Live TV to Portable Products from Crown Castle

Yeah, I know it’s not a gadget, but with all the next-gen products being announced at CES, it’s good to know that somebody is thinking about the software. Like Crown Castle International, which claims it can deliver live TV (DVB-H), video and audio services to all kinds of shit—from cellphones to PMPs to cars. By…

Obviously…

More Big News From Panasonic

It’s the “my TV is bigger than yours” wars and though Samsung seems to have won the LCD part of it, Matsushita (maker of Panasonic products) is pulling a ridiculous 103-inch plasma out of its ass to take the cake at this year’s CES. In Korea, Samsung has the largest plasma on the market at…

Samsung’s LED DLP at CES

Yet another first from Samsung (it claims) is its LED light-sourced DLP rear projection HDTV. The HL-S5679W replaces the current UHP bulb with a high-powered LED light source, which simply means that it doesn’t require a color wheel like normal DLP TVs, and the red, green and blue laser LEDs sequentially fire to produce smoother…

Samsung Tops Others with 82″ LCD TV

Um, yeah. Did I say Sharp’s 65-inch LCD was the biggest ever here at CES? Scratch that. Looks like Samsung has topped that nonsense with an 82-inch 1080p LCD TV, though this one has no price. So there. The LN-S8281D has a built-in ATSC tuner, CableCard slot, 2 HDMI connections and DACS speakers. And for…

Satugo: Throw It and Show It

I have a feeling this is as old as my mom, but I’ll post it anyway. See, apparently you throw this ball at your “motive”—I suspect they mean “subject”—and it takes a digital picture. Satugo stands for See Aim Throw CaptUre and GO. SATCG didn’t have the same ring, I guess. The interface is obviously…

Sony Portable GPS

More Sony news from CES. Trying to grab some goodness from companies like TomTom and Garmin, Sony is showing what it calls the Nav-U portable navigation system. It’s small and with the easy-to-use bracket, it won’t take me hours to figure out how to position it in my car. Kudos, Sony. Another nice addition is…

Sharp Claims Largest LCD TV at CES

Every year at CES, Sharp comes out with a larger Aquos LCD TV than the year before. And I always drool for about 15 minutes before they tell me it won’t be available for about a year or so. However, with its current 65-inch giant, it looks like they actually have a price on the…

Live from CES: Microsoft and the 360

Old Billy McGates gave his keynote address today and there was plenty of Xbox 360 news. What did Microsoft learn from the release of the Xbox 360 nearly a month ago? Well, it’s pretty obvious: the 360 is a system that is flying off the shelves. Microsoft would ideally like to sell between 4.5 and…

Live From CES: Garmin Forerunner 205 and 305

The Forerunner is just about the perfect real-time distance calculator for long-distance runners. But the previous model had one major drawback: The signal got lost in trees or even when jogging in big cities where tall buildings might block the GPS signal. Garmin claims to have fixed that problem with its 205 and 305 models…

Live From CES: The Sony Reader

Who needs Blu-ray? This is the Sony reader that uses the display technology from E-Ink I’ve been hearing so much about. To give you an idea of just how good this display looks… I walked up to the counter, looked at the text on the screen and asked, “So when will you have working units…

Live From CES: Eyebud 800

Our pals from eMagin are rocking the wearable scene here at CES with the Eyebud 800. This is a single-eye personal OLED display. It straps around the head and the eyepiece flips up and down like something from a 1980s science-fiction film. But the eMagin folks are pitching it to go with the iPod video,…
