A shot of the Las Vegas strip. Starting Wednesday, the world's biggest technology confab of them all - the Consumer Electronics Show - gets underway.
A bogus leak or the Real McCoy? We'll know the answer soon enough but the blog Glimpse Dog got its hands on what it says is a leaked slide of Microsoft's 2011 CES keynote speech, displaying what purports to be an upcoming Xbox 360 feature the company is dubbing "Avatar Kinect."
Intel
Intel, which already shared some details about its 2011 plans, will shed more light during its CES 2011 press conference slated for Wednesday. The company recently revealed its intention to come out with a more powerful generation of chips where Access to Hollywood content is also baked into the microprocessor.
Lenovo
A year ago at CES, Lenovo showed a concept product it called the IdeaPad U1 Hybrid, a portable computer with a detachable tablet. The tablet is now called LePad, and it's a real, 10.1-inch Android device. But for the foreseeable future, the product is likely to be available only in Lenovo's home China market.
Microsoft
With CES fast-approaching, the rumor mill is at full bore, and one of the latest items to come out of it is that Microsoft will be rolling out a "stripped-down version of Windows" that will run on set-top boxes and upcoming TV sets.
LG

Nvidia
With 3D a theme at CES this year, graphics chipmaker Nvidia unveiled a site for content called 3DVisionLive. The website allows you to share 3D photos and see more from professional photographers; watch short videos, trailers, and sports; and rate the content that you view.
