<br />
Want to know what's in your cupboard? What you need to buy more of? Want to cook in the package? Check out eCoupled's new technology, soon to be available. Can you imagine if our libraries were set up this way. The books would know if they were off the shelf, or out of order!<br />

<br />
You can cook anywhere you install one of the small contact points. Charge and run devices wirelessly.<br />

<br />
<br />
Charge your electric car wirelessly. If all parking lots had these (not sure about the snow in Maine though), we could be charging as we grocery shop, go to the dentist, etc.<br />

The Eee Pad MeMO by Asus is a tablet and a phone combined that will be coming out this summer. The device comes with a Bluetooth headset with mic for receiving calls. It has a 7 inch touch screen and two cameras. One camera is on the front (1.2 megapixel) for making video calls and one on the back (5 megapixel) with an LED flash. It also has a stylus for taking notes and drawing in the included apps, Media Note and Painter.<br />

<br />
<br />
The Motorola Xoom Tablet is another good tablet soon to be released...maybe in April. It is larger with a 10.1 in. screen. It has 32 GB of internal memory and a great battery that will last for up to 10 hours. Again, it has a 5 megapixel camera on the back and a 2 megapixel camera on the front for video calls. When it is released it will be 3G with Verizon, but soon to handle 4G networks.<br />

And then there's the Toshiba:<br />

Just think about the possibilities...<br />
Xbox Live subscribers can interact with up to 15 friends and family using their Kinect avatars and motion control. Some ideas? Any time you need to get people together that aren't in the same room. Meetings, collaborative groups, how about interviewing a famous person avatar, a book character? Those are just a few ideas without thinking too hard.Donna Smithhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13738281869266957726noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8200376468381930135.post-15042717216020499602011-01-08T10:12:00.000-05:002011-01-08T10:14:18.716-05:00Maps of CES<p class="mobile-photo"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNTUv8iobdcx7EAluXjajnCq591pC0kjDk2jBD21lHo3WJZYGslyNgqUewzhvskWef5aPXnwHrYKADKBbW4aHAIzsXVhAzcqQxDWva6eVBV24h7-D12X4BFmoqXODz8ft416dbicIuoYCM/s1600/photo-758717.JPG"><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgNTUv8iobdcx7EAluXjajnCq591pC0kjDk2jBD21lHo3WJZYGslyNgqUewzhvskWef5aPXnwHrYKADKBbW4aHAIzsXVhAzcqQxDWva6eVBV24h7-D12X4BFmoqXODz8ft416dbicIuoYCM/s320/photo-758717.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5559833701526842322" /></a></p>This show was too big to see everything.

Coming out mid year. Connect to your computer to download new games to grow with your child. I gave them some feedback on the tablet's games being removed from the device and stored as your children grow, and reloading them as you have another baby. They seemed interested in that feature, so we'll see if it's added! <br />
