Conor, are we though? I wouldn’t count it out!

Good luck in your new endeavours and congrats for everything you acheived at engadget. We’re now one step further away from a Block & Rojas podcast and it sad how upsetting I find that.

Does anyone know if Ryan still does or will be doing podcasts?

Sounds like an exciting time for you; good luck. Keep me/everyone posted on the new project. I’d love to hear updates.

Hi Ryan,

I’ve been a fan of what you’ve accomplished at Engadget for such a long time. Just the other day I was going through Engadget archives and came across a post referring to a then forthcoming Blackberry (the 8700 series I believe) as a Treo Killer… Imagine, a time when a “Treo Killer” was a still coveted position, and the Treo was the de-facto smartphone! Well that’s how long I’ve enjoyed Engadget. Thanks for all of the great coverage.

Over the years, I’ve also come to really miss the Podcast, which was so awesome and a highlight for my week just as much as a new episode of Battlestar Galactica. I hope your new project works out well and will satisfy your new goals for your future.

Best Wishes,
Mike Moll

Wow, I come back from vacation (and a week offline) to find Engadget will never be the same! :0)

I think you and Peter have great vision and good business sense, so I predict great things. Keep us informed, and now I have to go cull through the Twitter posts I have missed to see what clues you are dropping!

I’ll miss your work with Engadget (and the podcasts too!). I can honestly say I’ve read engadget every day for the last few years because of you and Peter. You built that shit! Love ya man! hit me up if you’re looking for a graphic/web designer/amature blogger! It would be an honor to help you with your new adventure!

Oh no, that really puts the nail in the coffin as far as me wanting the Engadget Podcast to return :)

Good Luck in the future, looking forward to what you come up with next

Ryan, I wish nothing but the best for you. You’ve clearly done an incredible job at Engadget’s helm, and I have no doubts that whatever venture you jump into, you’ll meet the challenges and succeed. I only wish my application to Engadget didn’t suck and I had a chance to work with you. ;)

Good luck! I’m super-excited to see what’s coming next.

Well, I did move out to SF two years ago, Avi! You’ll be seeing us around, we’re not through with the gadget world yet!

Good luck, Ryan. Hope your new gig keeps you in attendance at all the usual press/analyst events; it’s always fun running into you, and I haven’t seen Peter quite as much since he moved over to the DRK SD. Come to think of it, I haven’t seen you much, lately, either! Where’ve you been?

See you on the other side. Good luck to you and Pete.

Ryan,

Good luck on the new gig. I will miss the witty posts during Macworld hiccups, insanely indepth product reviews, the classiness you showed during Gizmodo’s little IR scandal, and your personal touch to the coverage of CES. I know that the Engadget staff will continue to keep Engadget Enterprises on top of the breaking-news-shiny-things-are-epic-win dept, and can’t wait to see what you have in store.

Best of luck, Ryan. To make a decision like that you must have something awesome in the works, can’t wait to see what you’re up to!

Good luck Ryan. I felt your “non-denial denial” sounded like a non-denial, but regardless i am sad to see you go. If you contribute anything in writing to Engadget, please let it be your in depth reviews. No one, and i mean no one (not Walt, not the Apple guy, no one) can review an item with such depth and clarity as you do. You know exactly every feature as it should work and can spot shortcomings better than anyone. Keep up the good work and an keep rockin in the gadget world.

Congrats. Starting a new venture has to be exciting and nerveracking all at the same time. Good luck!

Sorry to see you go, and I never did thank you for replying to my horribly awkward blog entry about the “blog wars” in a civil and polite tone (Looking back, I was a little too silly about it).

Congratulations on your next endeavor :)
