Sony CES 2010 3D LED TV

CES 2010
De CES van 2010 is vannacht begonnen en Sony was als eerste aan de beurt met een anderhalf uur durende persconferentie. Aangezien er toch weer een Nachtwacht gemaakt moest worden heb ik maar ff gekeken in de hoop vette nieuwe games of ontwikkelingen te zien. Dat viel helaas een beetje tegen, want na dik een uur bullshit te hebben gehoord over verkoopcijfers, camera’s, SD kaartjes, laptops en dat soort ongein is er eigenlijk maar één ding geweest tijdens de hele presentatie wat boeiend voor ons gamers is.

Sony gaat zich namelijk volledig op het 3D gebeuren storten. Deze zomer komen de eerste volledig ondersteunende 3D Bravia TV’s uit en in 2011 komen er helemaal zieke 3D TV’s in de winkel te staan. Sony heeft dan ook een vette deals gemaakt met IMAX en gaat zelfs hele 3D uitzendingen verzorgen in samenwerking met Discovery, ESPN, HBO en CSBC. Ik voorspelde al dat 3D ‘the next best thing’ zou worden en het lijkt er op dat ik gelijk had.

Wat dat betekent voor de PlayStation 3 is volledige ondersteuning van 3D in games en Blu-ray films. De firmware update komt van de zomer en daarmee is je PS3 klaar voor 3D gaming. Voor alle info over de keynote kan je hier een live blog lezen.

LG CES 2010: Broadband & Wireless Connectivity on your TV
Friday, February 26th, 2010 | Author:

Nearly all the LG HDTVs shown at CES offer a connectivity package with a variety of entertainment options, including NetCast Entertainment Access™. With NetCast, consumers can access the following content sites for an nearly endless array of entertainment options:

• Skype™: Newly added in 2010, this allows consumers to make free video and voice calls over the Internet to family members and friends (separate camera and other equipment needed).
• YouTube™: Offers the ability to instantly stream millions of Web videos directly from the Internet (without a personal computer).
• Yahoo! Widgets™: Enables access to various applications called TV Widgets that allow viewers to interact with well loved Internet services and online media through applications specifically tailored to the needs of the watcher, such as up-to-the minute Yahoo! News, Weather and Finance, and new widgets, including CBS, Showtime and CNBC.

LG also has incorporated the Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) technology across the full line of LED models. DLNA allows consumers to access content stored on other DLNA-certified devices within the home, such as computers, making content options nearly limitless.

Providing simple options for connecting to the Internet, in addition to the wired Ethernet jack, all NetCast-enabled sets can integrate into a wireless home network by using a USB wireless broadband adaptor (sold separately). All models with NetCast also support multi-media playback from a connected USB device including photos (JPEG), music (MP3) and video (DivX HD).

For greater convenience and flexibility in setup and installation, all HDTV series with NetCast also offer wireless Full HD 1080p wireless transmission from a Wireless Media Hub from up to 98 feet. Connecting source components, such as Blu-ray players, cable or satellite boxes and video games to the media hub enables transmission to a compact receiver adaptor, which attaches to the back of the TV, hidden from view. This eliminates the need for individual components to be connected directly to the TV, making for a clean and simple installation and removal of the unsightly wires (Media Hub and receiver adaptor sold separately as a package).

COMCAST CEO Brian Roberts will deliver this morning’s CES keynote and reveal a plot to increase on-demand titles from 1,300 to 6,000. Roberts will also discuss the company’s plans for Fancast.com, a guide to video that helps users find content online and offline. Fancast will let users search for any content in any format. A search on the site will return listings for TV, DVD, iTunes, Netflix, Amazon or web video sites like Hulu. The site will also integrate with Comcast and TiVo DVRs, letting users schedule recordings through the site.

CISCO has designed an “entertainment operating system” that will help companies build online communities of viewers that watch specific TV shows or match other criteria. The “Eos” will monitor user interaction in the community and deliver both web-based content recommendations for users as well as targeted advertising. Eos will be tested on sites for the NHL and Nascar.

ECHOSTAR has announced a $39.99 digital-to-analog converter box, which will be fully covered by the NTIA’s $40 converter coupons. Users will only have to pay sales tax on the boxes. EchoStar is also working on higher-end converters that include DVR functionality but are not covered by the coupon program. In related news, the NTIA has certified 250 retailers and 19 different digital-to-analog converters for the program. Retailers include Best Buy and Wal-Mart.

PANASONIC unveiled a new 150 inch Plasma TV, proclaiming it the world’s largest high-def show. The TV offers 2160×4096 resolution, totaling nearly 9 million pixels. Panasonic also unveiled an initiative with Google that will bring YouTube and the Picasa photo-sharing site to its new Viera HDTV’s.

PARAMOUNT will reportedly follow Warner Bros. in dropping support for HD DVD. The Financial Times is reporting the exclusive tale and proclaiming this the latest “final blow” to HD DVD.

SONY BMG announced the details of its new DRM-free offering, which requires users to go to retail stores, buy cards and then visit a website to download the unprotected music. Downloads will come from Platinum MusicPass, a new site starting January 15th. Music download cards will be available at 4,500 retail outlets for $12.99. Sony BMG said the service is “a fantastic way to bring digital music to the physical retail space.” Retailers may like the thought. Consumers will not.

BITTORRENT announced that both Netgear and D-Link have joined its Device Partners program. The companies will license BitTorrent technology for devices that enable file sharing at home and across the web. As part of the program, BitTorrent has certified the D-Link Xtreme N DIR-655 router and installed its SDK on the DNS-323 storage unit. Netgear will use BitTorrent technology to power the Digital Entertainer HD, a device that brings Internet content (including hi-def streams) to HDTVs.

LG CES 2010 Mobile DTV
Wednesday, February 24th, 2010 | Author:

Meet LG Electronics’ portable, battery-operated mobile DTV, designed to receive over-the-air signals being transmitted by local broadcasters. With demand for truly mobile, portable TV reception on the rise, LG is introducing the DP570MH Mobile Digital Television with DVD Playback at the 2010 Consumer Electronics Show.

Ideal for reception of Mobile DTV any time, virtually anywhere, and at any speed, the DP570MH Mobile Digital Television offers the flexibility of both over-the-air reception and the convenience of built-in DVD playback. Equipped with stereo speakers and a 7-inch wide screen to show crystal clear digital TV images (at Wide QVGA resolution of 480×234), the LG Mobile Digital TV is designed so that its show screen can be tilted to the viewers preferred viewing angle. When not in use, the clamshell-style screen folds down and the device shrinks to about 9.5-inches by 6.5 inches or about the size of a small hardback book.

The DP570MH comes equipped to play DVD movie discs and audio CDs, and it can also show .JPG photos and play WMA music files from its USB2.0 connection. The Mobile Digital Television comes equipped with two earphone jacks so that more than one passenger can delight in Mobile DTV shows or movies in the back seat of the car, or on a train. Equipped with a removable battery that powers the device for up to 2.5 hours in TV mode or up to 4.5 hours during DVD playback, the device includes both AC and Auto power adaptors.
