Wireless HDTV, a Facebook rabbit, PC-MAC file sharing made
simple, 1000 speed Compact Flash cards, the best Nikon yet – D4, hi-def video
from a remote controlled helicopter,
radar protection and GPS pet retrieval are just some of what’s in store
for this “gotta-have” collection from CES.

Vegas, but you’ll be seeing many of the products introduced at the show in the
coming months on your store shelves. Here are another dozen that caught my eye
as I wandered the 35 football field’s worth of exhibits.
