CES Press Conference Day 1 Video Transcript

[ Music ] ^M00:00:09

>> Hi. I'm Molly Wood from CNET.com here at CES 2009. It is Press Day this year, so I've been attending press conferences galore from the likes of LG, Samsung, Audiovox, and Toshiba. Already the trends are very clear: thin design, internet-connected televisions, and energy efficiency. ^M00:00:25 [ Music ] ^M00:00:34

>> Toshiba launches new TV models. LCD TV-DVD combos and network players that incorporate platforms from INTEL, Yahoo, and Microsoft. Toshiba's innovative network devices will bring digital content, such as streamed video downloadable movies, recorded TV shows, and even Internet TV through one device. ^M00:01:02 [ Music and applause ] ^M00:01:17

>> A small acoustic research remote that can control multiple devices, including Apple TV, iPod docking units, the television, and home audio. They work right out of the box, with one remote setup controlling thousands of devices without the need to go online setup. The advanced code library from UEI is built right into the remote, so you just tell it what brand of devices you've got, and you're ready to go.

>> There you have it. Greener, thinner, and streaming more and more. For CNET.com, I'm Molly Wood coming at you from CES 2009. ^M00:01:51 [ Music ]
