It's DL.TV's second day at CES (Friday, 1-6-05) and we've got another great show covering the vast range of tech-goodness!

Here's the deets:

  • The series 3 Tivo is finally here: word is the high-def recorder can hold up to 300 hours of video (By our calculations, that's almost enough for all of Fox's reality shows.)
  • Dell's XPS renegade combines an overclocked 4.26GHz dual core Pentium 955, and four 7800 GTX graphics chips (for a total of 2GB video ram). We think it'll make a good match for Dell's four megapixel 3007 LCD, for those who are not cost concious.
  • We grabbed four hard disk based camcorders that hold up to 30GB of data, 37 hours of video, and that we wish we could afford: the Sony DCR-SR100 ($1100), the JVC Everio GZ-MG37 ($800), Samsung's SC-X210L ($599.99), and the Hitachi DZGX3200A ($599).
  • Image stabilizing, 5MP+ cameras are getting cheap: the Kodak V570 ($399), Panasonic's DMZ-LZ5 ($280), and the Fujifilm V10 ($349) all provide awesome performance for less than $400.
  • Dynamism imports cool gadgets that are for sale only in Japan. Douglas Krone, CEO, brought us a tiny 0.32 lb Sanyo Xacti C6 camcorder, and the ultra-fashionable Nokia 7380 phone.
  • The Sony W810 and the Kyocera Strobe are two sweet cellphones.
  • Martin Sargent discovers the most sloth-inducing product at CES: HotSeat's gaming futon. For the more health conscious, he also found a video game machine that makes you sweat for each hitpoint.
  • Jim Louderback shows off the Eleksen smart fabric keyboard and its smart fabric backpack. This technology is going to be ubiquitous within a few years.
  • Celestron's SkyScout Personal Planetarium will keep amateur astronomers looking skyward.
  • The perfect companion for a Trans Europe trip should speak five languages, like music, and fit in your pants. Meet the multi-talented Garmin Nuvi 359 ($899) GPS device/Music Player/Translator.
  • The MobiTV 2 ($9.99/month) gives you television, and digital radio on a cellphone. Fox news, CNN, ESPN, NBC and other big content providers are signed up--need we say more?
  • Plus, ADS Tech's InstantHDTV ($129) gives you an over-the-air tuner with a PCI card for hard drive encoding; the LG FM30 media player ($199) has over 60 hours of battery life; Sony's new VAIO VGN-XZ170P ($2000) is made of carbon fiber, and has a battery-saving hybrid graphics system; and, Imation's flash wristband lets you carry 256MB of data in style.

I get the show every week but always just the audio; I very much appreciate the audio feed as it fits with my schedule better than a video version.

However, this particular episode I'm very happy to have a video version and am going to make the time to sit and watch it! Thanks as always for the great show.
