We’re all so use to having our smartphones close at hand that we can occasionally tune out and miss a call or notification that’s right in front of our faces. So what’s the solution? Obviously an iPhone 5 case with a blinding 8×16 LED grid on the back that mirrors and emphasizes on-screen notifications. More »
[CES 2013] Bem has just announced their Speaker Trio – although I would like to venture and take a guess that this naming convention was inspired by Thor’s the Warriors Three. Well, just what kind of audio firepower can we expect to find from the Speaker Trio? For starters, we are looking at three speakers (obviously, hence the name) that are touted to deliver exceptional, crystal clear sound to multiple rooms without the hassle of wires.
Ah, wires, even in the year 2013, we still cannot escape the fact that it is nigh impossible to live a true, blue, wireless lifestyle. Not until someone comes up with a method to send electricity surging throughout the home or office wirelessly, knowing just which device to target and how much juice it needs. Well, the Speaker Trio will boast a range of up to 120 feet, and it can be controlled by an iPhone, smartphone or other Bluetooth device. Choose from black or white shades at $299.99 a pop.

[CES 2013] Butter-fingered iPhone 5 owners have quite the decision to make when it comes to their iPhone cover: go with a bulky, unattractive case to protect it from millions of drops or play russian roulette with your iPhone by putting a nice case on it that offers zero protection. Now with Ballistic’s newly announced Aspira series cases for the iPhone 5, you can finally have a nice looking case that offers protection from your slippery fingers.
Ballistic’s collection of ultra-thin protective cases offers maximum protection while creating minimal bulk for your iPhone 5. The cases combine a soft rubber interior and corner bumpers along with a hard plastic exterior that sports a high polish finish and comes in a number of patterns and colors.
If you’ve been looking for a case that not only protects your iPhone 5 but also looks good, Ballistic’s Aspira series cases will be available this month for $35 each. Additional models in the Aspira series cases will be made available this spring.

It’s hard to believe a whole year has passed since the last time Intel held a keynote at CES. Back then, we got a glimpse of an early Medfield phone and also saw a demo of Fruit Ninja running on a touchscreen Ultrabook. (Remember when that seemed like a novelty?) Twelve months later, we still haven’t seen that many Atom-powered handsets, but touch-enabled laptops are already the new normal. So what’s in store for 2013? Personally, we’re hoping for longer battery life on touchscreen Ultrabooks, and that might be a real possibility if Intel comes out with those low-power Y-series chips we’ve been reading about. We’d also be shocked if Intel didn’t give us an update on Medfield, or show us some splashy laptop demonstration. Who knows? Maybe this is the year NFC in notebooks finally catches on. Or maybe, if rumors are to be believed, we’ll hear more about a “virtual cable TV service.” (Ed. note: don’t hold your breath.) In any case, there’s only one way to find out: stay tuned as we give you up-to-the minute coverage.
