  • Cool
  • Hell yeah - Tim Stevens. He was always the coolest person to talk to after an Engadget show.
    He seems like a genuinely nice guy.
  • So this is why he left Engadget?
  • Shame that's not an electric car in the image. lol Not that the most practical Ferrari is a bad thing either.
  • Why did Tim leave engadget?? I thought he would have ended up at the Verge like everyone else...
  • I don't know many details but on Twitter Josh Topolsky made it seem like he was forced out and pretty much got screwed.
