Conceptronic unveils Grab 'n GO Full HD media player

Conceptronic already made a relatively big splash at CeBIT, but to be honest, we're equally intrigued by its new Grab 'n GO Full HD Media Player. Hailed as a "personal bridge to stream all digital files," the device includes a gigabit Ethernet jack and a USB port for connecting flash drives or external HDDs. As for the all important file support list, you'll find the ever-popular XviD along with MOV, WMV, H.264, MPEG1/2/4, JPEG, MP3, WMA, AVI and VOB (among others). 'Course, it also supports 1080p output via HDMI, and there's even a coaxial digital audio output for good measure. Regrettably, there's no word on a price or release date just yet.

Conceptronic intros the Media Giant HD media server / DVR


There are a ton of DVRs with media server / streamer features out there, but the new Media Giant from Conceptronic manages to distinguish itself by being one of the more flexible units we've seen, at least on paper. The 1TB DVR features UPnP setup with DLNA support, a built-in analog tuner, a Twonky server, component, composite and firewire inputs, HDMI and component out, digital audio out, an optional PowerLine networking adapter, and a laundry list of supported codecs, including DivX, XviD, WMV9, SVCD and VOB. Not a bad little box -- but we won't know about pricing or availability until it gets officially official at CeBit next week.

Acer's H5350 entry-level HD projector

So CeBIT '08 is just around the corner, and Acer's warming up for the monstrous international tradeshow with this little gem. The H5350 projector blasts out a 1280 x 720 image at 2000 ANSI lumens, a 2000:1 contrast ratio and a 28 dB noise level. It can accept inputs up to 1920 x 1080 in resolution from its HDMI input, and boasts a 4000 hour lamp life. No word on price or exact release date.
