Today I felt pretty good overall, although I was a little spacey in the middle of the day. This could have happened because I had so many sweet juices and not as many greens today.
Today’s Juices
pineapple, coconut water, raspberry
cantaloupe
Master Cleanser
carrot, celery, green leaf lettuce
I drank about 1.2 gallons total.
Juice #1 was super sweet but really [...]

Oh RIM, why must you torture us? Just when we’d moved beyond our nightly dreams of the Javelin and had our sights set on a Bold, here you go reminding us of just how luscious the next-generation Curve looks to be. Sure, the omission of 3G makes us none too happy, but it’s hard to kvetch about the design. The Boy Genius managed to get his paws around one of the forthcoming BlackBerry Curve 8900s, and his initial impressions are almost universally positive. He’s totally digging the size, the screen, the keyboard and even the bezel. That’s right, the bezel. Check the read link to see what the fuss is all about.

Our favorite robot-obessed entity on these fine internets, RobotsRules, has put out a fairly disturbing video entitled “Vadersapien” as a purported followup to last year’s “Elmosapien.” What at first might be perceived as a harmless way to enjoy halloween with robots and bit of Vadery goodness quickly devolves into the dark exploration of a mind turned sour by the constant companionship of robots. We’re positive [insert name of favorite sci-fi novelist] tried to warn us of this day, but there’s really no preparing for a product of so much psychological disruption. It’s after the break, of course.

Microsoft’s newest Zunes (along with the 3.0 software) have been out for well over a month now, which means you’ve had ample opportunity to really test one out and form some educated opinions. Now, it’s time to open up and let loose. Are you still down with the design? Do you appreciate the extras that came with three point oh? What else could’ve been added to really spice things up? Do us a favor and tell the suits in Redmond what you would’ve done differently, and moreover, how things can be made better the next time it feels the itch to bust out a software update.
How would you change Microsoft’s new Zunes / v3.0 software? originally appeared on Engadget on Fri, 31 Oct 2008 22:30:00 EST. Please see our terms for use of feeds.

The new MacBook Air has landed, and folks all over are recording their impressions of the slightly-revamped ultraportable. Obviously there’s very little to note externally, with the same packaging and design to the computer — the only real difference is the new mini DisplayPort plug to replace that totally oddball microDVI plug. What’s much more exciting is what’s under the hood, namely integrated graphics (NVIDIA 9400M) with enough juice to, say, play back a YouTube video without overheating the computer to a point of non-usability. Shocking, we know. Booting is a snap (25 seconds in informal testing) with that new 128GB SSD, the computer runs cool and core-shut-down-free, can handle full HD video, and outputs to external monitors without a problem. Apple really hamstrung an otherwise interesting computer in the original Air with a criminal lack of power and cooling, and we’re happy to report that they seem to have righted those wrongs — though MacBook Air 1.0 owners still have little recourse, unless you count a $1,799 “upgrade” as a viable move. Hit the read link some more impressions, or peep the unboxing gallery below, courtesy of Engadget pal Sam.
