(Credit: Samsung)After finally seeing 3D stereoscopic games in action, I now know what all the excitement is about. Playing a game with the “3D” feature turned on delivers on the promise set up by movies like The Creature From the Black Lagoon 3D. Movies that still to this day …

As much as we love plasmas’ image quality here at CNET, there’s no denying that they’re power hogs . However, at CES 2009 we’ve seen several plasma manufacturers showing off new energy-efficient panels. Like Panasonic’s NeoPDP plasmas, the Samsung PN-B550 series of plasmas claim to consume nearly …

You thought we’d make it through all of CES without a prank? You underestimated us. And this one might be worse than last year. Don’t watch this if you have a delicate constitution.
You’re welcome, internet. That was for all of you.

While we got some early time with Dell’s super-secret Adamo prototype, it looks like we weren’t the only ones — and it also looks like we didn’t get the whole enchilada: there’s a wicked-sexy white version hiding in the Palms as well. Still no more details than before, but bub.blicio.us was also allowed to boot the aluminum ultraportable, so at least we know that there’s chips in that box. We’re actually headed back to check out the Mini 10, so we’ll dig for even more (and try to get pictures in a better-lit room), but for now check these latest Adamo pictures in the gallery.

There’s plenty of automotive tech on display at CES this year (amps and kickers for miles, dawg) and, while Microsoft is talking up its enhanced Sync for 2010 autos, Ford President and CEO Alan Mulally took an opportunity to direct our gaze a bit further down the road with an interesting demo of what he imagines the rear-view mirror of the future will look like. Ford calls it Emotic Voice Activation, or EVA, basically an integrated AI that can read you your e-mail, check the news, and even, apparently, detect what kind of tunes you’re in the mood for. At this point we don’t know anything about when or even if this sort of thing will be available in the real world, but, based on the video, we expect EVA to become standard equipment roughly when steering wheels lose their spokes and people actually start pulling over to check their e-mail. Soothing video below.

LAS VEGAS — USB hard drives are getting fatter with Toshiba announcing at CES 2009 its 500GB external drive. And that kind of storage means consumers will want to access from anywhere the music, photos and other data from those drives.
The newly launched Pogoplug has created a small box that connects external hard drives to the Internet making all the data on it instantly
shareable and accessible.
Users simply plug turn the Pogoplug on, connect the Ethernet cable that comes with it to their home
network router and attach it to an external hard drive. That’s enough to bring the Pogoplug alive and the data on the external drive online. Users at home don’t have to go through the Pogoplug to access their data.
Pogoplug has an open API so there’s already and iPhone app that interfaces with Pogoplug available.
The best part? It’s priced right at $100, with an introductory pricing at $80.
