CES Review

Not Your Old Man’s 3-D: No less than three companies introduced “The World’s First 3-D HD Monitor” (LG, Samsung, Microsoft). Microsoft’s message was totally focused on gaming (123D), while Samsung and a few others requred special glassware to see the effects. Only LG’s was a pure, 3-D monitor. For my money, this is one of those things to wait a few years on…

PSFK FAVORITES FROM CES 2008:
1. DLP – Ultimate Desktop Display
- curved matrix display, 2880 x 900 resolution, ultimate for simulator gaming and desktop management (could see these all over Wall Street)

2. LG – WiMax SmartPhone

3. LG – Viewty

4. Samsung – Q1 Ultra Premium UMPC

5. Motorola – T505, MotoRokr & Moto Q

6. Microsoft – Surface Technology
- not new, but still one of the coolest displays, with more possibilities than most of the technology displayed

The NEXT Big Thing: iriver (these guys had some amazing things to show, and totally flew under the radar)
