They have a few of the ex tech tv geeks on that are fun to watch as they show new stuff. It is free direct streaming viewing or you can download the 30+ minute shows in different formats to view at your leisure later. And yep even the couple of advertisements are fun to see.

For example episode 127 covers :

CES = The Consumer Electronics Show, the annual gathering of the CE industry... and quite the parade of new products. It's huge: 1.7 million square feet of floor space covered with 2,700 exhibitors, and thousands of new product announcements, from 2000 Watt PC Power supplies to 108 inch HDTVs. We'll be bringing you a serious taste of what's going on this week.
• UWB, Ultra Wide Band hits the street. First up, Toshiba's Portege R400. We're talking about a wireless port replicator... connected everything to your notebook but power without wires.
• A slick Vista interface customized for the family, a giant touch screen and a clean design = HP's TouchSmart PC.
• Next generation phones? Louderback brings us the Linksys iPhone, Netgear's Dual-Mode Cordless Phone with Skype on the WiFi/VoIP front, and D-Link's V-Click, which offers up GSM cell phone connectivy and SIP VoIP support for a WiFi connection.
• You can only buy it in Japan? Maybe not. Dynamism's CEO Douglas Krone brings some of the slickest products you never thought you'd see for sale in the US... Thanko's video wrist watch, Panasonic's HDC-SD1 (90 minutes of HD video on a 4GB SD card!), notebooks from Sony, Panasonic and Kohjinsha... and... yes, the new Nabaztag/tag (The next gen TechnoLustBunny can smell!)
• More products? Sure. How about Nokia's new Internet Tablet, the N800, Dash Navigation's Dash Express (in car GPS meets some serious wireless networking savvy)
• Ruggedized video camera? Sean, you're probably going to have to go with a case for that camera... and the best defense vivisection by your precocious 4 year old? We've got the only way prevent that.....


NEWS
• It's true: Microsoft is adding an HDMI port, 120GB HD and what looks like a pretty slick interface for IPTV to the Xbox 360. Sorry if you just picked up one, Jake, we don't have the ship date or price yet, but this looks like a sweet upgrade.

And episode 128 covers :

•

Blu-ray and HD DVD in one box? It's LG Electronics BH100... in stores February.
• Cell phones! Sascha Segan gives us the scoop on new phones from Samsung and Palm. (Motorola's got a new phone too... and yes, we just saw Apple's iPhone this morning!)
• Notebooks? HP's stylish TX1000 is a home entertainment table (w/ a pop out remote control!). Alienware dropped by two serious gaming notebooks... Robert couldn't stop petting the Area-51 m9750.
• GPS? We've got handhelds with onboard topo maps: Magellan's CrossoverGPS and DeLorme's Earthmate GPS PN-20, Garmin's new StreetPilot and Nuvi, and my personal favorite: the Astro GPS Dog Tracking System.
• iPod accessories? Try projectors, wirless speaker systems, Shure's latest hifi earplugs, two iPod centric alarm clocks, and ... pool floaties?
• One last product: a fold up UMPC with a bit of style!

NEWS
• Microsoft Home Server
• Sony's 2nd gen Blu-ray players? When was the first gen player???
• Intel goes V8
• 108 inches... that's a big HDTV

I am finding that this complements G4TV's current coverage of the CES quite well.

Also there are several other episodes available to view on the same site.

ENJOY!!

That 100 inch or now they say 108 inch LCD was a farce according to G4TV. All it was was two lcds seamed together. It is not a real product. They did it just to get people to come into their booth.
Gawd now we got people doing fake HDTV Large Screen mods
