Samsung refreshing the Series 5 Chromebook, releasing the Chromebox in Q2
In case anyone wasn’t sure about what we’d be seeing at CES this year, let me tell you — Ultrabooks! They are a hot ticket item and we’ll be seeing plenty over the next week. Toshiba is already running strong with a few sleek 14″ laptops but we’ve spotted a brand new 14″ ultrabook and have plenty of pictures. With an already solid lineup with products like the Portege Z835 they have a strong offering but we wont turn away an ultra-sleek, ultra-powerful 14″ laptop — right?
Wondering just how hot the Ultrabook token is here at CES?

Acer reveals Timeline Ultra at CES: eight hours of life, shipping Q1 2012
Not surprisingly, Acer’s jumping on the quickly-expanding Ultrabook bandwagon here at CES 2012, with the Aspire S5 being the first out of the chute. It’s a 13.3-incher that’ll check it at under three pounds, offering up Instant On functionality, a magnesium-aluminum alloy cover (in Onyx Black), HDMI / USB 3.0 / Thunderbolt (!) ports and an SSD for good measure. We’re told that it’ll start shipping in Q2 of this year, but other details remain under wraps.

Acer announces ‘world’s thinnest’ 13.3-inch Aspire S5 Ultrabook at CES 2012 (update: pictures)
CES 2012 is expected to be reigned by the generation of Ultrabooks , but the netbooks of the world refuse to quit without a fight — at least that’s what Toshiba hopes. According to Notebook Italia , the Japanese company is expected to introduce the NB510 mini-machine in Las Vegas next week, splitting the numerical difference between the NB500 and NB520 from a year ago. The rig’s said to be sporting Intel’s Cedar Trail Atom processors, accompanied by one gig of DDR3 RAM, a WSVGA (1,024 x 600) display and it’ll be running on Windows 7 Starter Edition

Well, look at what we have here. Though it didn’t arrive as early as rumored, the ThinkPad X1 Hybrid running Android is, in fact, a real, whirring product. Lenovo just unveiled the laptop, which has a fanless “Instant Media Mode” promising to double the original X1′s (rather skimpy) battery life to as much as ten hours.
Thin and light may be the name of the game for many when it comes to mobile computing, but there’s still plenty of folks who need a full-featured portable machine.
Though the holidays are once again coming to a close, we now find ourselves just a week away from every geek’s ultimate holiday — the 2012 Consumer Electronics Show , arguably the biggest event of the year for the tech world.

We can’t be certain as to how many units of the HTC EVO 4G LTE have made it out of customs thus far, but it appears the number is high enough for Sprint to officially set a date for shipping the device out to those who pre-ordered it online. A Sprint representative reached out to us to share the company’s statement from this afternoon that customers should expect to receive their valuable treasure “on or around” May 24th. We’re not in love with the “around” terminology, but this could simply be due to a high amount of demand.

(Credit: Pentax) I have to admit: the $900 Pentax K-30 dSLR sounds like a pretty promising replacement for the K-r. Rugged on the outside with the potential for the same excellent photo quality as the K-01 mirrorless ILC, claimed faster autofocus performance than the already fast K-5, and a 100 percent coverage viewfinder that you usually only see in more expensive models all add up to a possibly great start to the Pentax-Ricoh era. Though it’s not “durable” in the same sense as bodies like the Nikon D4 or Canon EOS-1D X , with parts designed to withstand heavy photographic abuse, the K-30 offers weather-and-dust resistance, with claims of usability down to 14 degrees (most cameras only guarantee down to 32 degrees); that said, Pentax makes no claims about battery life at those temperatures.

House After eight seasons, the run of Gregory House MD comes to an end on Fox tonight with a double episode. While we’ll miss Hugh Laurie fumbling around on our American TV screens every week, it definitely felt like time for the series to come to an end. We’ll see how Wilson’s cancer diagnosis wraps up and if any other old characters stop by after Thirteen popped up last week, although we will avoid throwing back a Vicodin just for old time’s sake.

Never one to focus exclusively on the very latest hardware , a new mod has brought an 6502 microprocessor to a Minecraft world near you. The system is made from three separate cubes, representing the CPU, monitor and disk drive, respectively, all connected by ribbon cables. Part of pre-release 5 of the RedPower 2 mod, programmer Eloraam has also thrown in pumps and solar panels to keep crafters busy — you’re no longer limited to light switches
