CES 2007: Betty Boo guitars for the rock ladeees

post from Shiny Shiny on 08 January 2007 10:03:54 PM. © Shiny Shiny

If you're not up for the USB guitar, perhaps you'd like a guitar with Betty Boo's mug plastered all over it. The jury's still out on this one, but apparently it's ideal for those that need an extra push to get into the music scene. They've also brought out a Jack Daniel's version, which you can read all about over at Tech Digest if you like your guitars 80% proof. Apparently Peavey, the manufacturers, are well-known for producing top quality guitars, something I will admit to knowing nothing about. Thank god for Google.

DirecTV

post from Gizmos for Geeks :: on 08 January 2007 09:12:56 PM. © Gizmos for Geeks ::

You?ve probably already seen our article about DirecTV?s announcement of the Sat-Go. As I attended back to back conferences between EchoStar and DirecTV and it seemed DirecTV continually one-upped DISH? for the most part.For example, EchoStar announced a partnership with Nascar while DirecTV announced the Nascar HotPass where five various drivers have their own channel each week starting at Daytona in a month. Each channel will include 2 announcers and 25-30 cameras so fans of drivers can follow their favorite drivers.

You've probably already seen our article about DirecTV's announcement of the Sat-Go. I attended back to back conferences by EchoStar and DirecTV and it seemed that DirecTV one-upped DISH on everything that Dish announced with the exception of the DVR.For example, EchoStar announced a partnership with Nascar while DirecTV announced the Nascar HotPass where five various drivers have their own channel each week starting at Daytona in a month. Each channel will include 2 announcers and 25-30 cameras so fans can follow their favorite drivers.

Not only is she the shiny with the best grasp of gonzo journalism, Kat also happens to be a gamer girl in disguise, which explains why she got all excited at the sight of the 3 foot Mario model on the stand packed with Nintendo accessories. Not sure how to carry your Wii yet? Look no further...

CES 2007: the USB guitar

Even rock stars like to cut out the middle man sometimes. The iAXE393 lets you record directly to your hard drive without any fiddly kit in between the two, and also lets you jam with your own MP3 tracks of Rachel Stevens AC/DC. Sadly, no Take That, Girls Aloud or Coldplay come included. Wonder why?

Software is included to record multi-track rawk ballads and edit them to sound professional (i.e. like Slash, rather than like a hamfisted amateur), and there's a built-in headphone port so you don't wake the neighbours with your solos. Oh, and you can use it as a regular guitar too, by connecting it to an amp.

The iAXE393 is out in the US and costs around $99, but apparently sells around the world, with us Europeans particularly keen. If Jimi Hendrix was part of the iPod generation, he would've owned one. Although hopefully he wouldn't have set fire to it.
