Vivitek H6080FD LED DLP Projector

There can be only one…okay, maybe two.

Is Vivitek’s H6080FD the industry’s first 1080p LED projector? Or is it Delta Electronics’ HT-8000? Both claim the title. Both are on display at the show. Neither has yet to hit the market. Who will win The Prize?

Domo Arigato, Gibson

After walking the floor of the Las Vegas Convention Center all day yesterday, checking out the speaker demos and gabbing about home entertainment technology, I decided to treat myself to a visit to Gibson’s tent outside the Convention Center to get my first peek at the company’s new Dark Fire Robot Guitar. And I really wish I hadn’t, because now I want one.

JVC's 2009 Press Conference at CES previewed a number of interesting new HDTV designs, including a super-thin LCD prototype that measures a super-skinny 7mm (.28 inch) cabinet depth. While no price or availability was announced, the prototype looked great on perched on a sculptured two-leg chromed pedestal.

Highlights of The Best of the Rest

While most of the hubbub was about the audio and video at the show, there were still a few products that don't fit into those two big categories that caught our eye as well. 

From the futuristic to a new guitar hero (no, not that kind), we saw a bunch.

All the links... well, you know.
