Sony is about to drop a new line of HDTVs in Japan. The Bravia LCDs come in a ton of different shapes, sizes, and price tags. The one that will put the smallest hole in your pocket is the EX300, which ranges from ¥70,000-90,000 ($770-$990) and features a 1,366 x 768 resolution in a 22, 26, or 32-inch model. For four times that pricetag you can get the EX700 model at 52-inches with LED backlight, a thinness of only 22mm, widgets and other cool features, and network ability for YouTube and DLNA compatibility. There’s also the EX500, which is the 40-inch, 120Hz, 1080p model for ¥130,000 ($1,400). All the models will be available in Japan on February 25th, and will hopefully launch in the US and Europe sometime after.

Skiff, LLC and Sprint just announced on January 4th that the Skiff Reader will be previewed at the 2010 International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas this week. The Skiff reader is the first e-reader for newspapers and magazines – much larger than the Kindle at 11.5 inches and a 1600×1200 resolution, but only a quarter of an inch thick. It only weighs a little over a pond and can last, on average, over a week of use between charges. The device will connect to the Skiff digital store via Wi-Fi and Sprint’s 3G network and can be used for not only newspapers and magazines, but books, blogs and other content as well from multiple publishers. It is also durable since it is made out of a flexible sheet of stainless-steel foil instead of glass, and can actually bend a fair amount without damage.

TechCrunch just posted an extensive review on the Google Nexus One, the first mobile phone, and self-proclaimed “Super phone” from Google. They rave that the smartphone is not only the best Android device to date, but it also wins out over the iPhone in many ways as well. With a 3.7 inch 480 x 800 OLED touchscreen and a Snapdragon 1 GHz core processor, it is able to handle multiple applications, graphics, and heavy browser use without any hindrance to its fast performance. The only downside seems to be its brief battery life, which can be killed after 1.5 hours of game play on its brightest display settings. Some notable features include noise cancellation (including machinery and noise from the other end), a 5 megapixel camera with an LED flash, and two available docks – a normal charger and a car charger that turns on Google Navigation. The Nexus One will be available this month for $529 in the U.S., U.K., Hong Kong, and Singapore. You can get one through T-Mobile for $179 with a contract or use the unlocked phone with AT&T, although the radio can’t use the 3G network. If you can wait until Spring, a CMDA version of the phone will be available through Verizon, and through Vodafone in Europe.

If you’re looking for a decent, cheap speaker that’s easy to carry and won’t empty your wallet, this apple shaped speaker is a good purchase. The versatile gadget is not an Apple product, but rather is shaped like the fruit and can hook up to MP3 players, laptops, and any other device with a 3.5 mm stereo audio connector. It uses a rechargeable Lithium ion battery and comes attached to a little keychain for easy transport. At only $13 you can pick one up at USB Brando in yellow, red, pink, green or black.

The Ambient Flurry is a clock radio that provides weather information as well. It features today’s forecast, tomorrow’s, and a band of text showing the weather conditions throughout the day. It’s self sufficient too – you don’t have to connect it to the internet. It actually uses Ambient’s own wireless information network to connect to AccuWeather.com. The network is free and updates your clock throughout the day. Besides that, the Flurry also has a dual-alarm system and a radio. They are available now at Best Buy for $130.

Italian site Cellularmania got their hands on the Samsung i5700 and has posted a hands-on gallery as well as a list of specs.

No word on pricing or release date yet, but it is unlikely to ever make an appearance in the United States.

Walter Mossberg, principal technology columnist for the Wall Street Journal, has leaked a preview of the BlackBerry Storm 2. Mossberg says the biggest improvement RIM has made is the revamped touchscreen, which provides “faster, smoother typing.” WiFi is another new feature, as well as a portrait-mode keyboard, but supposedly the touch interface is still a bit dated. The Storm 2 will be available around November for $200.
