One of the coolest little products I saw at CES was the Webbie HD camera from Sony. While I’m not a fan of the name (the manual calls it the Mobile HD Snap which is much better), this pocket sized tapeless cam shoots 30-frame HD video at either 720P or 1080P. It’s clearly targeted to…

Four CES 2009 Products Apple Needs To Plagiarize
[digg=http://digg.com/apple/Four_CES_2009_Products_Apple_Needs_To_Plagiarize] Apple has always often been the innovator. The company that sets the trends.
