Sorry, Acura Dealers: V8, RWD reportedly dropped for "low-growth period" {Autoblog}
Nov 3rd 2009 3:41AM Acura is delegating themselves to being a small niche player.............no one has taken them seriously for over a decade. Take a look at the RL, I don't care how well it drives, looks, resale or any of that crap, without having a V8 likes the other cars in it's price class it will never compete. As a result you dont see many of them on the road. No one wants at $50K car with a 6 no matter how nice it is. The Acura line up is just a misfit of automobile design that visually proves that Honda has no clear idea of where to place this brand, luxury, near luxury? As for design, other than the clean lines of the S2000, Honda and the Acura stylists continue to make care that are more and more unappealing and dated looking as soon as they hit the showroom. I so wish that they would get some new thinking there and get the brand back on track. They have never been the same since they decided that the Legend name had eclipsed the Acura name and decided to go another route. Camaro, Mustang, M3, Corvette, S-class, 5-series are all names that sell well and people seem to know who makes them!

May 26th 2009 10:56AM did none of you see the back door of the truck swinging open and hitting the passing cars? The door appears to have hooked a car and began to drag it causing the accident. The bicyclists had moved to the side of the rode by that point!

Product review - Kodak Zi6 pocket HD video camera {Gadling}
Oct 27th 2008 4:44AM nzm,
It's time to took a reality pill! The list for the Canon 5 is $2,699 versus $179.99 for the Kodak! Do you think either buyer is interested in the others product with that price discrepancy? The Kodak/flip et cetera is a terrific product for parents or individuals to take quick short video clips that they just want to share with others, not to archive for the ages! For goodness sake.....grandma just wanted to see a one minute clip of her grand daughter walking on the grass, not the next Hollywood epic film!
Goldmund's Eidos 20 BD Blu-ray player costs $17k {Engadget}
Feb 26th 2008 9:15PM For what it is worth, the author of this article might want to do a little homework and know what he is talking about when he writes this type of dribble. Goldmund products are rather well regarded in the real audio community and not a flash in the pan organization. that makes iPod desktop radios or docks like engadget favors. Just because you don't understand a quest for perfection and nor can you afford and are willing to settle for the sonic benefits of mp3 or aac, it does not mean that people with the means don't appreciate someone who is not trying to cut costs at the expense of excellence. Know what you are slamming before you write! It might be of note that most of the Goldmund past products continue to have a residual value some years later.......do you think much of the crap that you write about on a daily basis will have much value 6 months from now? I don't think so.

Officially Official: VW Scirocco a no-go in the U.S. {Autoblog}
Nov 21st 2007 2:04AM Thank goodness for other auto brands who have not forgotten that there is a market for fun, sporty car at an affordable price! VW continues on their confused view of the American car market buyer. Perhaps they have not looked lately at their boring and uninspired cars, not realizing that no one has seen a new Jetta on the roads for a really long time, and decided that the Scirocco just might be too much fun and popular!
