The year 2008 has started and I am sure everybody is excited about turning over a new leaf and entering a new year. If you are gadget and electronic freak like me then I'm sure you are excited about all the new gadgets the new year will brings as well. I'm going to talk about a few of the gadgets I'm most excited about which we will see in 2008.
First off the SanDisk Sansa TakeTV Video Player. This cool little gadget bridges the gap between your TV and computer. You plug the SanDisk TakeTV flash drive into your computer and download video on to it. Anything from YouTube videos to funny videos clips you get as attachments in your email. Then you place the TakeTV drive into the TakeTV cradle which is hooked up to your TV. That is it. The videos on the flash drive can now be played on your TV. The SanDisk Sansa TakeTV Video Player even comes with a remote control. You can find the TakeTV at your local electronics store like BestBuy, Circuit City, and Office Depot.
Now of course one of my top gadgets for 2008 would be related to the Apple iPod. I mean how could not pick a gadget for an iPod. This iPod accessory is a small device which you insert into certain Nike shoes. It will then track distance, time, pace and calories burned as you workout or walk your way to being more healthy. Plus the device gives real-time verbal feedback as your workout and can track your progress and fitness goals as well. Now that is a cool iPod accessory.
Next up is a USB device. If you are like me then you have all kinds of gadgets which use USB as a power source. Well what do you do when you need to power up that device and you are not by your computer or have a friends computer close by? The 4 Port USB Car Charger is the answer. You can plug this gadget into any standard lighter jack in your car and you have 4 USB ports to charge all your gadgets. How convenient is that?
Last but definitely not least is the Sony PS3. Now I know what you are thinking the PS3 has been out for over a year now its not a new electronic. You are right but 2008 is going to be the year that the PS3 really takes off. It just got a price cut a few months ago and Sony just won the battle of the next generation DVDs with Blu-ray over HD-DVD. Plus there are a lot of hot games coming up in the next few months for the PS3. Can you say Grand Theft Auto? Yep it will be out shortly and I can guarantee it will help sell a few PS3. Gran Turismo will be out next month and if you have not seen the previews for it go take them out. They are unreal.
So there you have four of my favorite gadgets for 2008. This is sure to be an exciting year for gadgets and electronics.

The Asus Multimedia Laptop and the Philips Cineos LCD TV
This year, laptops and LCD TVs have been very popular purchases with customers and with so many to choose from it can be difficult to make the distinction between them all. Here are two of the most impressive gadgets around that may help entice you into making a decision about what you would like to own more.
The first of the two electrical gadgets up for discussion is the Asus M70. This laptop in the Asus range has been described as an ultimate multimedia laptop and it's easy to see why when you look at its specs. It has an incredible, and almost unheard of, one terabyte of storage (TB), and to really show why it's an ultimate multimedia device, it has a built-in Blu-ray drive that can be used for watching high definition films when you are on the go.
These specs really do make this machine stand out from other laptops that are on the market at the moment and on top of those already mentioned the laptop also has an Intel Core 2 Duo T9300 processor, a 17-inch light-sensitive high definition (1920 x 1280) screen, built-in Altec lancing speakers and subwoofer for a more powerful and defined sound and an ATI HD3650 graphics card with 1GB VRAM and also 4GB of DDR2 memory. These impressive features mean that this laptop is essentially unrivalled in its capabilities and it also uses innovative technology in its mouse pad which doubles as a control panel which assists finger tip system control when using the laptop.
An LCD TV that seems to tick all the boxes and is also very impressive to look at, with its smooth edges and glossy appearance, is the Philips Cineos, well the Philips Cineos 42PFL9703 to be precise. This TV is another one of Philips' sets that uses the Ambilight technology. The idea of lighting the wall behind the TV is not to everyone's taste but for many it is a very popular asset. However, this TV has a different form of the Ambilight, rather than forward-facing lights, it has a third light strip that is situated at the top of the unit. This promises to immerse you even further into the film that you are watching.
However, this 42-inch TV has far more to offer its owner than this alone. The Philips Cineos also produces a really crisp sound. The speakers are designed to give out a high frequency sound without any obstruction, making your viewing experience even better.
