Macworld 2008: Apple boasts of Leopard success
Steve Jobs kicked off his keynote speech at Macworld today by shouting about Mac OS X Leopard, which has apparently shipped five million copies in its first three months on sale.
CES 2008: Lasonic's i931 iPod boombox exists, makes us consider Adidas shelltoes
Yesterday we found proof that that iPod boombox from Lasonic which we saw months ago wasn’t just a Photoshop/Illustrator spoof – the Lasonic stand only had about fourteen of the 1980s-throwbacks on show!
Coming atcha like a wet flannel, they’re available…
CES 2008: Best car of the show, hands down

CES 2008: VIDEO OF BILL GATES DANCING AT ROCKAOKE!
Ok, so it’s not really Bill Gates. We’re not privileged enough to be allowed in on his and Melinda’s Guitar Hero sessions, sadly, but last night we wound up in a bar holding a rockaoke night, and this chap looked so much like a younger Bill Gates…
CES 2008: Huge thanks to the following companies…
There are a couple of companies out there in this plugged-in world which Tech Digest and Shiny Shiny would just like to raise their foot-long margaritas to, who’ve helped with kitting us out to the max, ensuring our laptops are as light as the free beer served at CES parties, and we won’t turn an embarrassing shade of red when a Gizmodo buy walks past and spies us using a digital camera held together by duct tape.

A huge thanks goes out to these…
CES 2008: DOSS Wireless iPod Speakers
Some of the best stuff we’ve seen at CES so far has been far from the madness of the main halls and the major players with their new phones, digital bloody photo frames and iPod docks. And yet, as you might reasonably point out, this is also an iPod…
CES 2008: Sennheiser debuts Professional headphones for easier listening
Not endorsed by Microsoft, Sennheiser has dropped three new pairs of in-ear headphones, the IE 6, IE 7 and IE 8, part of their ‘Professional’ range. Professional as in, what musicians wear onstage at concerts, not what businessmen wear in conferences. Although I’m betting all the Blu-ray fanboiz were wishing they’d had a pair yesterday when listening to Toshiba’s HD DVD onslaught.
Using dynamic transducers, they cover the entire frequency range with one system, and separate different parts of whatever music you’re listen to, thus eliminating distortion. All three have Kevlar-strenghened cables, and a choice of earbuds to ensure a snug fit…
CES 2008: Kodak's new digital cameras, including touchscreen EasyShare V1273
You’d be forgiven for turning your nose up at the thought of a Kodak digital camera, but honestly, they usually fair better in reviews than a lot of the other big name brands. Adding to their already volumous collection, there’s the EasyShare V1273, a 12-megapixel camera with 3x optical zoom, and 3″ LCD touchscreen, pictured.
Then, there’s the EasyShare M1033, a 10-megapixel camera with the usual 3x optical zoom plus 3″ LCD screen, an EasyShare…
