drag2share: LG Cinema Screen LCD HDTVs slice bezel to 1mm, let two players share one TV

LG has been pushing its flavor of 3DTV as Cinema 3D, and now it has slipped the theater related nomenclature onto another feature, the 1mm thin LCD bezels it has dubbed "Cinema Screen". It claims this move brings the experience closer to the theater, but that's not the only new feature for 2012. LG announced it will offer Dual Play, where it uses polarized glasses to let two different players see only their perspective on the full screen at once in games that support it. Vizio demonstrated the feature last year as Versus and Sony brought it to market in the PlayStation 3D display. We'll likely get more time with those razor thin bezels once CES is truly underway, for now check after the break for the press release.

drag2share: Fujifilm X-Pro1 lenses get Amazon product pages, prices

Source: http://www.engadget.com/2012/01/08/fujifilm-x-pro1-lenses-get-amazon-product-pages-prices/

Well, that didn't take long. Just yesterday, Wells Fargo Advisors reportedly outed the Fujifilm X-Pro1, a possible successor to the X100 -- today, Amazon's thrown up a trio of product pages for the shooter's leaked lenses. The product descriptions match the previous rumors to a tee, pricing the 18mm (27mm equivalent) f/2.0 and 35mm (53mm equivalent) f/1.4 lens at $500, and the larger 60mm (90mm equivalent) f/2.4 lens priced at $600. Confirmation? Not exactly, but we'll find out soon enough -- Fuijifilm takes these stage on January 9th.

drag2share: Toshiba's Dishing Out a 55-inch 3DTV with 4x the HD (And No Glasses!) [Televisions]

Source: http://gizmodo.com/5873873/toshibas-dishing-out-a-55+inch-with-4x-the-hd-and-zero-glasses

If you have over $10,000 and a hunger for ludicrously high definition TVs, Toshiba's impending 55-inch predator is gunning for your wallet and cranium. 4k resolution is more spec candy than anything, but glasses-free 3D? Yes please.

If you want 3D, you'll have to do with a measly 720p, but 2D content will enjoy the beastly mega-resolution that smashes 1080p by a factor of four. Engadget says it'll arrive the first quarter of this year. So start saving. Let's hope CES has more headwear-eliminating 3D sets (and 4k resolution monsters). [Engadget via The Verge]

drag2share: ASUS promises Windows 8 on ARM tablet, 3G Transformer Prime, 7-inch Eee Memo Pad

Source: http://www.engadget.com/2012/01/07/asus-windows-8-tablet-promised/

We're still days away from CES but the promises show no signs of slowing down. ASUS is the latest, hosting a Taipei event in which its representatives rattled off a long list of fabulous devices to whet your appetite. First up is a 3G version of the Transformer Prime, presumably boasting some more capable AGPS onboard. We're told the 7-inch Eee Memo Pad will be on display here at CES as well but, most interestingly, that a tablet running Windows 8 on ARM is coming a little further down the road. It's said to be at least similar in design to the Prime but an indicated release of late 2012 sadly leaves us wanting.

Frowny-faced USB adapters? They're the future, says Motorola. The company has just posted a teaser video inviting us all to "Stay Unplugged," featuring an animated USB brick that will break your heart as it sheds a single tear. What does this mean? Wireless power is going to be a big part of the company's CES plans, we'd say, but we'll all have to wait and see the details. In the interim, don't feel bad for the poor thing. It is, after all, a vampire.
