CES

Been watching TWiT TV's coverage of the event all week. Nice to see it all just as though I was there, without walking a step!

Among the items shown, I like the Asus 7" tablet with the Nvidia Tegra 3 quad core processor dubbed the Prime mini. Just like it's big brother (Transformer Prime), this little spitfire runs the latest Android OS, Ice Cream Sandwich. At $249, this one will be a hit.

Also this year seems to be the year for the Windows Phone to finally take off with the announcement of the Nokia Lumia 900 coming to the US. This device features a 1.4 GHz processor and a 4.3-inch AMOLED ClearBlack display. No price was announced.

And finally, the biggest buzzword this year seems to be OLED. These Organic LED displays were present in 55" super thin forms from Samsung and LG. Cost will make these systems only for the rich at first, but as with everything else, eventually it will come down to a more reasonable amount.
