Switched On: Sony’s forward Dash 23 February 2010 at 4:59 pm by admin

Each week Ross Rubin contributes Switched On , a column about consumer technology. In its introductory press release, here’s what Sony has to say about the Dash , a “personal Internet viewer” that it announced at CES: “Featuring a vivid 7-inch color touch screen…

+ Unannounced BlackBerry Curve 8910 took CES refuge at Case-Mate’s booth? By admin 25 January 2010 at 12:22 pm and have No Comments

RIM has an interesting reputation in the trade show world: it rarely makes any announcements of interest or consequence during events, but if you look hard enough, you still might just find something juicy. Last year’s CES, for example, briefly saw a Curve 8900 mysteriously running AT&T-branded firmware , which we now know foretold a release several months later. This year’s shindig in Vegas proved to be a little less bombastic — or so we thought, anyway, until a dude cleaning out his camera’s memory card noticed that Case-Mate (of all companies) allegedly had an unannounced Curve 8910 chilling in its booth.

+ 3D stole the show at CES 2010 By admin 21 January 2010 at 12:15 pm and have No Comments

Not sure why we’ve been putting this off, but we’ll just come right out and say it: there’s no doubt that this was the year for 3D at CES. We walked the show floor for countless hours and can tell you that just about everyone was showing something related to 3D at their booths. Most of these demos required a bit of a wait to experience them (thanks, hype), and everywhere you went people were talking about 3D

+ Pico projectors caught in the wild, one on a camcorder, one in Samsung’s W9600 cellphone (video) By admin 15 January 2010 at 6:49 am and have No Comments

Yeah, we know: you haven’t bought a pico projector and you really have no plan to do so. Still, it’s kind of fun to see them doing their thing, beaming little, dim images onto walls from improbably small boxes.

If you liked what you saw of Dell’s Mini 5 / Streak Android tablet-MID-phone-thing at CES but didn’t feel like you had enough of a chance to really see it in action, the gray market has come through for you again. We’ve just gotten pinged with this video of our friend Six-fingers handling what looks to be a fully functioning device, replete with Dell’s custom Android skin

+ Philips Cam, Muse and Ariaz mark a renaissance for the boring PMP By admin 13 January 2010 at 3:32 pm and have No Comments

This is soon enough to market that it’s hard to blame the iPod nano specifically for its appearance, but either way it seems that the Philips Cam is the newest member to the oh-so-small club of MP3 / camera combos.

+ Panasonic 2010 point and shoot line hands-on By admin 13 January 2010 at 2:29 pm and have No Comments

We’re just cleaning out the rest of our memory cards from CES, and we totally forgot this moment of unintentional hilarity while grabbing a quick hands-on with Panasonic’s new point-and-shoot line — that’s the new touchscreen DMC-FP3, asking for the name of our baby. Sadly, we were not able to provide it with one, and it responded by continuing to have a somewhat wonky hybrid touchscreen-and-buttons control scheme

+ Inbrics’ SoIP S1 tries to make videophone converts out of us yet By admin 13 January 2010 at 10:30 am and have No Comments

We saw some incredibly cheap, ill-thought, Android-based videophones at CES this year, but this wasn’t one of them. The SoIP S1 from Inbrics is running Android, of course, but it’s under that same fine UI skin that Inbrics has coated its M1 Android slider in

+ Toshiba demonstrates 64GB SDXC, pledges spring release By admin 13 January 2010 at 9:07 am and have No Comments

We’ve known since August that Toshiba was working to rule the roost when it came to voluminous and speedy SDXC storage, and at CES it took the time to beat its chest again, indicating that its new 64GB SDXC cards have started shipping in samples, putting them on a crash-course with card slots sometime this spring. The 64GB cards offer 60MB/s reads and 35MB/s writes, which should be enough to keep up with the Jonses, and the company’s upcoming 32 and 16GB SDHC should be dropping about the same time
