Well, it looks like Oregon Scientific will be making a respectable enough showing at CES, with it set to show off a mix of old-ish products like the ACT5K action camera pictured at right, and some new and updated products that it'll apparently only be fully taking the wraps off at the big show. Those include the portable SimpleCast device, which promises to provide to provide quick and easy weather information for all of the U.S., the SmartGlobe Elite, an updated version of its existing internet-updateable desktop globe, and the Desktop Emergency Radio Weather Station, which offers SAME alert programming capabilities and other weather alerts, along with temperature information and, of course, an LED backlit display. No word on prices or release dates for any of those just yet, unfortunately, but we're guessing those details will be making themselves known in the days ahead.
From my perspective OS has been really hit-or-miss with new product lines. Some of them fill niches nicely but others sometimes seem to be trying to create a market around a device rather than finding the market and delivering them a device that fits their needs... Like solutions without problems.
In addition their customer support is the worst possible.
OS? The weather station is the perfect present for those relatives/friends you do not very well, you do not bother to know very well but you need to buy something that will not completely sucks...
