Monday, December 18th, 2006 running time 44:58
We dedicate this very special holiday edition of
InDigital to our friend James Kim. What started as a
holiday gift guide with our friends from the glory
days of TechTV turned into a hodgepodge of rants,
raves, and other interesting ideas. There's some gift
ideas mixed in there somewhere. At the very least,
TechTV fans will see lots of familiar faces.

That it is really a social experience. That is geared toward families and friends you know it's not like. If you've ever tried to sit down and play halo against somebody who's really good -- it's not fun -- you know it's not really not on."
" So we had such different experience. Are really X."
" Xbox 362. At what games. Say I wouldn't mind that. -- I mean you really 360 looks. Join us. -- Nokia three for me personally because except they're because the Blu-ray capabilities that the -- I I don't like thinking you know I feel like that."

Windows XP and a really really cool magnetic. Power cord. And it sounds."
" out about and some traveling unison. That's my trip I bought myself -- act -- for. It is the greatest thing ever but since I've been gone Apple's now come up when it. Mac -- which is the fastest Mac they've ever put out -- computer I've attached to this is that this system is its -- on price. And it's going to run you about thirteen 1800. You have to you have to really wanted. However there are a few ways you can bring down the price for example. Using a Dell 24 inch monitor here instead of the typical Apple cinema display no it's not a cinema display but it's nice minor 24 like I said. Good refresh rate can support resolution up to the eighteen to whining by 1200. You can -- vertically or horizontally. And an assault on brings priced an offering it acts. I want to seventeen inch MacBook pro with a hundred processors and a gazillion gigabytes of memory thirty can Jillian megs of ram an accomplice in the stock and I think that tells time. Yeah on the use dust and his great love the Mac OS but if you're a windows user. When Windows Vista comes out and he hasn't I just. Happens you have an old copy yet it you can rattling is just on Mac Pro used in boot camp what."

I'd say I'll look there's a few things and but you know like that up another."

A great way to settle these arguments and keep my kids happy. It's a Garmin navigation system for my car that'll tell me exactly where I'm going and exactly how long going to take -- get there and when I'm driving by myself. It's something to talk it."

A 199 bucks from T-Mobile -- That'd -- TiVo subscriber or switch over one thing to think about make your dad doesn't have big films because the old Blackberry -- has two letters per key so as your trying to."
" Type in -- kind of maddening it quite yet it manipulated properly so the bigger dad maybe. So I used to think that blackberries have the aesthetic -- well Legos. Thank easily resist that all crackberry addiction thing until now -- and they've gotten stylish. And sexy and that in and that's. The pearl has the flexibility of a -- I'm not in business for -- in the back. So not only is it real Purdy it comes only spot with time tested Blackberry any. And nice found -- thing if teachers and it works great with multiple email account. And it didn't in the attic and hello then."

" you know I'm not enough."
" Yeah exactly why I'm not that yup that's a viable concerned about that yet yeah it's I don't think I think you know. Metro sexual had a flexible -- because I'll."
" And -- so -- it up."
" While we are trying to watch the -- to federal flex out of our house. We want to listen to some music music devices and the way that we. Experience. And -- and and share music -- our friend has changed so much in the last ten years and an even more than that in the last like eighteen months there are different. Music players in different ways to listening. Days so here's what our friends in the tech TV family had its name out."
" Are -- to -- the top I hate Howard Stern hated hated him don't like listening to them. And I really don't like supporting him but. Besides all that -- really love Sirius Satellite Radio I think it's a great thing to give anybody is a gift this year better than accent tuna why. -- has the football -- the got a great NFL -- they've got to talk stations you know the power. If you like Howard house. But they also I think -- much better music connects them like their music channels lot the other reason why I like -- those devices that. So here's what you could do if you've got somebody want to -- serious for. Don't go lot by a built in radio for the car. It what are -- this thing right here look at this let's see this is a boom box that serious boombox it's very -- and look at it shadows and look around. Intent on the back is that it. The nice thing about it is how this thing all the sports during this is the sports store for. And this actually plugs into a wide variety of devices so -- music -- box which sells for. It's possible right here inside your cart that's the cradle you can also do that at home and great homes well. So you pay one subscription thirteen dollars a month and then move that around from device to device cradle to cradle endlessly about music anywhere it comes."
" Wedding -- done is not because of the fire it's because I'm about to take -- out about Zune for the holidays. Why while it plays videos it. -- those plays music -- yet and here it's got beautiful screen and tell Wi-Fi capabilities you to share your music so what else in the industry's doing it regardless of what limitations that come with it. Microsoft has done what Apple's been doing for years in a game one desktop application to work with the -- normally about Windows Media Player all that other stuff he's really simple to use. That's something that's really really important it's a -- hardware perspective I think the Zune is pretty cool that's why I'm taking."
" This this is based -- argued that you're remember this as the today. The music -- that -- the -- finally hit the big -- Leo or your memory programs. The screen this is that Microsoft. Everybody I I have to say when I first played with the this. -- Beautiful screen and you put video on here I would do would. -- When you would be here you know bigger than -- gone pretty. He's seen. There was a lot to like about this percent and that's it that's at -- it was that or you could tune it. Once with primary -- But anyway let's let's. But as a couple of things all of this first thing you do. It doesn't turn they got a quick way. Okay okay okay I could -- maybe maybe there's some law. What else does it do all but why that's why you know you could --"
" The right and your good. I don't know download but music for them right and with a -- the only."
" You can though it is in that Steve Ballmer immortal words work. A song -- this is somebody else's if a place where -- And then. They get it three days later. Three days three plays whichever comes first. The real problem with -- great device great idea great engineering in the Canadian -- got a whole. And the thing that's really. Really -- mind. And part is that it's. We tell you this money goes into the pockets -- you Versa. Microsoft. Agree. To pay the record companies. For the hardware -- The hardware that means essentially. That there agreeing it's gonna be used for piracy so we should give you guys some money. Now I am this is using them universal. Every year money that is it or. What you know one you're gonna you know one this is the beginning of digital rights management no money the most their records that companies might emotion pictures taken. People have only seen the light the -- I have written by this. The zone. --"
" Dolby labs has developed a technology that not a lot of people know about it's called dolby headphone. They took speakers and scientists and test subjects and they figured out exactly how our brains process directional sound. They use this information to build an algorithm that will convert. Any kind of dolby five point one surround sound. To something you can listen to into headphones you get true surround sound experience just wearing headphones the process is called dolby headphone. These days you have to get a little device that goes between your iPod UPS here or whatever you're listening to your dvd player."
" To convert that."
" Five point one into dolby headphones surround sound so what I want is for Apple and Sony and all the dvd manufacturers. To integrate. Dolby headphone technology. Into portable devices so that I can have that's theatre surround sound system wherever I go."
" One more thing."
" Welcome to the social. Main. --"
" So hot. You must -- what kick a lot of copies and -- something because I got stuck defending this."
" I -- exactly cause he thinks lands and obviously Leo you hate it. But. I got it felt like it technology wise column features that wireless -- even though it is limited I just wanted another perspective."
" Leo's Leo like. Like -- Anger towards it as much philosophical. Not as much and harboring negative early life it all around Elizabeth smart like what's playing on the -- dad and I and I I totally. Totally agree with Leo I don't think it's limited I think it's crippled useless. The fact that their DR. Which if you beam songs to me only lets me play it three times or have it for three days that the current is applied to. Every single filings. So if you make something yourself and garage band. And you know they're pricing it at -- to and then Microsoft has you know what no you don't get to do that and because you bought it. This we're gonna give universal music group a whole bunch of money because they think you're."
" You know what we think you're criminal. I am so tired of these companies training that customers. Who are supporting them what they're doing something wrong presumption of guilt so what does it end here."
" Until somebody up. It rented just gets hit in the head with a click that and firmware upgrade that on cripples. I think music sales date -- a line."
" I absolutely agree that universal's. Universal. I don't like the messages sent me. When everyone. Is handled it it is priced well. Down multiple music it just I don't like you're playing doubles at -- that doubles the -- and yeah. I would ask I thought so I honestly when I he realistically -- friendly yet. Probably. On I don't think it's ready I like the -- I think the future with why I agree the capabilities he cannot -- pretty cute and I and I agree that perspective in the packet is this sizes -- Philosophically I supported you were not all right and I."
" But there are criminals speeder. -- I don't look."
" I really actively with which in my back about satellite radio. I've been yeah -- and subscriber for years and years and years and I can't even think about going back I don't and Washington is watching his review. Really makes it and -- it and might make it. It's just it you know it's the all the components that it still feel like you are gonna need that he X -- some critics that's okay we -- just talk about what you could listen to -- but let's check out against that will --"
" This is the original slingbox and if you you know I own three satellite radio I've got four TiVo's people look at you strangely when across the street because of all that politically why that's good. This lets me -- my radio anywhere let's let me watch my -- anywhere. I hope what are these up to my TiVo anywhere around the world around my house I can watch any TV program I want -- stored on my TiVo. That was great way that was nasty TiVo. We that I have. I got myself an HD TiVo's like -- watch high definition video. And little harder until they came out with us. Now this is you can see the little mostly original this is the sling media pro and this box adds so much more to the whole -- thing. Turnaround there are actually four inputs on it it's got super video right here it's got the little. Is that it sooner -- There. At this this may look like an HDMI port it's not an -- where there's a dongle that plugs in that component video. Which is what -- please go into it the other side and plug it into my plasma. And now I can look at sixteen by nine component HD video around the house wirelessly or wired or around the world via the Internet. It's so small it will cost fifty dollars."
" Well hello -- my former tech TV friends my name is Michaela Pereira and I. May be familiar to you from my days at tech TV is at the news anchor tech live and also on the early show. -- adults management tonight with Scott -- and I yes well I am now residing here in almost any advocates LA Los Angeles we just finished decorating your treatable with great. My holiday gift list want to know about it I think that it's time for me to upgrade my TiVo my TiVo is kind of maxed -- this in nineteen because of my early hours after. Miss all the prime time programming in my TiVo is jam packed and I'm thinking that I might either have to upgrade. Or I'm I just go with the direct TV version which is a lot cheaper or anyone in my. Tech TV friends can hook me up and breaking my TiVo and expect it -- now -- memory. Have a back. One."
" The best -- you could give somebody the season would be each dvd or Blu-ray disc players. -- dvd and whoever is the finest HD content available today it surpasses the quality of cable satellite any other consumer source of high definition video. And I can do just as many reasons to ignore all formats wait awhile longer purchase. Start right off. All formats -- dvd and blu rebels but the same resolution 1080. TV available today. Now supports the great latest and greatest and audio formats like dolby true HD DT SEC. Multi channel studio quality audio or format support that is well. In fact as far as video compression goes all formats support the exact same format so. Technically there's really little difference between people other than the fact that guess what. The disks don't -- in each other's players and there's no sign of any kind of compatibility appearing in your future. That's kind of bad that means if you want to label of these without thinking about the format you're gonna need to separate players coming and going and expensive. Price wise. The cheapest H dvd player has just derive Xbox 360s with the HD dvd add on drive at the 200 dollar add on drive to the Xbox-360 game console which you are out on of course. However or 200 dollar add on. That's a good inexpensive way to dip your feet wet in each dvd goodness. For Blu-ray it turns out the cheapest player is also just derive that would be the PlayStation 3 at five or 600 dollars that's another expensive option. Get your foot in the door for that as well and the holiday season good luck finding one. Overall. Again it is the finest quality will see in any HD source if you play the same movie on any dvd or Blu-ray disc. On good TV a big screen HDTV and compare that to the quality satellite or cable it's gonna blow it out of the water in terms of not only -- But when actually it's really fast things around screen. You'll notice that the Blu-ray and HD disks and keep up with that action without breaking up macro -- screen providing. Excellent detail satellite and cable. And I can see that I'd be --"
" The biggest and most amazing this year is -- all this way to but the Blu-ray HD dvd and except for one thing there's Blu-ray and there's HDDVD. Everybody has an HDTV at home sitting there if -- cable or they've got satellite the whole idea is if you're at the movies I love movies music. Favorite things to do with free fun watch -- I love watching movies. But the so incredibly annoying about Sony. And the rest of the world hitting the pissing contest what the next standard for -- playback me. So you're looking at that it's like wow Sony well -- actually thought Sony Casone held off in the released to the PS3 became the Samsung player which is the Sony Blu-ray technology at any given point blue laser whenever -- our Blu-ray players. But a thousand dollars by the next generation. Versus a Toshiba system reason dvd was -- 500 dollars or you know hundred dollars now -- look at -- all the -- and this is great because if you see the right. Really well transfer movies -- generation -- truth is Blu-ray or HD dvd. It -- exquisite. Huge screens like 42 inches at the very minimum use -- larger -- TV so good. But for the most part bureaucracy because of a stupid pissing contest probably company's one on the basic rights and patents. And the fact that your local cable company or the satellite and a limited to and we kind of stuff and -- anybody making channels so."
" And finally meet says I am sad to camera for the Sony handy cam HD RXR one. This puppy is -- times to. As hard drive and it. -- The thirty gig drive holds four hours of video at the top quality video setting and it's not that they'd and I don't have the cart around eight. So it's so much more portable and it's and that things have been a -- girl with app. You can feel free to throw the Sony so eloquently name's Katie -- forty XP are to you down my chimney. And that way I want those safety home movies shot."
" So eighteen times to -- that's now part. All I --"
" The archive them review we did. On the JVC."
" Because they take a lot of India and I hate it when I eradicate this grant for TV. This just yet I know you didn't like that one step you have to do when you are important book yeah. JVC I had not known only -- on -- exit that's that I'm really it's definitely getting one regardless Santa bring it up and did TV now. Wow and a I mean you have to be able to watch your high Def home kind of tell him yet."
" They actually well coming up next let's take a look at digital camera."
" For the younger kids from Fisher price this is -- digital camera tough cam. It takes real digital pictures hasn't LCDs you can review each picture -- after it's taken -- the clothing is okay it's not great not going to be you know britney's finance -- under twelve competition. But you can print -- 72 DPI picks up about four by six size. Cost ninety bucks and hey we get the kids to leave your digital camera alone that's a good thing."
" When it comes to digital cameras I like to categories that did you last tell our ultra compact. With digital SLR's I like the Canon -- thirty DS eight point two megapixel which is plenty for most photography -- even wholesalers."
" And interchangeable lenses and manual controls that if you lot of creative freedom in the shot to take. The most importantly -- SP five frames per second in the caption publish you never thought you'd get."
" That's why I can be jas thirty."
" By all digital pictures that you take with you good camera. This idea is awesome for grandma grandpa maybe somebody that you want to send those photos too but it's kind of hassle to get them on the Internet. So digital picture frames you seems before where you put digital images onto card you put it into the frame scroll through those pictures. What's different this here is we're seeing Internet enabled digital picture frames. That you can upload photos to a service like Flickr and then it automatically puts them into the frame so you put your pictures up online. Gramm gets a new picture every day ones I've seen are from Ciba and also a living picture memento and the yet to reorder this so popular monopoly available now and kindness and 15200. Bucks."
" My number one pick for ultra compact cameras is that Canon power shot at forty. It's really really tiny and he thought seven mega pixels. The other screen is tiny on one point eight inches but still it's a camera you point your pocket like a cellphone take with you everywhere. And let's face it you'll have a camera with you you're never gonna get those great shots and the whole point of having digital camera."
" This year I've picked -- looking fine pix and thirty -- pretty standard camera has a big LCD adequate amount mega pixels but. The thing about this camera it is the single best low light camera out there you don't get that -- don't get that green and so. Let's say you're buying a camera for May -- party animal Paris Hilton type. This is the camera -- that the it's nonsense but I."
" Really interesting getting one of those all in one. Printer or scanner you know the multi function printers I needed to fax I needed to scam I needed to print. And I'm looking at the Canon am. 830 it's the want to think -- want to get because it has individual cartridges you know to change the whole. You know things can change the colors out individually that's the one I'm looking for I think that's what I want I'm hoping Santa. We'll hook that up for the holidays."
" So I wanted at did you less alarmed by. They are bulky yet they'll handle the -- taken out but I definitely want something really equality has been that they've got. Yeah it's not something -- is ugly routers and."
" And I nursery and -- yeah. And you can keep it next year --"
" I am in love. Canon camera. It's I'm not a partner fingers like don't know if that's the best optics or whatever but I have one there little point and shoot cameras I love. There's software. The way I get off camera on the Mac so simple and we manage all that stuff is great. If I were to go and this alarm. I would be inclined to get hands as pleased this year."

Any kind of dolby five point one surround sound. To something you can listen to into headphones you get true surround sound experience just wearing headphones the process is called dolby headphone. These days you have to get a little device that goes between your iPod UPS here or whatever you're listening to your dvd player."

" Leo's Leo like. Like -- Anger towards it as much philosophical. Not as much and harboring negative early life it all around Elizabeth smart like what's playing on the -- dad and I and I I totally. Totally agree with Leo I don't think it's limited I think it's crippled useless. The fact that their DR. Which if you beam songs to me only lets me play it three times or have it for three days that the current is applied to. Every single filings. So if you make something yourself and garage band. And you know they're pricing it at -- to and then Microsoft has you know what no you don't get to do that and because you bought it. This we're gonna give universal music group a whole bunch of money because they think you're."

" This is the original slingbox and if you you know I own three satellite radio I've got four TiVo's people look at you strangely when across the street because of all that politically why that's good. This lets me -- my radio anywhere let's let me watch my -- anywhere. I hope what are these up to my TiVo anywhere around the world around my house I can watch any TV program I want -- stored on my TiVo. That was great way that was nasty TiVo. We that I have. I got myself an HD TiVo's like -- watch high definition video. And little harder until they came out with us. Now this is you can see the little mostly original this is the sling media pro and this box adds so much more to the whole -- thing. Turnaround there are actually four inputs on it it's got super video right here it's got the little. Is that it sooner -- There. At this this may look like an HDMI port it's not an -- where there's a dongle that plugs in that component video. Which is what -- please go into it the other side and plug it into my plasma. And now I can look at sixteen by nine component HD video around the house wirelessly or wired or around the world via the Internet. It's so small it will cost fifty dollars."
" Well hello -- my former tech TV friends my name is Michaela Pereira and I. May be familiar to you from my days at tech TV is at the news anchor tech live and also on the early show. -- adults management tonight with Scott -- and I yes well I am now residing here in almost any advocates LA Los Angeles we just finished decorating your treatable with great. My holiday gift list want to know about it I think that it's time for me to upgrade my TiVo my TiVo is kind of maxed -- this in nineteen because of my early hours after. Miss all the prime time programming in my TiVo is jam packed and I'm thinking that I might either have to upgrade. Or I'm I just go with the direct TV version which is a lot cheaper or anyone in my. Tech TV friends can hook me up and breaking my TiVo and expect it -- now -- memory. Have a back. One."
" The best -- you could give somebody the season would be each dvd or Blu-ray disc players. -- dvd and whoever is the finest HD content available today it surpasses the quality of cable satellite any other consumer source of high definition video. And I can do just as many reasons to ignore all formats wait awhile longer purchase. Start right off. All formats -- dvd and blu rebels but the same resolution 1080. TV available today. Now supports the great latest and greatest and audio formats like dolby true HD DT SEC. Multi channel studio quality audio or format support that is well. In fact as far as video compression goes all formats support the exact same format so. Technically there's really little difference between people other than the fact that guess what. The disks don't -- in each other's players and there's no sign of any kind of compatibility appearing in your future. That's kind of bad that means if you want to label of these without thinking about the format you're gonna need to separate players coming and going and expensive. Price wise. The cheapest H dvd player has just derive Xbox 360s with the HD dvd add on drive at the 200 dollar add on drive to the Xbox-360 game console which you are out on of course. However or 200 dollar add on. That's a good inexpensive way to dip your feet wet in each dvd goodness. For Blu-ray it turns out the cheapest player is also just derive that would be the PlayStation 3 at five or 600 dollars that's another expensive option. Get your foot in the door for that as well and the holiday season good luck finding one. Overall. Again it is the finest quality will see in any HD source if you play the same movie on any dvd or Blu-ray disc. On good TV a big screen HDTV and compare that to the quality satellite or cable it's gonna blow it out of the water in terms of not only -- But when actually it's really fast things around screen. You'll notice that the Blu-ray and HD disks and keep up with that action without breaking up macro -- screen providing. Excellent detail satellite and cable. And I can see that I'd be --"
" The biggest and most amazing this year is -- all this way to but the Blu-ray HD dvd and except for one thing there's Blu-ray and there's HDDVD. Everybody has an HDTV at home sitting there if -- cable or they've got satellite the whole idea is if you're at the movies I love movies music. Favorite things to do with free fun watch -- I love watching movies. But the so incredibly annoying about Sony. And the rest of the world hitting the pissing contest what the next standard for -- playback me. So you're looking at that it's like wow Sony well -- actually thought Sony Casone held off in the released to the PS3 became the Samsung player which is the Sony Blu-ray technology at any given point blue laser whenever -- our Blu-ray players. But a thousand dollars by the next generation. Versus a Toshiba system reason dvd was -- 500 dollars or you know hundred dollars now -- look at -- all the -- and this is great because if you see the right. Really well transfer movies -- generation -- truth is Blu-ray or HD dvd. It -- exquisite. Huge screens like 42 inches at the very minimum use -- larger -- TV so good. But for the most part bureaucracy because of a stupid pissing contest probably company's one on the basic rights and patents. And the fact that your local cable company or the satellite and a limited to and we kind of stuff and -- anybody making channels so."
" And finally meet says I am sad to camera for the Sony handy cam HD RXR one. This puppy is -- times to. As hard drive and it. -- The thirty gig drive holds four hours of video at the top quality video setting and it's not that they'd and I don't have the cart around eight. So it's so much more portable and it's and that things have been a -- girl with app. You can feel free to throw the Sony so eloquently name's Katie -- forty XP are to you down my chimney. And that way I want those safety home movies shot."

" When it comes to digital cameras I like to categories that did you last tell our ultra compact. With digital SLR's I like the Canon -- thirty DS eight point two megapixel which is plenty for most photography -- even wholesalers."
" And interchangeable lenses and manual controls that if you lot of creative freedom in the shot to take. The most importantly -- SP five frames per second in the caption publish you never thought you'd get."
