Netbook If you haven’t had a chance, you still have several hours to vote in the 2008 Engadget Awards, for the “best of” tech from 2008, as well as the tech-related items you most anticipate this year. Voting ends tonight.

The results will be released at the end of the month, as well as the Engadget Editor’s Choice awards.
