Join RED ONE TO INTRO POCKET VIDEO?
Everyone remembers how Red One rocked the video world last year. It featured an 11.4-megapixel chip and can shoot HDTV video at up to 60fps. And it wasn’t just vaporware either as Lord of the Rings director Peter Jackson shot “Crossing the Line,” a short film on World War I with it with stunning results same or better quality as professional equivalents costs hundreds of thousands of dollars, but for an $18,000 pricetag. Now that the Red One has redefined low budget filmmaking and has started shipping to eager filmmakers everywhere, Red is setting their cross hairs square on the pocket market with Scarlet.

We’ve seen the cool commercials showing users moving their touchscreen iPod or iPhone through a battery of movies to watch on the widescreen. But with the average battery time of that widescreen iPod or iPhone hovering under two hours, users can’t even enjoy an entire feature before their iPod dies leaving the user hanging on the ending of a good popcorn movie. Enter the Morphie.

Sony lets PSP announcement slip – Say hello to Skype for PSP
When it comes to mobile gaming, I always reach for my Nintendo DS. There are plenty of reasons which make me choose it over Sony’s PSP. I’m not one to start console wars, so I won’t go into detail about why I prefer one over the other. I will however tell you that after CES, there’s going to be a really good reason to consider the PSP.

Photowatch shows off your pics, kills your eyes
Are you one of those people that keeps a dozen pictures in your purse or wallet? I can’t say that I really am. I’ve got a couple of pictures I carry in my wallet, but I don’t have much a reason to keep any more than that. If there’s a new picture that I really want to show people, I’ll just upload it to my phone and set it as my wallpaper or something. However, if you’re looking for a different way to show off your pics in public, this watch might be for you.

Relive the days of Sonic with the Sega Mega Drive Portable Game Player
I remember way back in the day when Sonic The Hedgehog was the coolest video game character alive. By this time Mario was old news, there was just no way he could keep up with Sonic. Had it not been for this super-fast hedgehog, I don’t think the Sega Genesis would have taken off at all. Don’t get me wrong, there were some other good games, but Sonic was too cool to pass up. It’s been some time since my old Sega actually worked, and I do miss zipping through the various levels collecting a vast amount of rings, though I never fully understood how the life of a hedgehog could possibly be affected by the possession of golden rings. If you’re like me, you might be interested in this portable gaming system that features 20 of your favorite old-school games.

New Korean PMP seems to do it all
We all know that the iPod line of portable media players (PMPs) are the most famous and ubiquitous at this point in time, but that does not mean that other consumer electronics manufacturers aren’t going to sit down and do nothing. The Maxian E900T from Korea is one interesting PMP that seems to come with everything but the kitchen sink. It is powered by the Windows CE platform, so you can tell from the operating system alone that there will be much more on offer other than the typical audio and video playback capabilities that you get with other standard PMPs. Let’s usher in the new year by checking out just exactly what the Maxian E900T has on offer.

Now THAT’s a touch screen …
Sure, the iPhone’s touch screen capability is super cool. And if previous reports proved true, a Newton Touch may be just over the horizon, then touch screen may be the interface of the future. Microsoft surely thinks to, having announced the SURFACE last year as a tabletop interface for hotels and other corporate concerns.
LG/Philips is on the touch bandwagon as they are set to rock CES with Multi-touch Screens that recognize input from either a touch of a finger or more precise writing instruments.

LaserTV finally ready at CES
The Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas always rings in the new year with breaking news that make gadget geeks foam at the mouth and this year will be no different. Mitsubishi is set to announce at CES their long anticipated ‘Laser TV’ rear projection 1080p HDTV. Using three lasers rather than one, the new Laser TV concept will divide the colors into red, blue and green lasers to display what Mitsubishi claims is 90% of colors visible to the human eye. By contrast, LCD and Plasma TVs only display about 40% of the known color spectrum. The result will make for sharper, more colorful images. In addition, the new LaserTV technology holds the promise of more lightweight, thin, amd extremely wide-viewing-angles at an affordable price.
