Hasta La Gadget!

While we initially assumed that ASUS’ Lamborghini VX5 would be its sexiest laptop at CeBIT, now we’re having second thoughts. After taking the wraps off of its downright stunning 10-inch Eee PC 1008HA yesterday, we spotted the bugger sittin’ pretty today at the outfit’s booth. Needless to say, we couldn’t pass up the opportunity to snag a few snapshots and share ’em all with you. Much like the S101, the so-called “Shell” has very little “Eee” in its blood. In fact, you’d barely know it was part of the family without that descriptive placard sitting there beside it. ASUS engineered this one for fashionistas who’d like a little PC with their next style accessory, and everything from the glorious paint job to the ultra-clean lines screamed “gorgeous.” Really, take a look below and see for yourself.

We’re not sure if Clevo has had to deal with trade show thievery in the past, but its Core i7-equipped D900F was locked down tight at CeBIT. Nevertheless, we stopped by — camera in hand — to have a look, and what we saw was something we’d never, ever want on our laps for more than 120 seconds. We also saw a ridiculously potent LAN party rig, so we suppose there’s some truth to that “eye of the beholder” thing our parents keep mentioning. All the big pics are just below, but you already knew that, didn’t you?

Apparently FujiFilm‘s truckload of new cameras got redirected from Las Vegas to Hannover, but whatever the case, we’ll take whatever hands-on we can get. Over in a small corner at CeBIT, FujiFilm was on hand with its recently-shipping F200EXR and the bulk of its pre-PMA crew. We didn’t notice anything particularly special about any of ’em (cosmetically, we mean), though we must say, the lime green on the Z33WP really began to grow on us. See if it rubs you the same way in the gallery below.

ASUS has taken the wraps off its latest Eee PC, the 1008HA we heard was on the way to follow up on the S101. As far as anyone can tell — ASUS is a little coy on specs so far — the laptop harbors fairly traditional netbook specs and a netbook pricepoint, but the exterior is all new and rather attractive. The computer is 1-inch thick and weighs 2.4 pounds, with a curved, shiny plastic “shell” (ASUS calls it “pearlescent”) to give a bit more luster than the average Eee PC. ASUS is including 802.11n, Bluetooth, 3G and WiMAX options, and packing in it Eee Sharing and Eee Arena software. We’ll be looking to dig up more specs and some hands-on time with this unit this week at CeBIT.

While we’ve seen the latest and greatest ClarionMiND reviewed since it got stuffed with Intel’s Atom and optional WWAN, we’ve yet to actually catch one in person… until today, that is. Over at Clarion’s spacious CeBIT booth, we took the liberty of snapping a few shots of this here MID. After toying with it for a few minutes, we were less than impressed by the finicky screen response, and the noticeable lag between application changes got annoying pretty quickly. Still, the main home screen looked mighty slick, so we suppose there’s nothing horribly wrong that a minor firmware update can’t fix. Anywho, dive on into the gallery below should you find yourself intrigued.
