I can’t believe that someone actually announced a new product before CES, but GE is showing off its new ‘GlamCam’ webcam/personal imager. Apparently it won yet another one of these bullshit CES pre-show awards (I’m still not sure how that works) in the “2005 International CES Technology is a Girl’s Best Friend (TechGirl) Diamond Product Showcase award in the Digital Imaging” category (seriously).
Basically, it’s a 1.3-megapixel webcam with built-in mirror and 8MB of flash memory on board so you can snap pics even if you’re away from the PC. If it’s as small as I think it is, I think it’ll be pretty great—definitely worth swapping out a plain Jane compact for. It won’t actually be out until after CES, though, and will retail for a $100.
