Clear Speakers, Segway Clone Top CES Coverage

Posted by CmdrTaco on Sunday January 11, 2004 @05:04AM from the wish-I-coulda-gone dept.

jlouderb writes "Phew. We just finished five days of wall to wall coverage of this year's Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. Highlights include "invisible" speakers, a Segway clone for around $1,000, details on Intel's LCoS plans, a humanoid robot from Sony and more HDTV recorders, new home networking schemes and flat panel TVs than you can shake a stick at. If you weren't one of the 100,000 or so who made it to Vegas, check out what you missed at PCMag.com."

Coincidentally, there are no known photographs of these "invisible" speakers.

  I managed to get this picture. I wasn't able to hear them in action, though.

  What do you mean you can't see them. I can see them, why can't you! And they sound beautiful.
  
  I'm really happy about The Emperors new speakers. Almost as cool as The Emperors new clothes.

Throwing your voice just got a hell of a lot easier. I foresee excellent office pranks.

Right, because even an idiot can keep the Segway balanced.

Over in Europe, there have been a lot of stories about obesity in America. Do you suppose that some people have got to the point where they have to use a vehicle like this just to reach thier car?
