At the Consumer Electronics Show in 2010, Darren and Shannon bring you their first impressions of the hottest gadgets to tickle their technolust. Stay tuned for gaming netbooks, open source set-top boxes, low-end and high-end ebook readers, hybrid gaming controllers / musical instruments and Linux lovin' smartphones.

Hybrid MIDI / Gaming guitar

We got a chance to play with some prototypes of the Gambridge Z-1. These MIDI guitars gone game controllers sport individual fret buttons and strings for a more realistic playing experience. They're working on emulating cords to match up with the falling notes found in Rock Band or Guitar Hero, but no word yet on custom integration. With the look and feel of a real instrument and full MIDI functionality we can invision gamers going rock star with this little device. No word on price but we're told it'll be hitting the market in time for the holidays.
