If you've been waiting for your chance to buy a hot, hot Tesla electric car (such as their Roadster or Whitestar), good news. The electric car company is planning on opening 5 dealerships around the country this fall.
If you live in NYC, Chicago, Florida, Northern California or Southern California, you're in luck. They hope to open more dealerships soon after, as they're able to pump out more product. Is this the start of the age of the mainstream electric car? We sure hope so. –Adam Frucci

Technovision is showing off their 205-inch LCD LED HDTV at CeBit, that makes the formerly buff Sharp 108-inch LCD feel downright pathetic. That's enough space to park two mini coopers on, side by side. Wait...TechnovisionWho?
[UPDATED: Aha! It's an array of LEDs, not an LCD]
The Italian company, in operation since 1987, specializes in displays for outdoor areas. Ohhh. So this is like a jumbotron. Except for inside, and HD. I refuse to believe that these are single pieces of glass. Likely they're comprised of a few panels joined together like some of the "big" TVs we saw at CES.
Regardless, that much glass -- over 15 feet by 8 feet -- forming a single picture, is rad. They unveiled them at a yacht show in February, so you can imagine the market they're aiming for. We've no idea if these will ship soon, or in the US. But that doesn't matter. You can't afford this TV. –Brian Lam

Definitely not in the budget for most home theaters, we think this high-end Panasonic PT-DW10000U 1080p projector might fit nicely into the HGTV Dream Home that the Gizmodo team is anticipating moving into this Sunday when they announce us as the big winners.
For $75,000, it comes with 3-chip DLP, four bulbs rocking 10,000 lumens, 1080p (1920x1080), 5000:1 contrast ratio, and an "auto cleaning robot" to extend filter life to 2000 hours. The unit can operate in temps up to 113 degrees thanks to a liquid cooling system and three big exhaust fans. Could get noisy. Definitely useful for those screening rooms in hell. – Charlie White and Curtis Joe Walker

Future set-top boxes and gateways from Thomson SA are going to come with video watermarking tech that will allow investigators to pinpoint the origin of pirated videos. The tech, NexGuard, identifies "individual copies of the films distributed digitally to cinemas or on DVD as preview copies for reviewers and awards juries." Before video content leaves a gateway or set-top box, it embeds a watermark unique to each device using the box's digital video chip.
The watermarks identify both the "network operator distributing the content" and the individual device. A spokesman said that people "should not be upset about this unless they are widely redistributing content." Thomson sees it as a way to "slow down piracy without limiting the use of the consumer."
So, if you feel upset or limited, that means you're a pirate. – Matt Buchanan
