" Wow. This episode of Tekzilla has brought to you by the XP media smart server powered by Microsoft windows home server. Virgin America this is out of fly people the official airline for Revision 3 -- yes. And godaddy.com. How -- Norton welcome to Tekzilla product I've just returned from Las Vegas after attending the consumer electronics show we are tired out. And we had so much -- yes we couldn't fit it all into the live shows so without further ado here's one more Tekzilla from CS 2009."

" Our favorite resource for cell phone interviews he knows his -- Sega PC magazine joins us actually PC mag dot com which. -- Yeah where the PC mag digital network now 100% digital. Audience but it's all the same reviews same quality you still have like nine he reviewed every so on the planet -- I'm done more than 425. Cellphone reviews and so basically if you want to know what's going on in -- of technology this is demanding go to -- Should we talk about anything else are we just start with Paul and his palm back -- gonna survive did they actually just palm no longer -- I think is what people are asking. Palm is the big story in the show for me and yes."

" That palm -- or more specifically the web no less the software on the creek is the biggest thing since the first icon and cellphones."

" It does stuff that genuinely nobody else does and it does it beautifully."

" You type in us energy. Which is aware that always makes me cringe when I hear it applied -- technology what's that what's that actually doing in this case is something called contact synergy and it is a great idea and it's totally new here. It's take all of your contacts all of your people from all around the -- and everybody you know on FaceBook and Twitter in outlook. Putting them all together into one address book."

" Reconciling them and letting you contact them by however is the right way to contact and it makes it -- people centric -- it."

" so want to talk to Bob and automatically sensitive FaceBook it was like my boss and automatically sends an email I was -- my wife and automatically calls and."

" Bingo you start you start text messaging me -- in my computer. How that conversation becomes and I am conversation same -- same threat that's really smart how about the heartbreaking is up there with the operating system -- was excited about the part of the hardware is okay I consider the hardware neutral the hardware isn't going to -- Isn't the sexiest hardware out there no there's a lot of decent hardware out there -- the software Susie turn it on its wow so what else is."

" It's been exciting in -- remind you know Nokia Sony Ericsson I -- who whose other doing who else is doing something exciting insult."

" All those other big guys are really waiting for there's two cell -- shows coming in the next three months and I've been told by Nokia Sony Ericsson Motorola whoever. That at mobile world congress in Barcelona with his mid February and that CT I -- wireless here in Las Vegas in April that's when those big announcements coming. But I have seen two other trends here that have really thrilled. First of all there's an amazing amount of movement around mobile TV. There's four different competing mobile to. TV's -- it's it's it's almost like this war activity on competing standards and I was using any useful products for the consumer. Absolutely a lot these products aren't going to break until later this here there's two different satellite TV systems. Just announced that this channel satellite TV to cell phones satellite TV your car. Okay and again that's the salaries of exactly satellite TV it's your car belonged to really excites me is something called AT SE emanate from weren't mobile DTV. This is TV to cellphones broadcast to buy -- all of your local stations do it yes it's broadcast in bands in their existing channels. They can use whatever of their content they want your local CBS NBC ABC affiliate can now broadcast a special self."

" On channel that sounds like. So they would be huge in Japan but not as successful in the states -- really excited about it -- I'm excited that I lofty thinking again I have -- and you in the subway wanting of that title actually -- kids a look at them is really LCD accessories any battery users that pretty much everybody wait for the mobile congress in Barcelona."

" There's actually a couple of small companies out there there that are doing some fun stuff and I really like the tiny company called logic wireless. And they have a phone call the bolt which has a built in projector. Really yes it can project a movie onto a screen in front of it. And the story it is hang up adaptive on the plane via the story in this company is as fun as their phone. They are they're literally all college kids nobody in this company's 124. They're financing it off credit cards and their parents money. They are this is the American dream they're a bunch of young kids with a dream and -- technology and want to make it happen -- they accidentally shipped products. Yet it sounds like it it sounds like they're gonna be able to make a couple of thousand hopefully sell them to aficionados. And use that a springboard to in the next great protector. As soon as it's GSM isn't GSM phone absolutely anything -- And there's a lot of Bluetooth going on that other."

" Everybody -- Valerie of the superior within the last Bluetooth accessory every device they all still sound like compressed Bluetooth audio. Is it time to really step -- we have a decent wireless connection."

" well there's there's sort of two -- there number one voice does a lot of good work being done on noise cancellation. -- Motorola just after crystal talk plus it's the next level of their noise cancellation you can bet Alex the -- people are working on it. Everybody noise cancellation is pushing forward every six months. However Bluetooth stereo is stuck in the dark ages listening to music wirelessly it is -- it sounds like crap there's no accident site. That's unfortunate. Any other things an exciting it's -- Nielsen you know."

" We'll keep an -- on my coverage in my reviews in PC mag dot com I'm gonna start reviewing the stuff McCain mounted this show within the next few weeks. And and it's gonna. We'll have links on the website they do -- thanks us for coming out great stuff has always always good to see if things."

" We're here at they've created that CS 3009 taking a look at poker -- HD. This little guy right here as eight gigabytes of storage and also won tons of loads YouTube photo bucket and box. It's really nice to be taken fun videos you want to stand on their online as fast as possible. It's also got recording 720. 89. That's pretty nice thing also included HDMI cable right witness so this -- and down and going to be too isn't every night probably isn't fantastic but it's pretty decent and it's going to be 299 dollars and available right now from creative gotten. This disease."

" 3M M pro once and it they portable rejected it can cut your phone or any other device -- the outputs video. And I didn't think it got ET AS video also does not complying in and just. Don't look it up -- up the area that you want to protect your video on tips and it's got seven and then some brightness and sides beats game video so. The highest incidence but it's still pretty bad for all intents and purposes. This their prototype device the end and -- money and now this will go into cell phones and don't even need this extra. He's good to see yourself on and video them. This -- ourselves right now it's 359 dollars at 640 by 480 resolution and seven -- and brightness and this little guy hopefully we'll be seeing sometime in the next here."

" LTV that CS 2009 talking with -- bell and LT and can you explain the LT lots final element to -- yes the watchdog is an unbelievable device in his -- lovely watch the same time and had a summer home built into. The phone itself is very very -- not just your regular typical phone. You can text messaging on at its built an MP3 player built into it it is a water resistant so of the training you don't like knowing I don't worry about taking off throw you -- person perfectly fine. But it has some amazing features on invisible touch screen device so you literally just tap the screen and navigate through the phone. But my favorite feature on the watch it actually has a two way I'd have a camera suited to a video conferencing on the phone as well on your watch your watch."

" and so is this is really usable I mean how easy is going to be to go Dick Tracy style and then talk on your watch now."

" It's actually very easy to use high it has voice activated dialing into literally -- declared -- call home in the hall won't call your home Oreo. You can talk kind of like Dick Tracy 42 new exclusive content. One of the reasons we have Bluetooth going to because Obama also has a built in MP3 player. They don't listen to your music. Through your Bluetooth headphones as well that makes a lot more sense -- have a headset on your ear and then just be able to dialing and voice activation stuff from allot exactly but this this speaker phone and it's very loud it's very nice you don't have the for the phone a -- here. To use it it he could actually talk harmlessly he keep it and horrible -- of your driving. You can hold -- to -- will turn on the speaker phone. And you could just talk way -- could just turn on the camera make people think you're drunk if you're driving it's what I -- magazine hello nature and you know and people went in tiny tiny Bluetooth nearly there and you think talking to themselves nebula going to look crazy talk to their risk exactly but. It's amazing device what is it going to be available and you have any idea of the pricing or anything like that no idea pricing at the harbor has been finalized yet. However will be launching second half of this year in here."

" We like to take the time now to thank one of our sponsors virgin America had the official Carolina textile live at CES. Flying to be a frustrating experience traffic jams long lines on pleasant flight well you know mark. Virgin America is all about -- to -- fun exhilarating and relaxing and it looks to not trend. Inside amenities like movies music TVC -- C chat teams and by mid 2009 Wi-Fi across an entire."

" Or delete everything is at your fingertips all you have to do is sit back relax and enjoy the flight plus they have high quality food available for purchase with the -- system. And to access feeling you can join them on the community site Twitter FaceBook and YouTube. But you want airline experience that's fun and exciting what can explain at www. Virgin America dot com."

" here at digital experience that CS 2009 -- equipment and taking a look at I can't and that's going to be every iPhone that's coming out and Martin's. It's all need to do. Click the I think that right there and then you can choose your city and then pick -- radio -- it makes me deep. And it'll pull down all the metadata -- that song attack ads playing at that time. And the best part is that if you haven't device like equipment navigator here once he's like your space and it automatically changing parts radio stations that particular money want to listen to him. And this is the navigator as commencement fifty dollars and is available right. -- At digital experience that CS 2009 taking a look at -- it's easy. Mobile social networking device and -- and dean. And got really cool thing about it is that it's running android so this is one of the earth like that we've seen -- actually. Mobile Internet device and -- you can see here. Just like the -- you can pull out that -- the menus from here apparently this device to watch silently will not be able to access the Internet donors BDO raining and cellular. And they're going to be working with a solid state drive in the future this is just a prototype -- expecting to see him. Q three -- this year and an iPod hi it's gonna be out probably around 140 nights -- definitely a good deal want to check on your mobile social networks and again."

" Yeah CS 2009 talking with Michael from -- and taking a look at this wind. Tail winds and now this is eight electric bicycle it is that I battery power guys sell. And I. As little as a soccer -- about it. It was not I have to Sam's little bit wobbly at first took a little getting used it once I got the hang event like this -- and when you couple this -- that amazing it's predicting. So tell me about the -- sort of went backwards that the Penalosa spike so you have to be paddling. When your -- you can turn the power on industry power settings and then you feel are his chances you as ago. And once you stop and start posting it turns out Baghdad if you ever stop peddling or even break at all -- just needs a battery and you're just back to regular -- And if I remember correctly is an eight feet by his internal if you like so when somebody you have to be -- at all times -- switching gears -- despite -- just make it. Well opponents of the signal light you know high gear he stopped want to suffer lower -- he does but again you want instantly now -- San Francisco and bank. That's what I think it's kind of kept me from riding a bike or sitting too much because I just can't help those that -- Let you have the power the power -- here and gigabytes of up to three might be able to get up there's like 45 -- no sorry you know at least 33 -- And we it would definitely be viewed this you can select the power you want. So on a flat surface you may want just a little bit of power plant. Beautiful facility pretty good at that -- highest setting. And then you can't really would ever hearing you want to view and it'll push right up we have that speeds going uphill -- fourteen. And sixteen miles an hour and then now I'm flaps come close to seventy -- a lot faster on a regular bike. I end this flaw has been around for awhile or at least have seen similar to science that's what's new in this version is actually has had read by years of electric bikes. This is the first through detailing. In this has the Toshiba SC IB battery technology. Anyway that this allows battery charge. Report charges with under thirty minutes -- so not very long -- as compared do you read for hours. All the in the black market and how long battery lasting. Batter -- you like twentieth when I'm miles. And I'm not for -- actually -- charges leading the charge cycles and industry standard is about 500000. Warranty is better warranty. For 2000 charge cycles we've tested as high as 6000 charge cycles Susan last -- and long time -- it will plus pricing and availability. 3000 -- the price and it is currently available at any operation would -- in the US fantastical thank you very much as pets check out Michael various it to me kind of got it right this thing that they do lineup Anderson might think it."

" All right he yelled we love you fragment especially the windows machines it's deeper. 2009 is the latest version of my favorite professional -- and interesting things for their enterprise features in the consumer model home version sells for eight year. 29 dollars but the interesting thing about over the professional into the enterprise features dance -- terabyte hard drives. This task in making -- never any real time basically. Resource allocation complex so -- runs in the background and it runs happy that they're really like -- built on the fragmentation which came out last year. Which means it corrects files as windows right -- As windows writes them back right after windows right things and I tell windows what view the latest with the -- fragment that this will actually bring everything back together. And -- what exactly you'd never be fragment drive especially a windows system. Did you view an incredible free performance there's one more feature that I really liked have a new tool for the answers to optimize its 45 dollars on top of the home version. And it's actually targeting solid state drive what's really interesting because we solid state drives work. They tend to -- Carly didn't performance and battery if you went after you buy something saying that book witnesses to drive your notebook. You can see some amazing performance degradation I've seen it a little bit these guys are saying it's pretty amazing. Like. Really interesting stuff just a few thousand -- what. -- get this in protesting."

" Sometimes you can't resist the shiny and we found some really shiny stepped down in the south hall Las Vegas convention center like all the battle holding the -- in -- series 1112 inch notebooks. We like CLU backlit screens core two duo CPUs and built in that -- we really want a bamboo track pad. -- is holding -- about the fascinating even behind glass here -- pictures single flat piece of plastic map screen don't want and the motherboard the keyboard at the other. They Oregon it is to a standard you -- Fully unfold demo features coffee -- and decide that its cover -- be made of recyclable paper a notebook public use that could constantly changing. I've got a thing for HDTV mouse premier about the BT FF 3765. Fidelity Lois broke out into thinking about I've ever seen. Point 37 inches and capable of holding up to a hundred pound monitor from 37 to 65 it is. With a slick free -- brackets tigers breed isn't out yet and always has something interesting it's yet this year with a trio of wireless in my boxes. The top of the line thousand dollars wirelessly to your -- after using ultra wide band. And visual with the -- hosted the compression period 1080. And won't get it doesn't recognize this -- have to work through walls. If you demand under -- The only a couple of hundred feet to get -- TV wirelessly to your bibles -- 24 frames per second or city I think he frames per second video over five gigahertz frequency. Along with you don't five want to stereo audio. He 399 dollar box is one major copy it's like excite home. Finally the gap between the -- offers the ability to carry the channel LP CM audio along with according corporate data and video signal up to sixty -- think that's what home look here 600 dollars. Sad to think what this box that today's episode Tekzilla godaddy.com. -- want to make an impact on line go to dot com has would you be. Starting at less than five dollars a month web hosting from godaddy.com includes 99 point 9% up on 147 support and fully accept the GoDaddy hosted. An action game being played the course we've all over fifty free applications like word -- you -- Drupal OS commerce and more. Kodiak can't make it easy to customize your own virtual dedicated server -- one of -- popular landmarks like your old -- of windows server -- all the plan options you need. Want to scored just yeah of course you you enter code tech watch that -- he -- want to check out we'll score additional 10% off your entire order. So after it's built why would she decide to -- the newspaper here Tekzilla. If your between Internet and godaddy.com. And use that code he became one when you."

" We here at CS 2009 with our go to HDTV guy Robert -- from -- evening and hello to welcome to the surely having fun. I'm having fun today is -- again went. They coordinate my eyes now I can't keep track at this point anyway I want to ask you what are some of your favorite TV -- so hard to send this here."

" Well without doubt one of the big items this here's just decreasing captain speaking of as many as possible literally and pretty much -- on only beginning point. Panasonic has branded plasma that going to solve this here that would be about an inch. That's a dramatic reduction technology going to look like put up a picture frame along exactly but I think even more impressive was that in their -- and -- prototype what's can help you there next year the year after. A third of an -- thing. And perhaps more surprising was that they're claiming going to be able to achieve energy star three remains. Which I never thought wasn't. Because the LCD gets pretty easy time -- targets for good energy efficiency. Possibly there has always been handicapped that things and if they can achieve that that you know something really technically. And for TV's this here worsen the trends that you're seeing in terms of the tech it is going into the integrating war broadband content and also just. Making that Internet connected -- and -- Yahoo! widgets. Them being you know here -- here a lot of on the -- generation it offers a platform that's fairly restrictive and that's the one thing I've talked to all the manufactured thing long. If we're gonna add these features for TV would only -- when you -- action do we -- and the people providing that type of those programs and content for the -- that's. Seem to be going along with us you know we're not restricting you want to use our continent in addition to others analyzed together and once I don't. You know in addition to the widget styles. I'm open system like Netflix and Orville Wright he mean in addition there -- other continents you've -- and I'm wrong and let's look this gesture based on from Toshiba. That is the closest thing -- see into the quote unquote a what was -- I'm thinking I'm I'm I'm majority or minority report style control -- display. I never thought you know that's movie that's kind of fancy they have the system becomes very very close to achieving that in reality. They can essentially put an -- camera on talk to. TV and it shines bright light that it. Different ones you don't see it and using your hands you can control in this case demonstrating -- which is just phenomenal so there's a grid of photos in literally. Using them the cursor on the screen using only your hands and move those albums left to right so the effect you get on an iPod iPhone reading this kind of slide your finger across the scroll all right man that's so cool and even brings up -- globe view where it's like all the photos and we'll spin the globe grab your photos -- and that's got even like multi touch it it's not. But it's close enough where you're going okay. That you of the tech demo you can see that coming so as a prototype does not something that's coming out this year totally Amanda widgets and brought in --"

" On the -- is there any other technical advance seed Venus and picture detail improvements even if you have a 1080. It's not necessarily displaying full 1080 resolution with any material regardless of what is it just the crossing behind the scenes. On the LCD -- they're doing something called 240 -- technology. Now this couple weirdness. He admits the holding a want there's only two companies doing true 240 -- refresh rates and Samsung Sony and everyone else taking their 120 -- panel and utilizing scanning backlight technology -- to refresh rate. It provides better utility 120 -- but until we get in the lab we want to see how well here's the tree -- weird stuff. In the case the plasma panels. The latest generation especially had a pencil and they're showing off how even the previous -- are getting about 900 lines of resolution out of 1080. The latest -- is doing -- full 1080 and it's just. You see it and happiness. So -- Blu-ray how are people getting HD content on TV this year there's lots to."

" Link techno. You know it is not achieve the same level of quality picture quality with -- Blu-ray material but it's civilian matter and listening coding. But there's a lot of now you -- a lot of companies and directly to the -- himself and through services like mention Netflix offers some HD content. Steve light yes you're right look inequality in -- dvd the first smaller -- department again and you don't want the convenience factor. It's compelling things happen and is buried there but -- mailboxes like a little wooden box that downloads it's better compression. Better picture quality and it looks great on 65 inch screen although the pricing it's more expensive and -- only. Netflix style and on. -- Robert thank you so much equipment is anything lately hopelessness and check Amazon. All the major manufacturers most amazing news for 2009 and now. I -- anything a couple of hot."

" not something you think about web page with the company right -- actually third new link system is pretty amazing you're looking at the ability to unlock a lot from anywhere you have Internet access whether it's computer or cell phone. It's a pretty cool concept and it's actually pretty affordable for the first time. This is the slate base station for 299 dollars -- base station the TV wade -- wave networking to work with lots your house -- base station analog. And for 1299 a month relax and be able to access this seat house is locked up my kids they lose -- additional locks -- 199 dollars to really give -- an idea. Really affordable and it looks really really easy to set up place -- we trust. These but it wasn't Portland kind of want to get the service but you know like it's a pretty cool idea would like to see them."

" Ever hear the NBC universal food and I'm talking with -- editor in chief of engadget dot com thank you very much for being our I'm always always a pleasure along."

" Joining you."

" I know it's not as we as your double lines really -- the mountain -- on that is sweet yeah all of us I smell that it now after."

" Four days five days I have been your gurus and -- and I know that's and very well they sent out -- it's the Senate about your work. Nelson that's letting people do as good as it."

" So I ask you a lot of people over the course of CS with a favorite products aren't -- you be a good guy to come here. Because I knew so well. She didn't like it would experience is really kind of let you down yeah."

" Yeah yeah well. They're gonna view. One of the ones that kind of standout -- it says the swap radios flush SanDisk thing. And what it's essentially -- MP3 player but. You only have. A thousand songs -- they choose the songs it's like now that's what I call music but a thousand songs. He can't take them off you can't swap them out is just that's it you've I had. You've got this thousand songs. And and you have to buy another one. And here I guess if you -- that you can't think -- the value by the slobbering slot radio. Three or whatever. Let's -- it top forty hit music. Doesn't mean really left now well yeah and if you actually hit Judy going to the products. You know even if you really like that stuff eventually ordered -- up to your stock and I wanted monstrosity mills gave you a hard time. Touch screen walkman hasn't really had a -- admit and then we actually saw inside was revealing you know here TS. Can be dying to get hands on with the you know the main thing we like to do is get something play around that. Show that interface hands on time. Glass jar -- don't like heavy glass case and they won't take it out we that's -- ten times making promises they'll give them -- o'clock we'll take that case. They would not take down. Was our theory is this just. Show all that stuff is just ask not what -- like -- pennies I think it's like I've about filled with rocks flour you know."

" Thanks so much for coming up on stage and you can tell us about things technology down a little bit this here about fact that access my win some good stuff to kind of counting on an overnight thing. He doesn't senior CS coverage you can check out and CEO is not engadget dot com this of course I'm supposed to be so much yeah. I can't stand."

" Probably my favorite thing that I seen here at digital experience this here and died the Nvidia geforce 3-D vision. And mrs.

" You know they're there there's less of that that you aren't always found an older -- Moron. My name mechanism can't handle that kind of what everything sensory input and flashy kind of like yeah stuff gas. That act I I experienced less of it but the technology itself is really I'm literally in the end. Your face it's very cool I guy's behavior that you must -- classes here muscular who went integration or asserted that the particulars are glad -- agree or is it like it means that might want to lose lose -- yesterday.

" For all of us at tech so we really want to thank you guys for watching our coverage of CS 2009 for more videos can head over to CES style revision3.com. If you want to send us a question Texans want. The producer at tech so ever visit Wii dot com."

" Wow. This episode of Tekzilla has brought to you by the XP media smart server powered by Microsoft windows home server. Virgin America this is out of fly people the official airline for Revision 3 -- yes. And godaddy.com. How -- Norton welcome to Tekzilla product I've just returned from Las Vegas after attending the consumer electronics show we are tired out. And we had so much -- yes we couldn't fit it all into the live shows so without further ado here's one more Tekzilla from CS 2009."

" Our favorite resource for cell phone interviews he knows his -- Sega PC magazine joins us actually PC mag dot com which. -- Yeah where the PC mag digital network now 100% digital. Audience but it's all the same reviews same quality you still have like nine he reviewed every so on the planet -- I'm done more than 425. Cellphone reviews and so basically if you want to know what's going on in -- of technology this is demanding go to -- Should we talk about anything else are we just start with Paul and his palm back -- gonna survive did they actually just palm no longer -- I think is what people are asking. Palm is the big story in the show for me and yes."

" That palm -- or more specifically the web no less the software on the creek is the biggest thing since the first icon and cellphones."

" It does stuff that genuinely nobody else does and it does it beautifully."

" You type in us energy. Which is aware that always makes me cringe when I hear it applied -- technology what's that what's that actually doing in this case is something called contact synergy and it is a great idea and it's totally new here. It's take all of your contacts all of your people from all around the -- and everybody you know on FaceBook and Twitter in outlook. Putting them all together into one address book."

" Reconciling them and letting you contact them by however is the right way to contact and it makes it -- people centric -- it."

" so want to talk to Bob and automatically sensitive FaceBook it was like my boss and automatically sends an email I was -- my wife and automatically calls and."

" Bingo you start you start text messaging me -- in my computer. How that conversation becomes and I am conversation same -- same threat that's really smart how about the heartbreaking is up there with the operating system -- was excited about the part of the hardware is okay I consider the hardware neutral the hardware isn't going to -- Isn't the sexiest hardware out there no there's a lot of decent hardware out there -- the software Susie turn it on its wow so what else is."

" It's been exciting in -- remind you know Nokia Sony Ericsson I -- who whose other doing who else is doing something exciting insult."

" All those other big guys are really waiting for there's two cell -- shows coming in the next three months and I've been told by Nokia Sony Ericsson Motorola whoever. That at mobile world congress in Barcelona with his mid February and that CT I -- wireless here in Las Vegas in April that's when those big announcements coming. But I have seen two other trends here that have really thrilled. First of all there's an amazing amount of movement around mobile TV. There's four different competing mobile to. TV's -- it's it's it's almost like this war activity on competing standards and I was using any useful products for the consumer. Absolutely a lot these products aren't going to break until later this here there's two different satellite TV systems. Just announced that this channel satellite TV to cell phones satellite TV your car. Okay and again that's the salaries of exactly satellite TV it's your car belonged to really excites me is something called AT SE emanate from weren't mobile DTV. This is TV to cellphones broadcast to buy -- all of your local stations do it yes it's broadcast in bands in their existing channels. They can use whatever of their content they want your local CBS NBC ABC affiliate can now broadcast a special self."

" On channel that sounds like. So they would be huge in Japan but not as successful in the states -- really excited about it -- I'm excited that I lofty thinking again I have -- and you in the subway wanting of that title actually -- kids a look at them is really LCD accessories any battery users that pretty much everybody wait for the mobile congress in Barcelona."

" There's actually a couple of small companies out there there that are doing some fun stuff and I really like the tiny company called logic wireless. And they have a phone call the bolt which has a built in projector. Really yes it can project a movie onto a screen in front of it. And the story it is hang up adaptive on the plane via the story in this company is as fun as their phone. They are they're literally all college kids nobody in this company's 124. They're financing it off credit cards and their parents money. They are this is the American dream they're a bunch of young kids with a dream and -- technology and want to make it happen -- they accidentally shipped products. Yet it sounds like it it sounds like they're gonna be able to make a couple of thousand hopefully sell them to aficionados. And use that a springboard to in the next great protector. As soon as it's GSM isn't GSM phone absolutely anything -- And there's a lot of Bluetooth going on that other."

" Everybody -- Valerie of the superior within the last Bluetooth accessory every device they all still sound like compressed Bluetooth audio. Is it time to really step -- we have a decent wireless connection."

" well there's there's sort of two -- there number one voice does a lot of good work being done on noise cancellation. -- Motorola just after crystal talk plus it's the next level of their noise cancellation you can bet Alex the -- people are working on it. Everybody noise cancellation is pushing forward every six months. However Bluetooth stereo is stuck in the dark ages listening to music wirelessly it is -- it sounds like crap there's no accident site. That's unfortunate. Any other things an exciting it's -- Nielsen you know."

" We'll keep an -- on my coverage in my reviews in PC mag dot com I'm gonna start reviewing the stuff McCain mounted this show within the next few weeks. And and it's gonna. We'll have links on the website they do -- thanks us for coming out great stuff has always always good to see if things."

" We're here at they've created that CS 3009 taking a look at poker -- HD. This little guy right here as eight gigabytes of storage and also won tons of loads YouTube photo bucket and box. It's really nice to be taken fun videos you want to stand on their online as fast as possible. It's also got recording 720. 89. That's pretty nice thing also included HDMI cable right witness so this -- and down and going to be too isn't every night probably isn't fantastic but it's pretty decent and it's going to be 299 dollars and available right now from creative gotten. This disease."

" 3M M pro once and it they portable rejected it can cut your phone or any other device -- the outputs video. And I didn't think it got ET AS video also does not complying in and just. Don't look it up -- up the area that you want to protect your video on tips and it's got seven and then some brightness and sides beats game video so. The highest incidence but it's still pretty bad for all intents and purposes. This their prototype device the end and -- money and now this will go into cell phones and don't even need this extra. He's good to see yourself on and video them. This -- ourselves right now it's 359 dollars at 640 by 480 resolution and seven -- and brightness and this little guy hopefully we'll be seeing sometime in the next here."

" LTV that CS 2009 talking with -- bell and LT and can you explain the LT lots final element to -- yes the watchdog is an unbelievable device in his -- lovely watch the same time and had a summer home built into. The phone itself is very very -- not just your regular typical phone. You can text messaging on at its built an MP3 player built into it it is a water resistant so of the training you don't like knowing I don't worry about taking off throw you -- person perfectly fine. But it has some amazing features on invisible touch screen device so you literally just tap the screen and navigate through the phone. But my favorite feature on the watch it actually has a two way I'd have a camera suited to a video conferencing on the phone as well on your watch your watch."

" and so is this is really usable I mean how easy is going to be to go Dick Tracy style and then talk on your watch now."

" It's actually very easy to use high it has voice activated dialing into literally -- declared -- call home in the hall won't call your home Oreo. You can talk kind of like Dick Tracy 42 new exclusive content. One of the reasons we have Bluetooth going to because Obama also has a built in MP3 player. They don't listen to your music. Through your Bluetooth headphones as well that makes a lot more sense -- have a headset on your ear and then just be able to dialing and voice activation stuff from allot exactly but this this speaker phone and it's very loud it's very nice you don't have the for the phone a -- here. To use it it he could actually talk harmlessly he keep it and horrible -- of your driving. You can hold -- to -- will turn on the speaker phone. And you could just talk way -- could just turn on the camera make people think you're drunk if you're driving it's what I -- magazine hello nature and you know and people went in tiny tiny Bluetooth nearly there and you think talking to themselves nebula going to look crazy talk to their risk exactly but. It's amazing device what is it going to be available and you have any idea of the pricing or anything like that no idea pricing at the harbor has been finalized yet. However will be launching second half of this year in here."

" We like to take the time now to thank one of our sponsors virgin America had the official Carolina textile live at CES. Flying to be a frustrating experience traffic jams long lines on pleasant flight well you know mark. Virgin America is all about -- to -- fun exhilarating and relaxing and it looks to not trend.

And to access feeling you can join them on the community site Twitter FaceBook and YouTube. But you want airline experience that's fun and exciting what can explain at www. Virgin America dot com."

" here at digital experience that CS 2009 -- equipment and taking a look at I can't and that's going to be every iPhone that's coming out and Martin's. It's all need to do. Click the I think that right there and then you can choose your city and then pick -- radio -- it makes me deep. And it'll pull down all the metadata -- that song attack ads playing at that time. And the best part is that if you haven't device like equipment navigator here once he's like your space and it automatically changing parts radio stations that particular money want to listen to him. And this is the navigator as commencement fifty dollars and is available right. -- At digital experience that CS 2009 taking a look at -- it's easy. Mobile social networking device and -- and dean. And got really cool thing about it is that it's running android so this is one of the earth like that we've seen -- actually. Mobile Internet device and -- you can see here. Just like the -- you can pull out that -- the menus from here apparently this device to watch silently will not be able to access the Internet donors BDO raining and cellular. And they're going to be working with a solid state drive in the future this is just a prototype -- expecting to see him. Q three -- this year and an iPod hi it's gonna be out probably around 140 nights -- definitely a good deal want to check on your mobile social networks and again."

" Yeah CS 2009 talking with Michael from -- and taking a look at this wind. Tail winds and now this is eight electric bicycle it is that I battery power guys sell. And I. As little as a soccer -- about it. It was not I have to Sam's little bit wobbly at first took a little getting used it once I got the hang event like this -- and when you couple this -- that amazing it's predicting. So tell me about the -- sort of went backwards that the Penalosa spike so you have to be paddling. When your -- you can turn the power on industry power settings and then you feel are his chances you as ago. And once you stop and start posting it turns out Baghdad if you ever stop peddling or even break at all -- just needs a battery and you're just back to regular -- And if I remember correctly is an eight feet by his internal if you like so when somebody you have to be -- at all times -- switching gears -- despite -- just make it. Well opponents of the signal light you know high gear he stopped want to suffer lower -- he does but again you want instantly now -- San Francisco and bank. That's what I think it's kind of kept me from riding a bike or sitting too much because I just can't help those that -- Let you have the power the power -- here and gigabytes of up to three might be able to get up there's like 45 -- no sorry you know at least 33 -- And we it would definitely be viewed this you can select the power you want. So on a flat surface you may want just a little bit of power plant. Beautiful facility pretty good at that -- highest setting. And then you can't really would ever hearing you want to view and it'll push right up we have that speeds going uphill -- fourteen. And sixteen miles an hour and then now I'm flaps come close to seventy -- a lot faster on a regular bike. I end this flaw has been around for awhile or at least have seen similar to science that's what's new in this version is actually has had read by years of electric bikes. This is the first through detailing. In this has the Toshiba SC IB battery technology. Anyway that this allows battery charge. Report charges with under thirty minutes -- so not very long -- as compared do you read for hours. All the in the black market and how long battery lasting. Batter -- you like twentieth when I'm miles. And I'm not for -- actually -- charges leading the charge cycles and industry standard is about 500000. Warranty is better warranty. For 2000 charge cycles we've tested as high as 6000 charge cycles Susan last -- and long time -- it will plus pricing and availability. 3000 -- the price and it is currently available at any operation would -- in the US fantastical thank you very much as pets check out Michael various it to me kind of got it right this thing that they do lineup Anderson might think it."

" All right he yelled we love you fragment especially the windows machines it's deeper. 2009 is the latest version of my favorite professional -- and interesting things for their enterprise features in the consumer model home version sells for eight year. 29 dollars but the interesting thing about over the professional into the enterprise features dance -- terabyte hard drives. This task in making -- never any real time basically. Resource allocation complex so -- runs in the background and it runs happy that they're really like -- built on the fragmentation which came out last year. Which means it corrects files as windows right -- As windows writes them back right after windows right things and I tell windows what view the latest with the -- fragment that this will actually bring everything back together. And -- what exactly you'd never be fragment drive especially a windows system. Did you view an incredible free performance there's one more feature that I really liked have a new tool for the answers to optimize its 45 dollars on top of the home version. And it's actually targeting solid state drive what's really interesting because we solid state drives work. They tend to -- Carly didn't performance and battery if you went after you buy something saying that book witnesses to drive your notebook. You can see some amazing performance degradation I've seen it a little bit these guys are saying it's pretty amazing. Like. Really interesting stuff just a few thousand -- what. -- get this in protesting."

" Sometimes you can't resist the shiny and we found some really shiny stepped down in the south hall Las Vegas convention center like all the battle holding the -- in -- series 1112 inch notebooks.

" We here at CS 2009 with our go to HDTV guy Robert -- from -- evening and hello to welcome to the surely having fun. I'm having fun today is -- again went. They coordinate my eyes now I can't keep track at this point anyway I want to ask you what are some of your favorite TV -- so hard to send this here."

" Well without doubt one of the big items this here's just decreasing captain speaking of as many as possible literally and pretty much -- on only beginning point. Panasonic has branded plasma that going to solve this here that would be about an inch. That's a dramatic reduction technology going to look like put up a picture frame along exactly but I think even more impressive was that in their -- and -- prototype what's can help you there next year the year after. A third of an -- thing. And perhaps more surprising was that they're claiming going to be able to achieve energy star three remains. Which I never thought wasn't. Because the LCD gets pretty easy time -- targets for good energy efficiency. Possibly there has always been handicapped that things and if they can achieve that that you know something really technically. And for TV's this here worsen the trends that you're seeing in terms of the tech it is going into the integrating war broadband content and also just. Making that Internet connected -- and -- Yahoo! widgets. Them being you know here -- here a lot of on the -- generation it offers a platform that's fairly restrictive and that's the one thing I've talked to all the manufactured thing long. If we're gonna add these features for TV would only -- when you -- action do we -- and the people providing that type of those programs and content for the -- that's. Seem to be going along with us you know we're not restricting you want to use our continent in addition to others analyzed together and once I don't. You know in addition to the widget styles. I'm open system like Netflix and Orville Wright he mean in addition there -- other continents you've -- and I'm wrong and let's look this gesture based on from Toshiba. That is the closest thing -- see into the quote unquote a what was -- I'm thinking I'm I'm I'm majority or minority report style control -- display. I never thought you know that's movie that's kind of fancy they have the system becomes very very close to achieving that in reality. They can essentially put an -- camera on talk to. TV and it shines bright light that it. Different ones you don't see it and using your hands you can control in this case demonstrating -- which is just phenomenal so there's a grid of photos in literally. Using them the cursor on the screen using only your hands and move those albums left to right so the effect you get on an iPod iPhone reading this kind of slide your finger across the scroll all right man that's so cool and even brings up -- globe view where it's like all the photos and we'll spin the globe grab your photos -- and that's got even like multi touch it it's not. But it's close enough where you're going okay. That you of the tech demo you can see that coming so as a prototype does not something that's coming out this year totally Amanda widgets and brought in --"

" On the -- is there any other technical advance seed Venus and picture detail improvements even if you have a 1080. It's not necessarily displaying full 1080 resolution with any material regardless of what is it just the crossing behind the scenes. On the LCD -- they're doing something called 240 -- technology. Now this couple weirdness. He admits the holding a want there's only two companies doing true 240 -- refresh rates and Samsung Sony and everyone else taking their 120 -- panel and utilizing scanning backlight technology -- to refresh rate. It provides better utility 120 -- but until we get in the lab we want to see how well here's the tree -- weird stuff. In the case the plasma panels. The latest generation especially had a pencil and they're showing off how even the previous -- are getting about 900 lines of resolution out of 1080. The latest -- is doing -- full 1080 and it's just. You see it and happiness. So -- Blu-ray how are people getting HD content on TV this year there's lots to."

" Link techno. You know it is not achieve the same level of quality picture quality with -- Blu-ray material but it's civilian matter and listening coding. But there's a lot of now you -- a lot of companies and directly to the -- himself and through services like mention Netflix offers some HD content. Steve light yes you're right look inequality in -- dvd the first smaller -- department again and you don't want the convenience factor. It's compelling things happen and is buried there but -- mailboxes like a little wooden box that downloads it's better compression. Better picture quality and it looks great on 65 inch screen although the pricing it's more expensive and -- only. Netflix style and on. -- Robert thank you so much equipment is anything lately hopelessness and check Amazon. All the major manufacturers most amazing news for 2009 and now. I -- anything a couple of hot."

" not something you think about web page with the company right -- actually third new link system is pretty amazing you're looking at the ability to unlock a lot from anywhere you have Internet access whether it's computer or cell phone. It's a pretty cool concept and it's actually pretty affordable for the first time. This is the slate base station for 299 dollars -- base station the TV wade -- wave networking to work with lots your house -- base station analog. And for 1299 a month relax and be able to access this seat house is locked up my kids they lose -- additional locks -- 199 dollars to really give -- an idea. Really affordable and it looks really really easy to set up place -- we trust. These but it wasn't Portland kind of want to get the service but you know like it's a pretty cool idea would like to see them."

Good episode, I loved this years CES coverage. The beginning bit had me worried though, when they were in the studio and it was pitch-black. I thought it was going to be presented like that :P

Distracted

I have to point this out. Veronica is a major distraction from the items she is displaying. I recognize she is is major authority on the devices she displays. But her feminine magnetism simply sometimes overwhelms the noteworthiness of that device. Or maybe it's me. At any rate, I have to admit Veronica is a major reason I have to see every episode of Tekzilla. But I would definitely not feel so loyal to the show if she were simply a rapturously beautiful female but had sawdust for brains. Luckily her beauty is balanced by her intelligence and knowledge of the subjects she so competently covers.

Patrick does a good job too.
