CES Remainders: Lost, the Final Episode
While we were busy covering every gadget imaginable at CES this year, ABC was forcing the stars of the show Lost to do a spoof on their last episode. Then they showed the finished clip at Disney chief Bob Iger's keynote to hundreds of appreciative nerds—complete with CES pandering. More »

Frankenreview: The Best Of "Best Of CES 2007" Lists
CES is sohungover, and all that's left for journalists to do during this tech lull is to sit around and write up their "best of" lists for CES. But since our Frankenreview is about collecting product reviews and sifting through the opinions for consensus, what better to review than the best of what was reviewed at CES 2007? More » -

Sunwave Universal Remote: 7-in-1...Colors

The Official "Will You Marry Me?" Optical Mouse
Ah, the North Hall, the ghetto of CES. Home of Asian OEMs, where you can find all kinds of crap that you neither want nor need. Take for instance, the GTMS-3000 Mini Finger Optical Mouse from Guann Tau. With the "ergonomic and humanization design" touted by its flyer, you simply slip the mouse's strap over your finger and point the optical sensor downward. It has a tracking resolution of 400/800 dpi and gives you a little over a meter of cable to work with. As you can see, the one I played with was pink (though they claim it's red), but it also comes in black and blue. Unfortunately, it wasn't hooked up to a computer so I can't really comment on how well it worked. It did feel awkward, though. And cheap. So I expect some version of this to show up in Radio Shack by the end of the year. More »

Phone Grope and Gallery: Samsung Ultra Music SGH-F300
We told you about the Ultra Music back in December. Well at CES, we got personally acquainted with it when I mentioned the word "iPhone" to a Samsung rep, who swiftly brought us to the phone to check it out. iPhone it ain't, but sweeter than Chocolate it is.

Fukuoku Massage Glove Hands-On: Good Vibrations
Marketed as the world's first multi-speed waterproof massage glove, the Fukuoku should be used to give yourself or someone you know a nice, thorough massage.

Cisco Taking on Apple TV with Secret Competitor
Ever since the whole iPhone trademark scandal, Apple and Cisco have been clashing like two old archrivals. Now word has it that Cisco is working on a product that will directly take on Apple TV. According to Daily Tech, the new set-top box will be able to "serve and sync to content much in the same manner as Apple TV." The device is expected to ship later this year and might even play DVDs, though it's not known if it'll be of the high-def kind. If Cisco's secret set-top box does 1080p, we're up for a very interesting next few months. More » -

LG Hybrid HD DVD/Blu-ray Player Getting Canned?
Anyone who was planning on buying LG's hybrid high-def player may wanna sit down for this one. As we reported from CES, the BH100 fully supports Blu-ray discs, but since it lacks support for HD DVD's iHD, you can't access an HD DVD's interactive menus, you can only see the movie straight through.

Updated iRiver has Bluetooth, Awesome Accessory
Spotted at CES by the dapreview folks is this iRiver S10 with a watch-conversion attachment. Interestingly enough, the watch accessory covers the headphone jack on the actual S10, but then it was noticed that this version of the S10 (rather than the older version) actually has a small Bluetooth logo on it. I'd rock that watch, and rock some Bluetooth headphones to go along with it. No details on this updated S10, but we'll keep you posted. More »

Hands On with CES' Smallest Tablet
Flybook's V33i was without a doubt, the smallest notebook we saw at CES. This thing made our 3-pound ultraportable look like a heavyweight. The keyboard is very cramped, but we love that it has built-in HSDPA/UMTS/EDGE and GPRS. The 8.9-inch display might make you blind, however. We put our Motorola Q on the keyboard just so you can get an idea of how small this sucker really is. More » -

Canon Buys Toshiba's Stake in SED
Canon and Toshiba are going their separate ways in what was their joint SED-based venture. The reason? It seems that Nano-Proprietary, a Texas-based company which licensed technology to Canon, is crying foul over the fact that Canon is sharing Nano's technology with Toshiba. As a result, Canon is telling Toshiba to fork over their 50% stake in their SED venture, making it a one-company project. It's uncertain how this is gonna play out in the long run, although Canon insists they'll still produce the displays for the fourth quarter of 2007. But between their previous delays and their skipping CES, it just sounds like SED is heading the way of vaporware. More » -

Wrapping Up: Gizmodo's "IP" Address During CES
From the 16th floor of the ImperialPitPalace in Las Vegas, which was Gizmodo's base of operations for CES when not in press-room hell. Or swank-ass parties. Which means when we fell into comas at the end of each day, running nonstop from 8 am to 10 pm (or later). It was intense, tiring, stressful, pure madness and a hell of a lot of fun, all at the same time. We hope you loved our coverage as much as we loved covering it. And apparently a lot of you did, so thanks and look forward to post-show analysis in the coming days. More »

How do you toss up 500+ posts at CES and the Macworld Keynote without hooking up to a single WiFi or hard ethernet port? You rock some cellular data.

That's thanks to Sprint, who loaned us the cards on the condition that we'd give em feedback on how they worked in Vegas and SF. They were incredible. More » -

Nyko Goes Wild, Releases Entirely Too Many Next Gen Console Accessories
Nyko used CES this year to show off (in a swank Hilton suite, no less) a host of accessories for the PS3, Wii and Xbox 360. Lucky me, I got to touch and play around with them until they finally kicked me out. Charging controllers is the name of the game on the PS3 front, with the Charge Base, Dual Charge AC and Charge Link all serving to charge the Sixaxis controller. The Charge Base ($40) can charge up to four controllers at the same time and plugs into the wall; the Dual Charge AC ($25) charges two controllers via a USB connection; the Charge Link ($15) plugs into the PS3 and charges while the system is turned out. The cable's a little longer than the standard Sony one, welcome news for those who like to sit far away from the TV. More » -
