CES 2006 - Day 2: Blu-ray/HD-DVD, PureVideo H.264, Viiv, Centrino Duo and a lot more

Centrino Duo at CES
It is almost always the case that whenever Intel launches a new Centrino platform, the majority of their OEM partners toss the new CPU in their largest machines. Case in point would be Dell with their Inspiron E1705, the only Centrino Duo notebook they had at launch and it is equipped with a 17" display. Tradition disappointingly continues on with the majority of the other Centrino Duo notebooks on display at the show.

Is that Serenity that I'm seeing on the Toshiba laptop playing back in high definition? If so, WHERE CAN I BUY IT?!!! and How much?Troll4Hire - Monday, January 9, 2006 - link
Is it just me, or am I the only one who saw the Motorola Bluetooth headset and laughed because it looks like a penis and testicles?http://images.anandtech.com/reviews/tradeshows/200...">Photo #1 http://images.anandtech.com/reviews/tradeshows/200...">Photo #2

The Vaio on "The Four Viiv PCs Worth Mentioning" looks a lot like a cash register with the keyboard on top.Doh! - Sunday, January 8, 2006 - link

For more info on the rollable display shown by Philips look at http://www.polymervision.com">www.polymervision.com. You can find some nice pictures and a video at the website (Technology -> download).HamburgerBoy - Saturday, January 7, 2006 - link
That rollable display is pretty neat, but how does it work? For something that thin, would you have to use some really small batteries or what?AndrewChang - Saturday, January 7, 2006 - link
For those of us unable to attend a show like CES, I appreciate the quality and focus of your coverage. It's a nice reminder that you guys are still as dedicated as ever to Anandtech, as the quality of some recent articles had left me wondering. Thanks.DanaGoyette - Saturday, January 7, 2006 - link
My god, you could heat a house with that quad SLI system! What I want to know is how they plan to cool the inner heatsinks on those cards. This would be a really good use for a modded version of the Zalman TNN case.Of course, they should ditch the dual Prescott (if that's what it is) and go with a custom Yonah board.
They'd be better off with a much longer heatsink with the fan perhaps sticking out the end, or something like that.
Quantum3D Mercury, anyone?

It is interesting that the Quad SLI actually is stated to have over 40Gpixels/s output which is about 4 times the power shown in the graph there:http://news.com.com/1606-2_3-6020675.html">http://news.com.com/1606-2_3-6020675.html
