I took a look at the CES Innovation 2007 Awards honorees yesterday. Among some of the more well known innovations of this year I found myself faced with some very interesting PVR related that I previously had not heard of.Here is a summary of some of the interesting PVR related devices I came across, some you may recognize, some are yet to be released:
- Tzero Analog Wireless HDMI - First standards-based for enabling wireless A/V connections between all types of products - HDTVs, DVD players, STBs, PVRs and more.
iPTV Anywhere – I recently covered this device. It works much like a Slingbox streaming video from your living room to a portable 7inch screen PMP.- Echostar DVR Video Archiving – PVR feature that allows you to create a virtually unlimited library of their favorite TV programs and movies.
