Lenovo is the latest company to show off an all-in-one with a 3D camera
In case you haven't noticed, Lenovo is showing off an insane amount of stuff here at CES 2015. Tablets, smartphones, a smartwatch, laptops, more laptops. Now, rounding out the list, we're seeing the company's latest desktops. Of the three, there's only one you probably want to know about, and that's the B50, a 23.8-inch all-in-one with Intel's RealSense motion-sensing 3D camera setup (as pictured in the above close-up). As it happens, you're going to be seeing RealSense on a lot of gadgets this week at CES -- everything from laptops to tablets to desktops like this. Depending on the form factor -- and also the specific company -- the use cases for that 3D camera are going to differ a little bit each time. After all, there's no accounting for what software they pre-load on the machine. In the case of the B50, though, Lenovo seems to be pushing the gaming angle -- in a demo, I played a game where I lifted soldiers to safety using an onscreen hand (operated by my real hand, of course).
Sprint's Palm C40: the Pre 2 that never made it
Take a look through the trousers of time at what might have been; a Palm Pre 2 on Sprint. WebOSNation managed to grab the very rare prototype from a Palm employee and it fortunately worked on the Now Network without the need for any screwdrivers or warranty busting. Despite its second-hand status, the phone cheerfully handled webOS 2.2.4, albeit without a licensed webOS Doctor. Aside from the swap to a CDMA radio, the rest of phone hardware chimes with the Verizon version that did arrive. A handful of bloatware Sprint apps are on the device, including a ringtone store -- how quaint! Take a closer look at the source below.
The Blusens catalog: a mythical garden of vaporous delights?
We've never paid much attention to Spain's Blusens, but we just got hold of the company's 2008 catalog and frankly, we're impressed. We don't know how much of this stuff will ever actually see the light of day, but there's some seriously sick (hypothetical) gear in there, like the G.41 PMP pictured above, which features a 4.3-inch screen, WiFi, MP3, WMA, MPEG4 and Ogg support, an integrated digital camera, voice recorder, FM radio, and what looks like a well-polished UI. Also worth noting is the G.71 media streamer / DVR, available in DVD or Blu-ray versions, which features a removable hard drive and external storage support, dual DVB-T tuners, IPTV support, Ethernet, WiFi, HDMI-out, and DivX / DivX HD / XviD, H.264 and MPEG2 support. Rounding out the highlights is the C.40 VoIP phone, which'll let you Skype it up over WiFi. Some of these designs rip pretty heavily from other companies, and again, we're not at all certain what's real and what's not, but damn -- Blusens, welcome to the scene. Peep the whole catalog in the gallery.[Via Gizmología]%Gallery-8510%
