CES 2010

CES 2010 (Consumer Electronics Show) is upon us once more and as always, the tech is just getting better and better. Here are some of my fave previews:

Ultra-thin on-wall speaker Mythos XTR-50. The XTR-50 offers an alternative o chunky speakers next to your flatscreen. At just 38mm deep it can be wall-mounted alongside your telly.

O.R.B. It might look like nothing more than a ring at first glance, but this finger-worn device can sync with your mobile phone. It has a vibratory alert and a tiny screen that shows caller ID, text messages, and meeting reminders from your mobile. Flip it open and it converts into a headset.

ATI Radeon HD 5870. This super powerful graphics card is the first of the DirectX 11 generation, and is able to connect up to six high-definition displays for a full surround-visual experience.

Asus Ee Reader. The twin-screen book-like layout promises to break new ground in tablet computing territory.

OLED (organic light-emitting diode) display technology is likely to reach the 40-inch sized monitors from the Sony, Samsung and LG this year.
