Best of CES 2010 - 7 January


So as I said in my previous post today I will tell you my favourite product that appeared at CES this year on the first day of CES. So my favourite product is the PopBox. The PopBox is a new media streamer from Syabas, the sama company that made the Popcorn Hour C-200. ThePopBox is great for streaming internet media content in HD quality such as: Movies, Music, Photos, from the internet and it even has 2 USB ports for connecting Hard Drives and it supports a great amount of formats. It's kind of a VLC media player plus more. It also has a lot of connections like of course HDMI, USB, component video and audio, optical, SD slot, ethernet and the box will come soon with Wireless N conenction. The interface is very easy to use, the price is lower that I expected from a product like this it is only 125 US dollars and the wireless version will cost 145 US dollars (I will choose the wireless version if I will buy it).


The product is simple yet beautiful it is like a normal box with straight edges like most other media streamers, you can even put the HDDs on top of the box and it is not like the crooked Boxee, which will ocupy it's space and you will not be able to put something on it to minimize the space occupied.


So in the end, the PopBox is a great product and I am sure it will have a huge success.




Now for the products that i didn't like: Still no 3D TV that doesn't require glasses, tablet netbooks of some sort who are slugish even with 4 GB of ram, expensive e-readers with no 3G, pocketable camcorders who are still doing what they suppose to tho and nothing more or better.




So stay tuned for the next blog post to find out my favourite product of January 8.




P.S.: I wrote this post so late so that I will browse through all the products announced on 7 of January and because of the time difference. So my next post will be on January 9 for the products announced in January 8 and so on.
