CES 2010: LG CES 2010 Press Conference Highlights

Posted by   on January 6, 2010

in Cool Tech

In their traditional role as being the first official Press Conference, LG Electronics kicked off CES 2010 with a slew of new televisions, cell phones, and other gadgets. One of the highlights being an HDTV that is scary thin at 6mm and includes Internet TV, Wi-Fi Connectivity, Netflix, and now Skype Calling capabilities. Is there such a thing as too thin? Obviously not. Highlights from the Press Conference are after the break.

CES 2010: Day 1, Michelle’s Vegas Adventures Continue at CES Unveiled

Posted by   on January 6, 2010

in Cool Tech

It’s my first full day in Vegas, most of the day has been open, so I checked out the new Vegas City Center complex. Very disappointing, it’s all glass and steel building complex with a very high-end shopping complex. After that I spent some time at MGM’s Television City and went on this really cool CSI Interactive Experience and watched a Television Pilot. Last night I saw an amazing show called Legends In Concert which included Jerry Lee Lewis, Tina Turner, Bette Midler, Michael Jackson and Elvis. They were all amazing, but the JLL guy was incredible.

At 4pm was the annual CES Unveiled Pre-show Event it was wall to wall people, gadgets, and food.  On display included a dual eReader, a really cool Remote Control Flying Saucer, Mistibushi’s 3D Television (The depth on this thing was stunning!), a new Android based smartphone, Lenovo’s new Smart Book Appliance thing, Massage Chairs, Powermat, some neat security key chains that sound an alarm when you leave your keys or portable gear behind and a host of other stuff.  If I had one complaint it would be a lot of the exhibitors ran out of Press Kits so I didn’t get the name and specs on a lot of stuff. I wish the organizers created a single press kit with all the exhibitor information. After the break I have some photos, for details on some of these gadgets, check out our CES 2010 Big News Page.

Technocel is showing off a new combination Portable Universal Charger and Battery pack. The idea behind this is you can plug the device into the wall to power all your USB based gadgets and then when you are the go if you still need extra it’ll double as an external battery. The $59.99 price point makes it a pretty nice deal. Full press release is after the break.

CES 2010: T-Mobile Launches HSPA+, Faster than 3G?

Posted by   on January 5, 2010

in Cool Tech

So far my AT&T service is really sucking in The Vegas, it’s dropped every call I’ve made. Luckily, T-Mobile finally sent me a MyTouch to play with and that’s been ok so far, even though the 3G has been spotty – but no dropped calls. It’s weird but T-Mobile isn’t doing much at CES this year, as far as I’m aware (I could be wrong, but I did ask) they are not having any press events, but I will stop by their booth later this week. They did send along a quick release saying their network reached some milestones including increased 3G coverage and they are the first carrier to launch HSPA+ which is supposed to be faster than 3G.

In the first of what will be numerous 3D Television announcements. Vizio has 3 brand new 3D enabled televisions on the way in 72, 55, and 47 inch configurations. You’d think they’d be outrageously expensive, but no, they are $3499, $2499, and $1999 respectively. A 72 inch flat panel 3D television for $3499?  Can’t beat that! The television will feature wireless HDMI, and Vizio’s new Internet Apps. The full press release is after the break.

CES 2010: Michelle’s in Vegas

Posted by   on January 5, 2010

in Cool Tech

I made it to Vegas yesterday. Nice, easy flight out of Regan where the Airport apparently lost power after I took off. Then I get here, someone decides to shoot up a Courthouse. I have a really nice suite at the Circus Circus, today I’m just going to be hanging out. Tonight I’m attending the CES Unveiled event and will have lots of pictures and scoops on some hot gear. Be sure to check out our Cool Tech section for all the latest product announcements, press releases, and photos from my journey. Re-caps of each day will be on the home page, everything else will be in the Cool Tech section. I’m not going to do a CES Predictions piece because I hate dabbling in Speculation, what is there to say the hot items this year will be eBooks and 3D Stuff. I hope to see a lot more All In One Computers since I’m in the market for one.
