CES 2009: Samsung P3 MP3 player
Samsung has launched something much less expensive at CES 2009 than everything of theirs mentioned so far. This is their take on the iPod touch known as the P3. See, it’s like mp3 but without the m. Clever, huh? No, not really.
The P3 is 0.39″ thick…
CES 2009: Camcorders go solid state with the 64GB SSD Samsung HMX-H106
Samsung has pulled another exclusive out the bag but for how long is another question. Among their fleet of camcorders just announced is the flagship Samsung HMX-H106 which is the first to feature a 64GB SSD, slightly depressingly giving it more storage than any hardware I own.
All this space means that you can record up to a staggering 12 hours of footage…
CES 2009: Panasonic's portable Blu-ray player
I guess now that Blu-ray discs are getting cheaper it’s only natural that portable players will come into their own, and Panasonic has made history by creating the worlds first travel Blu-ray DVD player. The DMP-B15 has a 8.9 inch WSVGA screen, and has a three hour rechargeable battery. More excitingly however is the fact that the machine has an HDMI slot which means you can hook it up to an
CES 2009: Samsung Luxia LED TV range – 1.6" thick including wall mount
The product that Samsung seems most proud of at CES 2009 is their low power, super thin Luxia range of LED TVs. The 8000, 7000, and, yes, 6000 thousand models sit between 44″ and 55″ on the diagonal and use 40% less power than normal flat screen TVs because of the use of low power LEDs…
CES 2009: Samsung press conference 22.00 GMT
Next up at CES 2009 is the turn of tech monster Samsung. It’s hard to tell what the world’s largest gadget makers will come up with this year. The trouble is they make just about everything, so who knows upon which band wagon it is they wish to jump. Quite possibly they’ll surprise us all and invent something on their own. I’ll let you know as soon as I do from 22.00 GMT…
CES 2009: Sansa slotRadio – 1000 "hand-picked" songs, you'll hate 95% of em
I’m developing a bit of a love/hate relationship with Sandisk. They swing wildly from releasing great, innovative stuff, to wasting plastic on awful products. Unfortunately slotRadio falls into the latter category.
Sansa slotRadio is an MP3 player that comes with 1000 songs pre-loaded. It’s essentially a music player for people who’ve got absolutely no interest in what music playing, as long as there’s something in the background. The songs come on a Sandisk microSD card, but they’re tied to the card with DRM, so you can’t do anything else with them. If you work your way through the thousand, then you can buy 1,000 more for $40 (£26).
My advice? Save your cash and stick to Last.fm. In the meantime, go check out our other CES coverage here.
