CES 2007: iZ3D Updates to a 22-inch Widescreen 3D Monitor

An updated, larger, and wider version of the iZ3D Three-Dimensional gaming monitor we reviewed in September is being launched at CES. Along with an improved look—they went black from silver—there are slightly less nerdy-looking glasses as well. The new specs look like goggles from that weird undersea part in Star Wars Episode I. We’ll check…

Non-Apple Mac Tablet Slated for Macworld

Now before you get excited over the image, remember that this isn’t an Apple Tablet, but instead a third-party tablet made by the “German and American engineers” at Axiotron. Still, the ModBook is about as close as you can get to owning an “official” Mac tablet. The details are still sparse, but here’s what we…

Westinghouse to Demo Quad HD LCD at CES

While other companies will be flaunting their latest 1080p panels at CES, Westinghouse is planning on stealing the show by demoing the world’s first 56-inch quad HD LCD.

Tip N’ Sip Cools, Warms, Tears a Hole in Universe

A device cooling and warming at the same time? This can’t be safe for the universe, but the Tip N’ Sip does it. Unlike the USB cooler and warmer we saw earlier today this device keeps the coffee/tea/whatever piping hot below and cool on top for safer drinking. The “tip” comes into play because you…

Nintendo DS iPod-Clone Mod

I’ve just recently started dabbling into Nintendo DS modding, but this one is pretty damn cool. Similar to the MDA iPod clone we saw a while back, this DS version simply emulates the iPod using the bottom touchscreen. Too bad the speakers on the DS are pretty weaksauce or you could be impressing all of…

USB Chiller and Warmer

Why settle for just USB chilling or USB warming when you can have two for the price of one? The cooling keeps your drinks down to 11 degrees Celsius (51.8 F) and warms them up to 53 degrees Celcius (127.4 F). Pretty impressive when you compare it to the standalone units. https://gizmodo.com/usb-beverage-chiller-149273 Not a bad…

Available in white, black, shiny chrome (pictured here) or amber, it has a little LED…

iRiver Clix 2, W10 Try to Steal CES DAP Spotlight
