[citation][nom]notuptome2004[/nom]What i think 7amood is trying to say is that almost 99% of the time when Toms post a news article l such as this by the time they posted it most of is or some of us already knows about it because it was posted a week or more earlier on engadget or other tech sites a Week or more earlier being the Key here so Toms is a week or more late at posting the same news[/citation]
I think most of the people are saying the same thing, just in different words. Actually I don't mind if Tom's is bringing up some "old" news a few days later. See, at times I do not have the time or better luxury of time to go around and visit 10 different web sites to read tech news. So it is good for me or people like to visit a single site and get the news from there. Whether I read about the power cord that is going to change the future in 10 years or more... who cares if the news was broken 1 week later? The device is a concept and is not going to hit the market for another decade... do you see my point?
Also regarding a comment further up saying that Tom's is advertising all this as breaking news (in which case I agree it would be not right since other sites have brought the news first), I have not seen Tom's site to advertise any tech news as such. It simply states what is recent and have never characterised any of their news "breaking".
Not taking any sides here, but let's be fair and square.
