In-Win has gone with a more military theme at CES, previously hinted upon with products such as the Ammo 2.5" external. Several exciting custom paint jobs we're shown on exisiting cases, such as the Maelstrom, including a sharp desert camo Cobra theme. They also had a line of home theater PCs featuring mini-ITX motherboards and a gem finish. such as the Diva. They also showcased a rear monitor mount for the media PC's, completely hiding them from view.

The O-Ring was one of the more intriguing products, which is exactly as it sounds: a silicon ring. However, this purpose goes beyond sealant; the ring will form to your 2.5" external drive to help protect the drive and keep from contact scratches. The O-Ring also has a built-in USB transfer, so if you accidently leave it behind, you're still covered.

In-Win also had a few micro-ATX gaming chassis to show off, as well as some tower cases including the Griffin, the Ironclad, and the Fanqua.

Another very cool addition was the Metal Soul, a 2.5" enclosure similar to the Ammo (RFID key required for access), but with a slick metal skull theme.

Having the pleasure of working with Icy Dock many times in the past, one word comes to mind at the mention of the name: innovation. Little things that make life easier and simpler that you just can't believe hasn't been thought of before. There were several products at their booth this year at CES that held true, and provided great functionality as well.

The first was a 2.5" to 3.5" hard drive converter, which Icy Dock is well known for, that also supports SSD.

The popular MB668 external enclosure line saw and addition as well, providing a new family for USB 3.0 transfer interface, and of course screw-less design and one-tocuh back-up that made the MB668 so popular.

The USB 4-dock rack saw a new fan attachment as well, a product that works great for those needing an expansion on their media machine. A quad bay 2.5" to 5.25" SATA and SAS RAId module was also introduced.

Also showcased was the 2.5" to 3.5" converter rack that is absolutely tooless, even when installing it into a case that isn't otherwise tooless; just squeesze the brackets in the back to secure.

Perhaps the most demanding booth in the Gaming Showcase was the Lego Universe display. Several laptops hooked up to a larger screen for on-lookers littered the area around one of the largest columns I've ever seen, with art of that game pasted all around. With a chance to demo the game, signed up for beta testing, and an area to actually build an physical Lego mini-fig, this place was always busy.

Lego Universe is an upcoming MMORPG for, obviously, Lego, that plays much like past titles from the company. It has many RPG elements, including equipment, quests, inventory, and a customizable space ship. As you go through out the game, you learn of the conflict between good and corrupt imagination, imagination being the 'mana' of Lego Universe. You can attack free-roaming enemies, interact with NPC's, and join together with other players as well.

You'll collect many things during gameplay, including bricks that can be used for customization. There are also many hidden objects, such as flags, that go towards different achievements. Achievements have replaced any sort of level hieracrchy; instead of leveling from one to insert cap here, you'll complete quests and earn badges for a profile that can be viewed and compared by other players. You'll also find certain objects that will extend your stats, such as health or imagination, so there is a way to develop your character.

Continuing with their ongoing battle to enlighten gamers on the true causes of latency issues, Bigfoot Networks, developers of the widely popular Killer Technology network cards, had a few exciting announcements to share with us. The first was the unveiling of a free benchmark tool used and developed by BFN. The application runs in the background while you're in game, and record statistics such a latency and framerate, as well as a time stamp. This is useful when you notice a major flop during gameplay, you can exaime exactly what is was that caused it. This is the tool that technicians at BFN actually use, and the hope of making it public is to show people that it's often times a local problem with one's own equipment as opposed to common scapecoats such as ISPs.

This app is also compatible with alternate display screens, such as the LCD screens on the Logitech G13 and G19, so details and information can be displayed while in game!

The other exciting announcement was yet another successful side-by-side demonstration of a live game, featuring two computers running the exact same specifications, game, and server; the only difference was the presence of the Killer Xeno network card. You may remember the popular Team Fortress 2 demonstration not too long ago, this time BFN has partnered with Sony Online Entertainment and EverQuest.

For those who may not be familiar with Killer tehnology from Bigfoot Networks, your operating system is constantly under load during any process, and gaming only compounds it. Especially true during online gaming, the game is constantly being updated with information sent and received, and when left alone to the OS things can get jumbled and bogged down in a que line. The Killer technology helps to take the load of the OS, prioritizing packets of information specific to gaming and deals with them specifically, eliminating wait and increasing latency on the user end.

iBuyPower is a company specializing in custom gaming computers for both PC and laptop users. Their popular mobile gaming line, the Battalion series, saw an intriguing addition at CES 2010: touch screen.

The Battlation Touch line is the first multi-touch mobile gaming series, demonstrating both a graphically advanced game similar to Pong and World of Warcraft. To give you a bit of an idea of how this works, it's much like turning your screen into a large mouse; touching once will left click the desired item (such as selecting a spell) and continuing to hold your finger is like holding the left button down (like controlling the padel). Holding one finger on the screen and using another will right click, and a zoom function was also demonstrated in a rotating Earth model application by using both fingers at once.

Some exciting builds were also showcased in the suite, including the new Big Bang MSI board, using the Lucid Hydro chipset. Also displayed was the new PC360, which is as exactly as it sounds: the meeting of the PC and the Xbox 360. With some slight modifications to the NZXT Panzer box, a gutted 360 board is locatd at the top of the case with the rest of the PC components underneath. At the time of showing, the Xbox 360 still needed separate power and output from the PC (meaning a nice extra bulky power brick), but keep in mind this is still a concept. The Chimera 2 is brother to iBP's previous Chimera model, featuring a new paint job.

More down our alley, iBP was also revealing a first look at the Lan Warrior 2, a fully functional gaming computer designed for easy transport. No photos were allowed, but to give you an idea this case is a simple, slick black facade, large enough on the inside only what was necessary to fit one of the largest cards on the market and the HDD bay. With a nice, solid carrying handle on top as part of the frame, this is a product we're definitely looking forward to. And yes, liquid cooling will be an option. Estimated arrival time was Q1, around March.

Also showcased was the iBP exclusive Level 10 build, and this thing is heavy. While it demands respect and screams power, it is very heavy and will cost quite a bit to ship alone, not to mention the cost of the chassis and parts.

On the more smaller side, iBuyPower was showing off some of there external internal USB extensions. No, that's not a typo. These little pieces of hardware will extend the number of USB ports your mother board supports, and even includes up to two USB ports on the board itself. This is extremely useful if you traveling to LAN party and want to make sure your flash drive is secure, or have am ore permanent USB device, such as BlueTooth or a wireless receiver.

Turtle Beach is a company that got their start by manufacturing sound cards, and now a days are one of the leading makers of audio head sets. They had several new models to show at CES this year, ranging from console to PC. Staying true to their roots, however, Turtle Beach was showcasing the Riviera, a PCI expansion sound card with surround sound 5.1 and Windows 7 driver compatible.

On the PS3 side, the EarForce P21 provides stereo sound for use during online play, voice chat, or PSN. With the P21, game and sound are independent from one another, meaing that when you're under fire, you'll still be able to hear your allies trying to save your ass.

The Xbox 360 saw several products, starting with the XLC. This headset is a smaller type, but keep securely to your ears, with 40mm speakers and stereo in both ears. With an MSRP of $29.99, its one of the more affordable options.

The X31 features an RF wireless receiver, with a reception area of approximately 25 feet. This also features the stereo system and 40mm speakers, an MSRP's for $99.99.

The new X41 is the Mercedes of the 360 headsets, with Dolby 7.1 surround sound and 50mm speakers. This model also features voice playback, so you'll be able to actually hear your own voice so you know if you're yelling to loud. Chat boost is also featured in the X41, so voice won't be lost in the mayhem of combat. This headset also has a receiving stand that holds the hardware for the surround sound, and Turtle Beach has included an extra audio jack so when a friend comes over, an ordinary headset can be plugged in to experience the Dolby 7.1 experience.

The final product showcased was a very useful USB deviced, the Micro and Amigo II, that will allow Plug & Play audio without any drivers required from the system or the device itself. What this mean is that any computer, even one that may lack those annoying audio drivers of its own, can have this plugged in and instantly you will have a functioning audio jack. Finally!

9:00 AM - Today is the first official day of CES. I just got on the shuttle en route to the convention center. The first meeting of the day is slated to be at 9:30 with iSkin. Here's to the start of another exciting day of tech news, and announcements.

2:30 PM - Today has been absolutely crazy busy. The expo opened up promptly at 10:00 and I've been trading business cards, performing interviews, taking pictures, looting booths, and admiring booth babes ever since. Two booths were on the schedule thus far, and now I have more than 4 on my plate.

Meanwhile, I showed up an hour late for press lunch only to find out that they ran out. So, I'm eating cookies and bananas before A-DATA's press conference at 2.

5:30 PM - I'm not sure where the mix-up ocurred but I just sat through VESA DisplayPort's conference instead of A-DATA's. I met up with Adam afterwards, picked up some review products, a little more press information, and am happily back at the hotel. Time for some writing and if I'm lucky, a nap before parties tonight.

12:30 AM -After a long day of CES meetings, booth views, and interviews Adam and I made our way back to the hotel. We wrote up some of the articles of the day, ordered a pizza and anxiously awaited the Cooler Master party at the Aria. The party was stylish, enjoyable, and advantageous. Alex came home with Cannon digital camera, Wes with a Nintendo DSi, and Adam won a Cooler Master Sentinel.

The Kodak booth at CES 2010 was located in the corner of was very impressive, complete with stage an announcer welcoming visitors to CES. Kodak was excited to reveal four new devices, each featuring a very useful new tool, allowing users to select via camera where they would like photos to go, such as a local disk, Facebook, Flickr, or even an e-mail address, and upon connecting the device to a computer the pictures will automatically upload to the selected source

The first camera was the new Slice, featuring a touch screen that allows users to flip through stored images, or 'slice', to show-off photos easily. The camera also allows users to search through pictures by using certain filters, such as date, time, and face detection - that's right, this camera can sense a person's face a call up images which they are in. This model is scheduled for realse in quarter one of 2010, with an MSRP of $349.99.

The second line of cameras introduced a new color scheme, targeted towards on of the more popular demographics of Kodak camera users: middle-aged females. The EasyShare M family features a remote control, creating easy access to pictures and slideshows when the camera is connected to a TV. This camera does, of course, feature the same sharing abilities as the Slice.

The PlaySport pocket video camera is a very miniature model, designed to fit easily and comfortable for travel. More of the rugged target, the Playsport can be submersed in 10ft of water, and features a 2 hour battery life, and up to 10 hour of recording time with external card memory. With the included software, still images can be taken from video files.

The final device revealed was a new type of digital picture frame, the Pulse, whose value is truly behind the scenes. Similar to the previous camera's automatic sharing capabilities, the Pulse can be set to automatically receive and display images received from a multitude of places, including an e-mail address. This is an extremely useful feature for anyone, but even more so for those with family who aren't so tech savvy. Simply set the frame up and pictures can be constantly updates without messing with the storage device. Of course, e-mails must be verified not just any person can send the frame photos to display.

Hercules and Thrustmaster are two separate product lines owned by Guillemot, the former concentrating on sound and other computer hardware and the latter console gaming hardware. Thrustmaster had this misfortune of catching release dates just on the other end of the line where not too many new products were available for showcase. However, there were several updates to exisiting products that were featured.

The first is the MFD Cougar, an accessory that compliments the popular flight sticks from Thrustmaster. The Cougars come in packs of two, with up to eight supportable at a time, and feature customizable buttons to operate certain features of the flight sim. The peripherals not only make it much easier than trying to remember key bindings on the keyboard, but also helps to create the feeling of an actual cockpit.

The FGT race wheel, which was previously PC exclusive, is now being adapter for PS3 use as well, with a demonstration set up of Dirt 2. The Freestyle snow board attachment that clamps over the Wii Balance Board to give players an enhanced feeling of authenticity and control was also demo'd.

Several Wii Remote chargers we're displayed, including the contactless charge T-Charge stand, and the Quatro-4 standing charge base supporting up to four remotes.

On the Hercules side, their line of netbooks were on display, the eCafe family. Not only are these netbooks stylish and compact, customized for more of the personal use, but each also comes with the very useful eCafe suite. This application features a web camera, date and calender, and an e-mail utility that allows users to track and read e-mails from up to four separate accounts.

More on the sound aspect, Hercules was showcasing entry-level and beginner friendly DJ tables that connect to the PC and though there is a display on the PC, everything can be navigated through the mixer.

9:00 AM - Day 2 of CES has oficially started. Up on the chopping block this morning is Tritton and Coolit. I hope to also finish up with exploring all of the north hall today. And I will arrive right at 1130 for lunch, no banana and cookies for me today.

12:00 PM - I'm happy to say I'm writing this while eating lunch today, I am on time today. Tritton has some excellent technology coming out in the usb to video category this year as well as an excellent line up of headsets. Coolit has shown me some really creative cooling technology, more on that later.

10:00 PM - Back at the hotel after a very full day. Alex and I made a stop today over at AEN, took some pictures, and got a few autographs. After that, I was off to Maingear to check out the Shift first hand. Its sleek design is sharp, and clean in addition to the extreme performance that it offers. The verticle layout offers dis...tinct advantages in cooling management and ease of access to the I/O panel on the motherboard.

Wednesday, January 6th - Day 0 - Press Day of CES 2010

7:00 AM - CES 2010 begins today. After a long day of travel yesterday, I met up with Alex, Wes, and Adam at Circus Circus. Settling in included seeing the Las Vegas Sign, walking the strip, riding The Deuce, and some valuable gaming research at GameWorks. Beginning with Netgear, we have a full day of press events ahead of us. Expect updates as the day progresses on.

12:00 PM - Netgear and Toshiba down. We're off to eat some brunch, and then Samsung's conference in the afternoon. So far, there's been mostly talk of streaming full HD signal over the home network, making SD content to look near HD, full network connectivity across the web, social networking, and the future of televison. Bringing the 3D experience into the home, packed with tons of extra features the CELL TV hopes to become the ultimate TV solution

3:00 PM - A familiar tune of bringing the 3D experience into the home is ringing in my ears while exiting the Samsung conference. Partnering up with Dreamworks and Technicolor, Samsung hopes to dominate the market in 2010 with 3D movies over a standardized Blu-Ray 3D format. Samsung also announced today the launch of Samsung Apps. While there were not many specifics cited, they're focusing on an open market with the use of a free software developement kit with support for multiple devices including for the first time, televisions. That's right, an application store for your TV will be available by Spring. The first slew of free apps will be available in the Spring, and more premium apps are to follow in the Summer of 2010.

Interim - So far the day has been full of some interesting news, although nothing of much surprise. Considering how successful 3D movies have been throughout 2009 it was only a matter of time before the consumer would be expecting the same immersive experience at home. We're back for the night, busily posting up the days news releases and pictures, and Patriot's Party is in the evening. Stay tuned to LANOC for some more in depth coverage, and tommorrow will bring another day of news.

Night Cap - Patriot's party was informative, stylish, and exciting. The most exciting product of 2010 for Patriot is the BoxOffice. It features one 2.5" bay, 3 USB ports, and supports a wide variety of codecs. Most importantly, it operates as a NAS device shipping with a wireless g adapter allowing seemless streaming over the home network with a large variety of media. It will be able to read Blu-Ray ISOs, and support Dolby Digital, and DTS.

A neat little device from Patriot will also be the Gearbox. It's a very small NAS device that connects directly up to a RJ45, capable of print server support, with 2 USB ports, and operates at 10/100 speed. Retailing at around 49.99 it provides a cheap and quick way to bring NAS service to any user's home network.

Although no information is solid as to when or how much, but the newest format in SD memory will be SDXC with support up to 2TB of data.

Kicking off CES bright and early, I spoke with a representative from iSkin. For 2010 iSkin is introducing a line of bags each created by a feature artist. They're also offering very limited sets from a feature artist for a completely custom, one of a kind look. TTK is featured here as an urban shoe artist with the matching bag that he created from one of their plain styles.

They're also showcasing the brand new iSkin EarTones. The unique, ergonomic design of these earphones feature a flexible head, stylish design, and a microfiber insert so they can be easily cleaned.

 

Additionally iSkin is featuring magnetic car mounts this year. A simple magnetic system allows the user to attach their iPod or iPhone to a car window mount quickly and securely. They will be available in a number of colors as well.

More information and ordering can be found at their website www.iskin.com

One of the largest booths in the South Hall 4 of the Las Vegas Convention Center is the NVidia booth, which is impossible to miss regardless of the monumental name the company has made for itself. Lines of TVs and game controllers littered the circular area, with coulmns shooting up all over, each showcasing NVidia's most popular products, and even some new technology as well.

One of the more substantial displays was the 3-D acceleration hardware set-up, consisting of three displays: multiple screen display, Blu-Ray playback, and a demonstration of the new physics processor. Starting with the most former, NVidia had three 20" 3-D monitors with Batman: Arkham Asylum spreading across all of them for extreme widescreen. These screens were from Panasonic, each featuring true 120 Hertz, each eye receiving 60Mhz/sec that alternate. The middle screen was very simliar, though only showcasing one TV. Both required the peripheral glasses of course, each lens of which is an actual mini-screen. More than 40 game companies already support this 3-D hardware, with many more in the works.

The coolest demonstration, however, was that of the last 3-D monitor showcasing NVidia's developing 'game' that shows off the physics of their new GPU, the GF100, which is set to release in the first quarter of 2010. This next generation GPU was running a DX11 demo with an environment build entirely of objects to show-off the physics engine. The surrounding environment feature objects such as a shed or water tower, and a technician on a rocket-powered rail car, built of objects as well. The idea was to speed the cart up to over 400MPH down the rails, and attempt to stop it before it flew off the unfinished track at the end. built objects, such as a wooden bridge, can actually be demolished from the physics of the high-speed cart racing over it. It is not a scripted event; whether it occurs or not is based purely on the in-game circumstance. This program is supposed to ship when the GPU is released in quarter one.

Wednesday January 6th - With more of a fuller night behind us, our bodies seem to have realized how much hell weve already put them through.

We'll be hitting quite a few, so stay in tune for coverage!
