NOT CES 2008: Exclusive video of what WON'T be in Las Vegas this year
Hey everyone. What with all the talk of this “CES” thing that’s going on at the moment, I thought I’d give you an EXCLUSIVE look at a few of the products that won’t be on the show floor this year.
I’ll be revealing a two-year-old TV with NO HDMI sockets on it whatsoever, a six-year-old games console and a literally ancient digital cable box that’s definitely NOT rocking the crowds at the Vegas Convention Centre right now.
You won’t see these anywhere else! (apart from maybe at a dump or really poor friend’s house).

Check out this behemoth…err…um…what on earth is it?! Some as-yet-untransformed Transformer? Sadly it’s not a character from an edited-out scene, if you look a bit harder, it’s actually an Xbox 360/Wii/HD PVR/home theatre system/iPod dock/Netlinx control box hybrid.
Or the SE2 Labs’ Integrated Theater Console, if you want to get specific. It’s pretty much every piece of kit you…

Friend afflicted with the Red Ring of Death disease? Buy 'em a condolence card on Etsy
Gary has been busy skiving, err, sorry, scouring Etsy for homemade goodies over at Xboxer, and uncovered this condolence card for unfortunate souls plagued with the Red Ring of Death virus. You’d think once the situation got this bad, where people started making bloody cards expressing their sorrow over the 360s breaking down, Microsoft would wake up and realise something might indeed be wrong with the machines they’re shipping.
But noooo. Owners are still reporting their Xbox 360s are facing the same problems since launch, and Microsoft are still taking an age to send the refurbished RRoD machines out in replacement. It…

Opinion: HMV need more than gimmicks to attract kids to "cyber store"
Quick quiz now – do you still buy CDs on the high street? I rarely do these days, unless it’s an impulse buy in a sale as I browse, but then I don’t get much time to do that either like I used to. Let’s face it, we’re a cash rich, time poor society now and that means one thing – the Internet!
I’m not going to spit out the obvious downloading facts and figures that we all already know, digital music is big business and only a miniscule percentage of people reading this will never have bought or “found” a music track via the web…

Nintendo Wii sells 10.10 million units, soon to surpass Xbox 360
Somewhere in Mushroom Kingdom, Shigeru and Reggie are having a party that Freddie Mercury could only dream about. Dwarves dressed up as Mario, suspicious substances being consumed off the shells of dogs dressed up as Bowser, and a bevvy of beauties resembling Princess Peach prancing around in pink satin frocks…
