Just how many new products does a company like Sony announce just at CES? Over 70. That’s 18 different models in camcorders alone, but if you enjoy punishing your brain, read on for the deluge.
Just days after we heard about AMD’s oddly-positioned processor for ultrathin laptops, the Neo, Intel is reported to be working on something almost identical. Are these bridge laptops the secret next big thing?

The curiously well-informed Russian gentleman who spread the Pre=$US399 rumour wants to clarify! He meant to say that it’ll be $US399 or $US499, and $US149 or $US199 on contract. That’s a pretty big clarification, guy.
