posted by Marc Wallis on January 09, 2008
Yesterday, Annie wrote about the nominees for CNET Best of Show awards. I just left the CNET South Hall 2nd floor studio where they presented the winners for Best of CES 2008. Though there were some truly deserving winners, nothing really rocked me enough to run out and purchase it (though there was one surprise winner and one I’ll certainly look more into).
I won’t list out the details as you can get that from the CNET Best of Show website. But here’s the list, and a couple of my comments:
- GPS
- Azentek Atlas CPC-1200
- Cellphones and Smartphones
- Motorola Rokr E8
- Computers and Hardware
- Lenovo Ideapad U110
- Digital Photo and Video
- Sony Alpha DSLR-A200
- Emerging Technology
- Bug Labs Platform
- Gaming
- Nyko Wireless Nunchuck for Wii - What?? This thing beat out the hot Gateway Fx720 and the amazing
Alienware Curve. I guess I’m not much of a Wii-fanatic to really appreciate this win. - Home Audio
- Logitech Squeezebox Duet – hmmm.. this one deserves a deeper look by me.
- Home Video
- Echostar TR-50 – Brilliant!! I can’t believe someone hasn’t thought of an HD DVR for over-the-air broadcast digital TV (
ATSC ) before. This is great, and I might actually run out buy one! - MP3 and Portable Video players
- iRiver W7
- Televisions
- Philips 42PFL5603D Eco TV
- People’s Voice
- Motorola Rokr E8
- Best of Show Overall
- Philips 42PFL5603D Eco TV
