Surprised no thread in here yet.

Where's the best place to follow it?

And post things you've found interesting etc..


One thing that's all ready been announced I like is
Alcatel Onetouch Pixi 3 an 8" windows phablet.

Probably useless to most people. But an interesting concept. Do a lot of hiking, phones only for emergency but do like having a tablet for when I'm in civilisation and chilling out in a hostel. Seems this could replace both devices and as it's technically a phone if ever needed to use mobile data, it wouldn't be classed as tethering.

Good find wonder what titbit will announce. I think I'm right in saying they haven't done a stage release before, so possibly something big.

Is the S7 coming at CES or is it a separate event.

A separate "Samsung Unpacked" event which is rumoured to be coming in February.

slightly off topic.. but peelable TV's and HDR TVs..

I thought that HDR would be something on the production side rather than a broadcasting thing.

This explains HDR TV:

http://www.cnet.com/uk/news/what-is-hdr-for-tvs-and-why-should-you-care/

So now we will begin to see HDR tvs and the HDR Alliance has been launched to set the standards for devices, distribution and content. Products adhering to these standards will carry the "Ultra HD Premium" logo. It is a very positive step forward.

The time to buy a 4K tv is now fast approaching.

New Razer core and stealth looks like a cool concept

The parrot disco drone sounds interesting if you're into your aerial photography, or just fancy having a blast with an RC plane.

LG announced an 8k TV

Muhh, looks rubbish. Can't see a kickstand, also it's only $70 cheaper than the Lenovo miix 700, which is running a skylake m core compared to the Toshibas atom

That looks really nice. Not sure I'd take one over a Surface Pro 4 though.
