I swear, one of these days I will make it out to CES (Consumer Electronics Show). I mean 8000 vendors with new unseen gadgets would be like Heaven on Earth.
Nexus One Review (all the apps he shows are on the Droid) Apparently he’s impressed with the 1ghz Snapdragon cpu in the Nexus One. “I will abandon the iPhone because I think this is in many ways much better than the iPhone”, said Leo Laporte. This will be available on the Verizon network Spring of 2010. Seriously, watch these videos. If you don’t have time now, then check them out when you can.

Leo @ CES2010
Jan 7th
Hmm…weird that on Leo Laporte’s coverage of CES2010 he mentioned that they tried Sprint’s 4G and all the other phone service providers YET VERIZON’S DATA NETWORK WAS THE ONLY ONE THAT COULD KEEP UP WITH THEIR STREAM….hmmmm….appears as though AT&T’s “better 3g network” commercials are a bunch of malarkey and do not apply in the real world. It’s a shame they have to blatantly lie to keep people from leaving, don’t ya think?
Edit: Streaming Video removed from this post. A static version of the portion mentioned in this post will be put here (if I can find it). If you would like to view the streaming video of Leo’s Show please see it under “Live Streams”.

Xbox 360 Media Woes
I know it’s an old article but I was talking with Frohboy about this so I decided to throw it up. Wish they would just port Boxee to the 360 and not just computers and the Apple TV. But anyway, maybe we will get Hulu at some point soon anyway. I’m not quite sure why we don’t have a browser yet. I mean, I even had a browser on my original Xbox (obviously not stock..but still). Anyway, I’m sure it will be done at some point in the future. At least for the meantime I’m able to dish out my media from my home server to the 360 nicely.

Oh yea, there’s also a program you can check out that will let you stream Hulu, Youtube, etc to your 360, PS3 and such but you still need a computer to run the service on. I’m not using it because I’d rather wait until it streams straight to the box.

You might want to skip through some….I’ll put up more links…Of course there’s probably not anyone reading these….gah….
Mark my words…if Boxee goes public…I’m investing…as soon as I saw it I knew it was something to invest in…but of course i’m a long time user and fan of XBMC…so…yea…
Seems like USB 3.0 or “USB Superspeed” was a little bit of a let down speed-wise but I’m sure it will pick it up…gah…5GB speeds…yummm
If this doesn’t work, here’s the link…
Check it…Dick Tracy watch…It’s an LG Cellphone watch…but I just saw that it freakin has two-way video conferencing in the watch…so now you can finally go Dick Tracy on their ass…
Also, I have no idea how….and I should considering what I do…but somehow Panasonic showed a 1 inch thick Plasma TV to hang on your wall and they have a 1/3 inch one coming….wth…skip to around 19:30 for this part…BTW…that 120HZ stuff is already old…LOL…now we are going 240HZ
