Sony LocationFree by Josh Rubin
Comprised of a 12.1-inch wireless touch screen LCD monitor and a base station, Sony's LocationFree personal TV system allows users to experience television, video, Internet browsing/streaming video, e-mail, and digital photos--- all while mobile and without a PC. It can also be used to control most home A/V components.
LocationFree is expected to be released later this year.
Is convergence finally maturing? Sony seems to be getting it more and more these days. If this thing only had a built in DVD player, it would be even better.

Exactly. What makes more sense is having a color screen on an MP3 player with the ability to store and review digital photos....

Sony TG3E HD Video Camera
Sony's new titanium HD cam is the epitome of consumer-friendly.

The button allows the shooter to simply point and shoot without any concern for settings. While a great feature for most, utilizing...

Apple TV v2
Adding a few capabilities that help realize its full potential, the newly-launched version of Apple's computer-to-TV entertainment software is a massive improvement over the original. The biggest plus for aesthetes like us is the 1080p output which means you can stream HD movies, TV shows and podcasts (including featured titles like CHV!) with little more than a click in iTunes (TV and movies will...

Philips Prestigo Touch Screen Universal Remote
Beautifully designed, highly functional and easy to set-up, Philips' Prestigo remote rivals top-of-the-line models with similar features but costs significantly less. The latest model, the STR9320 (still yet to hit the market), hosts 300,000 devices in its memory, requiring little more than a few taps to program it to work with up to 20 components. But the "activity" settings are the real revelation, allowing...
