Im getting tired of that S***...and if you read the comments on engadget people notice that too...they are also saying they are surprised some website hasn't seen it and flamed them already. If im not too lazy ill screen shot the polls then like the next morning/3 hours ill scree shot again or something.

ok there us definitely something fishy going on.This is the second time this had happened, I hope they find out what the deal is because it doesn't make sense.

yeah it's odd...it's not like there is a 1,200 vote jump or 1,700 its always 2,000.

Too funny.

They keep moving the goalposts on us.

It doesn't take a genius to realize that Engadget is in on the vote fixing.

Any competent site would have locked it down to a single vote per IP address. Sure, it's still possible to get around that with proxies or by changing your MAC address, but it's not going to be as efficient or quick as clearing your cookies, or just disabling cookies altogether.

What's going to happen:

Contest ends. Engadget claims that Motorola Droid cheated and Zune HD cheated, and that all iPhone/Apple votes were legitimate. I don't doubt that people have cheated while voting for the Droid. I'm sure some did. And even as a Zune HD fan myself, I don't think the Zune had 9211 fans worldwide, which is what it's vote count is currently at. It's keeping up better with the iPod Touch 3G than the Droid is with the iPhone. That is clearly some vote fraud. And then, of course, it's pretty obvious that the iPhone votes are illegitimate.

How to ensure your beloved iPhone still wins, Engadget style:

1. Make it easy to cheat, but say you'll examine the results for signs of cheating.
2. Cheat and vote for iPhone/let people cheat for iPhone.
3. Come out and say that anything but the iPhone cheated. Offer no proof. But who cares? Your beloved iPhone won.
4. ?????
5. Profit.

Engadget just needs to be internet nuked. This bull**** is getting a little old.

This would make a good topic " how can the Droid be losing?" With a referance to the Endgadget site.

I'm just saying it would make for a good topic. Not that anyone here wants to talk about it

Screw endgaget, Droid was the #1 gadget according to time magazine for 2009. IPhone finished 4th.

I love congratulating iPhone users for finishing in Time's top 5 gadget of the year. Childish, but funny.
