birthday!
  9. Ok, apparently one Android team is out because they have the teamwork/social skills of eight year olds. IRC is serious business. [08/23/2011 -:- 10:58:13 PM] trsohmers: The team has had a lot of drama over the last two days [08/23/2011 -:- 10:58:39 PM] trsohmers: Because of rhcp and a lot of things [08/23/2011 -:- 10:58:56 PM] trsohmers: Rhcp left today and took the github with him [08/23/2011 -:- 11:01:39 PM] BarronThe: and when you say you're leaving touchdroid, you mean the 'team' or the effort altogether? [08/23/2011 -:- 11:02:05 PM] trsohmers: GUYS [08/23/2011 -:- 11:02:29 PM] trsohmers: We have a booting kernel [08/23/2011 -:- 11:02:32 PM] trsohmers: thats about it [08/23/2011 -:- 11:02:42 PM] trsohmers: only 3 of us had touchpads… not much work was done [08/23/2011 -:- 11:03:47 PM] trsohmers: So guys, I wouldn't expect much from Touchdroid [08/23/2011 -:- 11:03:53 PM] trsohmers: or whatever new team forms out of this [08/23/2011 -:- 11:03:56 PM] trsohmers: sorry to say
  10. Thanks guys! I just spent the day on the golf course with some buds, and plenty of suds. Nothing spectacular for this old fart.
  11. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16835905&postcount=170 Looks like the odds for that happening are really good.
  12. Yeah, they're going fast. However, you might get lucky if you keep an eye out on places like: Online: Newegg <a href="http://www.amazon.com/s?ie=UTF8&x=0&ref_=nb_sb_noss&y=0&field-keywords=hp%20touchpad&url=search-alias%3Daps#?_encoding=UTF8&tag=cheeandgear-20&linkCode=ur2&camp=1789&creative=390957">HP Touchpad on Amazon</a><img src="https://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=cheeandgear-20&l=ur2&o=1" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" /> TigerDirect Brick&Mortar: CompUSA Kmart.com Sears These places haven't lowered their prices yet. When they will, is the question.
  13. HP is exiting the hardware business, and its iPad competitor is a massive flop. Just over a month and a half after the 'Touchpad's' release, HP is ordering that retailers liquidate it. http://www.walmart.com/ip/HP-FB355UA-ABA/16662273 http://www.walmart.com/ip/HP-FB359UA-ABA/16662279 Some retailers online have yet to drop their prices. If you keep an eagle-eye out, and do your research, you should be able snag one. The device itself isn't that terrific and WebOS is no Android. But for $99, you're getting a pretty good deal. Naturally, there's potential warranty and support issues.
  14. You're discussing top-speeds in a thread about electric cars? Dear God, have you lost sight of the entire purpose of the Voltec architecture?
  15. Isn't corner-cutting generally a hallmark OF Hyundai/Kia? They've just gotten better at hiding it.
  16. Apparently I can post in locked threads. Therefore, I am using my new-found moderation privileges in an entirely appropriate manner.
  17. This car is special. It deserves a real name, and not some sort of 'acronym.' However, I'm thrilled to see this being slated for production. Old news.... Yeah but so is the Cimarron, and Catera and we've yet to stop hearing about those vehicles in reviews, articles, blogs, comment sections, and certain C&G members' posts.

  19. The riots in England summed up in one gif:

    Pictures!

    Swordfish is quite hirsute! BUT A CHALLENGER APPEARS!! She snuck up on me. I wasn't too thrilled.
  21. The future is friendly in Deus Ex: HR!
  22. Old School meets High Tech. Fast, efficient and purely meant to be driven as hard as possible.
  23. I finally got Facebook! Add me, or I will be super depressed! http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100002754498386
  24. Oh wow. Hotlinking rules just ruin the internet.
