HD radio had a good display of product. HD radio is digital, and is less prone to interference than standard FM radio. A variety of home and car receivers are available. Best of all, it’s free, no subscription fees.

XM and Sirius satellite radio had similar displays to last year. The hardware is smaller and has a color display, but XM dropped all of their live music acts this year. With Sirius gaining more subscribers than XM last year, could it be the costs involved with bringing name brand acts to CES? Could a merger between the two formats be in the not so distant future?

Hitachi and many others showed HD DVD cameras at the show. Now you can record 1080i right onto a mini DVD on a camcorder that is tiny. I liked the exploded view that Hitachi had on display..


More Ipod stuff. This Ipod speaker with 4 simulated tubes on the base is cute, but serves no purpose. I guess it’s for the tube fanatic that is forced kicking and screaming into the MP3 age.


…and for the person that absolutely MUST take their IPod into the swimming pool…

DBox is a manufacturer of motion transducers for home theater. They combine audio with hydraulics to actually move your chair with software programmed for the movie that you’re watching. This year they introduced gaming chairs based on the same principles.
