  2. Talk about a dupe... would this be tripe? by karmaflux · · Score: -1, Redundant

    I liked this story better when it was covered the first and second times.

    Although, I can understand why this error gets made, because the search function built-in to slashcode is nearly worthless. Try googling site:slashdot.org "tactile digital assistant" and you'll find previous coverage... from last year.

  3. For the sake of duping, by bugbeak · · Score: -1, Redundant

    While we're duping, let me dupe someone else's COMMENT: (sing along with the Pink Panther theme) Du-dupe du-dupe, du-dupe, du-dupe du-dupe du-dupe du-dupe du-duuuuuuuuuuuuupe dudududupe!

    You're right... slashdot should have featured at least 4 articles on it by now. I'm sure they'll make up for it in the coming days.

  5. The article/topic's not at all interesting. by wild_berry · · Score: -1, Redundant

    (b/c it seems like vapourware) So I will pick up on your duping: I suspect that your "dudududupe!" lacks a 'du' before it.

    I know I've just said that twice; I thought it was sufficiently important that I say it twice.

    Whilst engadget rules, and usually has news a few days before slashdot, it's not like this thing is new to anyone, slashdot included. The reason for this story is that this article is supposed to be a review, whereas all the information about it before was marketing information from the manufacturer.

    The funny thing is that in this instance, /. actually beat Engadget to the punch, posting its story on 12. July, Engadget on the 13th.
