So I lookied on the sight and I found something pretty awsome that I want really bad. I want the PCs: HP Envy 14 Spectre sooooo bad. I mean my current labtop and computer are currently being "mean" to me. My "g" and "h" keys are not working on either one, and it really bites for me because I use my computer alot for Facebook and research. Plus, this new computer has a glass lid and a palm rest, how awsome is that. Anyway I want this computer and I'll get it one of these days.

i really really want one of these. the high difinition is amazing at first i thought it would be stupid cause of the way the handles stick to the screen like that but it actually looks cool once you see how to play makes me want one so bad. one thing i dont like about the controler is the style it kinda looks like a janky wii but it looks cool to play

I like LG’s 55 inch OLED TV, because it is designed in 3D. The pictures are brighter and it has a built in mic. I would use it, so I would not have to go to the movies to see 3D pictures. I would get a bigger surround sound and blast it so loud my street, and the two streets on down will be able to hear it. I would stay glued to the tv.
-Takarya Taylor 1st
I have to pick the LG OLED Tv because it looks amazing and it would be a great hanging up on the wall of my room. The QNX car 2 moblie apps platform because I think it can cause a distraction for the driver because it looks really cool but I just dont think that it is a very good idea to have in any car that can cause a lot more accidents to happen.

the asus 370T i would use it because its your everyday ipad or galaxy tab only skinner.i think its kool because it can do so much more then my ipod:)

The winner in the green tech category, the Powertrekk (http://ces.cnet.com/8301-33375_1-57356553/powertrekk-powers-your-portable-with-pee-or-water/?tag=mainMedia%3bimageWrapper)would be really useful. I don't camp or go hiking or anything very much, but if I did I would definitely use it. It's a kinda expensive investment, but it's reliable and easy, and if you use a battery powered charger those batteries could die and then you'd be stuck.
-Tobin, 1st
I thought that the HP Envy 14 Spectra was kinda stupid... The makers and designers at HP have seemed to successfully continue in the design of the extremely portable as well as the extremely breakable.
Laptops that are covered in glass dont seem like they would be a good idea.
Brittany Diaz 1st period
I really liked the Pantech Element from AT&T because first of all it is water resistant. I try not to be a clumsy person but sometimes I can be so the fact that I lknow if it were to accidently fall in water and not fry, makes me happy. I would definitely consider getting one of these especially since i'll be starting college next year.
Amanda-1st
My favorite is the Razer Project Fiona. I think it has interesting design style that reminds me of a race car sterring wheel, which is why I like it. Its actually kinda big and bulky for a handheld gaming system though.

I picked the Simple.TV because it is so cool insted of having a tv in every room you could just take your ipad with you. I love it you can watch live tv or record things and even download your recorded shows on to your itunes. If they can work out the legal issues this would be like the coolest thing ever.Emily 4th

The "play station Vita" or PSVita is one of the coolest gaming designs i've seen, it has an OLED screen which is far more advanced than its red headed step brother the PSP, it can pick up the Play Station network where ever you are as long as you have a wifi conection. I believe this will change handheld gaming forever.

this is cool to me because it could really help find music or do what you need as your driving. i would use it mainly for music but im sure there are more ways to use it

It's a 3D printer. What could you NOT do with it? While this isn't the first 3D printer, it is the first to use two colors instead of just one. Plus, it can make bigger things. Oh crap, I broke my coathook/earbud keeper/lovable pony figurine! Guess I'll just print up another one :D

-Brittany Wells, 4th
the 55-inch OLED TV is really cool because it has a brighter picture and it even has 3D viewing. i would enjoy watching games and movies alot more with this tv. buiyng a soround sound system for this tv would be a dream. this tv is so cool i would built a whole livingroom around it.
Bonifilio Soto 4th
the thing that im most interested in is the HP envy 14 spectre. just because i have never had a computer and it looks really cool, sleek shiny and smooth. its awesome.

I love how cars can also be involved with technology, this app is awesome, i like how the touch screan radio looks on the car. and how it can also have enternet.
-Paz 4TH
Project Fiona Tablet concept sounds like something to give to your kids on a road trip just to keep them busy i like it and its like a mini game station without the cards.
-jacques4th
I think Razer Project Fiona was the winner in my opinion its pretty cool how you can have diffirent games on a kinda of a laptop and especially without inserting any type of disk also how it has controls on each side.
Marsilo-fourth period
i really like the PC winner: the HP envy 14 spectre.
i really love apple computers and products and dont think i could go to a different brand. but i really like this laptop. i love the extra glass and the beats audio that is included. i think it would be a great buy.
Caroline Kingham-5
im still amazed with the thinest

I would use this new HP laptop because it's a light design, and the gorilla glass makes it very durable. I like the fact that it comes with the Beats Audio already built in because I mostly use the computer for music purposes.
Jameika-5th
I liked the LG 55EM9600 OLED TV, because of it's slim design that makes the tv image look like a extrememly nice picture of something, can't even really tell it's a tv. The graphics are unreal how nice they are, along with the very thin design make it one of my favorite items shown.
-The Boss; David Radnitzer
-5th
I think that the LG's 55-inch OLED TV is really cool. Even though it is really thin the pictures are very clear and look life-like. It almost looks like a painting hung on the wall. I think it would look better with a border around it, but I really like the TV and would definitely buy it.
-Meleah 5th
I think the HP: Envy 14 Spectre Is stupid because its covered mostly in glass? Uhhh, bad idea much? Laptops are suppose to be portable and sturdy. This one is really breakable might not be a good product.

THIS IS SO COOL! ITS 55 INCHES OF PURE AWESOMENESS! AND NOT JUST 55 INCHES OF PURE AWESOMENESS, 55 INCHES OF 3D AWESOMESS.

I think the HP envy laptop is really cool looking. Its very thin and i love that the speakers are made by beats. I looks very sleek and nice, maybe could even top apple.

i thonk the wiki tablet with the controller is dumb,because it doesnt look like a part of the phone and it just is verry unappealing to me for a phone with those capabilities-matt c-7th
Razer's Project Fiona concept gaming tablet looks so stupid. like we need another wawy to play vidio games. i think the design is pretty cool but you know how people tilt the controler thinking somehow it will make the car or player turn that way. well that would kinda suck for this, since the controlers are apart of the screen.
michi-7
Envy 14 Spectre.
It's made out of glass. Dropping your laptop sucks, but dropping your GLASS laptop while you're, let's say walking around the house barefoot, is a completely different level of "Oh god". Because once that laptop shatters not only have you destroyed a very nice laptop BUT you've also turned your kitchen floor into a mine field of broken glass, and you're right in the middle. To summarize my statement: This is stupid.
-Rye
I think the 55 inch OLED tv is cool because its a big screen tv thats way bigger then my 43 in plasma. I would use it to watch tv like movies and things like that.

I think the Simple TV is a pretty good pick. Being able to watch TV anywhere would be great. Heck. You could make it waterproof and put it in your shower for news...Not that I'd want to anyways.
>.>...<.<...>.<
The only problem I would have with something like this is the connection. If it didn't connect via wireless outside then there would practically be no use for it. (Just buy a freakin TV). I am glad it uses HTML 5. Wireless tech needs HTML 5 browsing. I just hope they kept an "Updates" Feature on it.
PS3 still has not put their web browser in HTML 5...Google will not even work.... (-.-)
~Matthew DeWard 7th Period
Ipersonally think that the LG OLED tvs are a great idea. By going even more thin it makes it even more lighter to carry. The effects on visual also has a great impact. I would definately want one of those.
Eric-7th
I think laptops always have room for upgrade. The 14 spectre laptop is probably the coolest look for a laptop yet. The glass (screen) is larger than any previous and the body is also light and ultra thin. With the trend of small size that everyone seems to loke these days, this laptop is amazing.
Ross C. - 7
I think the replicator thing is AMAZING! Like it's crazy that you could "print" something in 3D. And although it's not very new, it's cool and I'm sure that the technology will get more advanced.
-Katherine :) 7th
I think that the OLED tvs are really cool. The resolution is very nice and the dimensions of the tv are amazing, something that I never thought were possible. However, unless they could be installed directly into your walls, I don't think that I would use one. The depth of the tv is just so small. It seems to fragile to put up on a wall.

i like this because im always watching my tv and to have this tv would be a dream of mine. i think its cool because of how thin it is but how vibrant the colors are.
Shaq - 7th
This razor gaming tablet would be a good replacement to the laptop gameing wise pluse it's a relief that someone is looking into new gameing devices besides consol or desktop. The only thing that is a little wierd about it is that it kind of looks like the controler for the Wii-U system from Nenteno (which, in my humble opinion, isn't going to do very well).

Emerging Tech Winner: MakerBot Replicator
First of all, I was not even aware that things like this exist. I remember when I was in middle school I got an issue of "National Geographic Kids" that talked about all the upcoming technologies and when they were expected to appear. I was very impressed with the idea of a 3D printer, but I had no idea how that could possibly happen. Now I realize it's not as crazy as I thought it was when I was eleven. I think this technology could be very useful in the future, but it seems pretty primitive at this point, with only two colors and not-great detail. But it's got major potential. The price is also surprisingly affordable. I feel like ten years from now, these 3D printers with be capable of fantastic things and located in many regular homes, and I'm excited about that. Also, I expect I'll probably end up using something like this in my job when I grow up.
~Miranda, 8th
i would choose 55-inch OLED TV beacuse it look fancy and with good high defenition. i also waqnt it to play FiFa 12

The Asus Memo 370T I think is the coolest thing out there and is probably the only thing there that I would want to buy and use. It reminds me mostly of the iPad and the Kindle Fire(mainly the iPad because it resembles a computer more so) but the main difference, and winner in my part, is that it is much smaller. My main problem with the iPad is that it is kind abulky and large, as well as many other pad-like touch screen things. This is much smaller but has all the same, if not better, perks as they have.

I like the MakerBot 3D printer becouse the cheaper price, will increase the number of machines out there. with a large number of machines avalible for use, will increase the number users. the more users that have the advantage of this technology will use it to creat a new was of think and open there mind to new ideas. i believe it will increase our ability to creat new technology all together.
@reidperry14 8th
The Razer Project Fiona in my opinion is a bad idea. It looks like an ipad connected to two wii remotes. From the picture, i can pretty much tell that its going to be pretty awkward holding it. The 1000 dollar price tag doesn't help its case either!
Michael Martinez 1st period
I like the OLED TV because its thin and its 3D. I also like the way everything looks on it. Its picture perfect.
K~Mac, 1st
The X-Pro 1 is a really kool camera to use!! its no that big like the other fanzy ones. If i would of bought this camera for my brother he would be so dramatically happy! because this camera is reallly awsome. It almost has everything what every photographer would want in a camera. I would use it everywhere! XD
I THINK THE MARKETBOT REPLICATOR IS A STUPID device or whatever it is. Its lame, its more lame then i thought it was lame. But yea i dont like it i wouldnt use. I would do the design with own bARE HANDS.
1st period HM
The MakerBot Replicator 3D Printer is really cool because it allows you to print in 3D! That would so be good for projects and posters for work or school. That would be really helpful if you want to get a good grade.
Ellen 1st
I dont really play videogames anymore, but after seeing this Razer Tablet with the new software including Windows 8 I got thinking, is this really worth it? And it its! The remote control handels it has on the sides are intresting and are more helpful when playing games like Black Ops or Assassins Creed. The whole touch sreen technology doesn't really inspire me in amyway, im more of the hands on gamer so the handels help with that. Its 10" screen is amasing becuase of its Screen projection and quality of image and effect i would so bye this if i had the moeny.

I like the Razor Project Fiona because it's something new and it's like a portable playstation 3 and a t.v in your hands. It's software Is Window's 8 which is a extra good feature.

I like the Nokia Lumia 900 phone, but it kind of look like the Windows phone that came out last year
Jeron G 4th Pd.
The Razor Project Fiona seems to be a great gaming device. As a gamer i love gaming on the go but hate small sceens and buttons. This gaming concept seems to be bigger and a lot more features than other portable systems on the market.

I looked at the Nokia Lumia 900, and i really like it i would like totally use it because it has a 4.3 inch Amolded display and it comes with a choice of cyan colors, it has a nice camera and a really nice screen, and this is an object i would really be into and use alot
Samantha-4th
PCs: HP Envy 14 Spectre
I WANT THIS SOOO BAAD!! i love my laptop alot but the Envy 14 Spectre has a lot more potential that goes with it. I love that it has a palm rest included and the sound system is from Beats. BEATS ARE THE BESTT!! but anyway, my only concern about the Spectre is that it is 95% glass. Dont get me wrong, i love glass, but i have little siblings, and kids with glass dont always mix. Ever. But other than that, I cant wait until it comes out!
Meagan McG-4th
I really liked the car tech. because it has bluetooth and it will automaticly pair with my phone. i like the app intergration

i think the playstation vita is kinda copying the wii and that makes it unapealing to me,but if they cameup with a new design not so wii based i would give it a go

I LOVE the Razor Project Fiona. I love that it is a gaming tblet that is going to be as cheap as only $1000. Plus, all PC games will work on it. Tablets usually have the best screens for just such an occasion as playing video games. I WANT THIS SO BAD O_O
-Luke 7th
so my pick would be the fujifilm camera one because im really into photography and taking pictures..... and two it's cool because unlike many camera's these day's this one doesn't have mirrror's to reflect the image...so i thought that was pretty cool.....
http://ces.cnet.com/8301-33375_1-57356553/powertrekk-powers-your-portable-with-pee-or-water/?tag=mainMedia%3bimageWrapper
The Powertrekk is a technology that I found very useful and beneficial to the environment. First of all, when you can use one of the most abundant resources on the planet to fuel your smaller electronics, it makes powering up that much easier. Also, it's portable. With a moving society like ours, portable things just make life that much greater. Even your pee can be used to fuel it. You might need to be careful and wash your hands well afterwards. Finally, going green is the most important benefit to me. It saves us from using coal or other fossil fuels to power up electricity. With this, we can create a cleaner environment for us, helping our future lives to be healthier.
Neil Baquiran 7th
I like the Razer Project Fiona because its really good for when you want to use it in a computer game and would make it alot easier to play your favorite games online.

i really like the lap top. i like how its mirror like and very small. i think it would be neat to have one so for the girls you can do touch ups on your make-up and hair and dudes can scope out females without them knowing. point blank i like this because its something new.

The Fiona Tablet concept, I would use the tablet for when I go camping or on a trip. Cause I usually get bored from just fishing for two days. I would play some video games like need for speed or use it for other things like writing stories on the go cause I like to write. Maybe put a drawing tool on the tablet and draw all weekend.

HP envy 14 Spectre - This product seems really cool to me because it's basically a laptop that has been almost completely covered in glass. Now usually this would be bad for an object like a laptop, but this happens to be Gorilla glass making it very durable and scratch proof. - Trenton B. 8th

I love LG's new tv with OLED 3D.
one of the reasons why it makes it so cool would have to be the 4mm- size screen making it the smallest width size tv in the world. One of my concerns would be that since it's size is so small the tv wouldn't react to heavy movement well and crack from not having enough support.
