Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Home Entertainment, Misc. Tech, Movies, Peripherals,
Coby has come up with a “two-fer.” Use the TF-DVD 1591 flatscreen as a monitor with its 1024 x 768 resolution and 15-inch TFT LCD or utilize it as a TV with its built-in tuner. Even more creative is its slot-loading DVD player neatly packaged on the side. The digital device has a 500:1 contrast ratio, built-in speakers, a size of 15.18 x 15.37 x 2.16-inches, and is wall mountable. It comes with a full function remote and AV cable and has a MSRP of $293.00.

Bleeding Edge TV 147: iRiver Unit2
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Gizmatic, Short Bytes, CES, CES 2007, Features, Home Entertainment, Movies, Portable Audio / Video, Videocasts, Wireless / WiFi,
We stopped to chat with Rome Eselin of iRiver to talk about the new Unit2 that they are working on. While not available yet, the device looks to be a winner. It’s a PMP sporting a 30GB hard drive, 7-inch LCD display, with integrated WiFi. It has a docking station that has multiple inputs and outputs as well as an integrated DVD player, so you can both display the Unit2 content on a TV, but also send signals from your cable box or DVD player to the Unit2 wirelessly over 802.11n. They are even trying to incorporate point of interest into the device, so by way of the internet connection, you can find local restaurants. Even Internet radio is being considered. This device could be hot when released in the fourth quarter of 2007 - no pricing details have been released.
