Sony brings TomTom to US-bound XNV-770BT and XNV-660BT in-dash head units

We heard back at IFA that Sony was making the absolutely brilliant move of incorporating a market leading navigational system into its Xplod line of in-dash A/V units, and now that love is being shipped across the Atlantic (or the Pacific, if you’re taking the scenic route) in the form of the XNV-770BT and XNV-660BT.

Rockchip shows off Android-based desk phone, won’t sell you one

We unfortunately didn’t spot this one ourselves at IFA , but it looks like Rockchip had more than just the usual tablets on display at the show — it also had this Android-based desk phone tucked away at its booth.

Toshiba AC100 smartbook preview: what were you expecting?

Despite the downright sexy hardware, it was no surprise that the Toshiba AC100 (which has just been launched in the UK ) didn’t review very well : Android just isn’t ready to give an enjoyable smartbook experience.

Toshiba’s CEVO-Engine is Cell on steroids, with an ultra-bright LED LCD to burn your eyeballs into submission

Toshiba will be happy to tell you that its upcoming CEVO-Engine, which launches early next year in a “sub-€5,000″ TV designed by former B&O-fave design firm Jacob Jensen Design, is the best thing ever, but it takes some work to figure out just exactly why that’s the case. We did some digging, subjected our eyeballs to the display’s brilliance, and have our full thoughts on the new tech after the break.

Panasonic HDC-SDT750 3D camcorder preview

THREEE DEEE. Sorry, just had to get that out of our system. We just played with Panasonic’s HDC-SDT750 THREEE DEEE, er, 3D camcorder, and it certainly works as billed.

LG LEX8 ‘Nano LED’ TV eyes-on

While we admire the impulse to best your South Korean neighbor and build the world’s thinnest X (in this case, the world’s thinnest full LED LCD TV bezel), you can’t help but notice the base at the bottom where all the components that used to be in the back have been crammed seems to grow ever larger with each passing tradeshow. Still, LG’s LEX8 8.8mm thick LCD is impressively thin and the picture quality, thanks to that localized “Nano LED” dimming, is stellar. Hit up the gallery for a requisite thickness comparo with an iPhone — next year we’re just gonna pack some razor blades for comparison shots.

An IFA 2010 moment of Zen

We’re not sure why, but Panasonic loves to trot out human exhibits whenever it wants to promote new additions to its camera line. Here’s what they used at IFA 2010 in Berlin. Unfortunately, we’re too freaked-out to remember anything about the camera.
