Tiffen Steadicam Smoothie for your Apple iPhone CES 2010

Posted by geeknews at 6:45 PM on January 31, 2010

Tiffen Steadicam Smoothie does not yet have a release date, but everyone that saw it wanted one. Designed to be a steadicam for your iPhone or Flip camera this steadicam will sell by the thousands if they can get it to market at a price point that does not scare everyone away. They would not commit to any date or price which makes us wonder if they are having a hard time getting it to a price point that makes sense.

As you can see in the picture it looks pretty cool doesnt it. Makes you wish you could buy one today. We will keep you advised on when this comes to market and will get our hands on one as soon as possible.

Parrot Zikmu by Starck Wireless Speakers CES 2010

Posted by geeknews at 4:35 PM on January 31, 2010

The Parrot booth was slammed at CES and we had a very difficult time getting anyone to talk to us. So I winged the product review with almost no information. The Parrot Zikmu by Philippe Starck were some beautiful looking and sounding speakers. Amazingly wireless post show I found out that they can be driven either by bluetooth or Wi-Fi. They have 100 watts of output power and are completely compatible with your iPhone or iPod. They are no cheap they retail for $1599 but they are quite stunning and would be very nice for most homes decor.

By the reaction they were getting at the booth, I am sure you are going to see these via a number of sales channels.

Yeti by Blue Microphone THX Certified CES 2010

Posted by geeknews at 12:46 PM on January 31, 2010

The Yeti USB Microphone by Blue Microphone is a versatile multi-pattern microphone. The first ever to be THX certified for exceptional sound and performance. Testing the Yeti I was blown away by it’s depth of sound. I was really not expecting it to be that good. Designed to sit on a desktop with built in feedback amplifier this microphone should be at the top of the list.

You can have a choice of three patterns, including cardioid, omnidirectional, and bidirectional. This reduces the need for multiple microphones when recording in group sessions. I have added the microphone to my tool box of microphones. Priced at $149.00 you get a lot of Microphone for the price!

CyberLink’s 3D Blu-ray PowerDVD CES 2010

Posted by geeknews at 10:46 AM on January 31, 2010

CyberLink PowerDVD Ultra with 3D Blu-ray capability is expected in mid 2010. What this means to consumers is that you will be able to watch 3D movies on your laptops.

Personally I question how good that experience will be, only time will tell.
If you are in the market for a new PC, you may want to ask about the capability, especially in high end systems.
