CES 2006 Profile: Time Trax Technologies

Time Trax Technologies, a maker of hardware and software products to record content from radio broadcasts to individual MP3 files, announced a new product line at CES 2006 which combines a FM radio dock with a MP3 player.

The new Time Trax TraxCatcher line, of which the first model will be available in April for $159.99, works by plugging it into a wall, tuning to a radio station and returning several hours later to remove the included, portable MP3 player from its docking slot to hear individual MP3s of each song recorded off the air. These songs can be transferred via a USB 2.0 connection to a computer for tagging with artist and song information.

The first model is the entry level TraxCatcher Classic. Future models, which will range in price from $99.99 to $499.99, will include features such as HD radio, digital inputs and outputs, USB connectivity, MP3 docking capabilities, clock-radio functionality and satellite radio receiver integration.

No Price Hikes: Dish guarantees your cable price for 2 years
Man watching NFL on Dish.

Inflation. Statistically, it is probably one of your top 10 complaints about daily life right now. What was $3 is $6, was $16 now is $22 and such forth. And, it seems every day we hear of reasonably priced entertainment packages jumping up in price by dollars and dollars that we don't want to spend. Right now, however, you can get Dish — you might know them as 'Dish Network', they've been around for quite some time — and lock in today's prices for two years. So, while your friends are paying 2026 prices you'll still be in 2024. Tap the button below to see if Dish is right for you and continue reading to see our take.

Why you should try Dish
With Dish, you can get hundreds of channels and thousands of on demand titles at your fingertips for around $100, depending on what package you get. For example, the "smallest" package includes 190 channels, includes popular all-day background watches like ESPN and the Disney Channel, gives you more than 28,000 titles you can watch at any time, and costs just $85 a month. You can reduce that further to $73 by removing local channels. Opt in for the Netflix Standard package (offered by Dish) for $15 a month instead — we recommend this swap if you have an antenna for local TV — and get a full entertainment package for ~$88 per month. The most expensive plan, which has over 290 channels and 36,000 on demand titles is only $30 more per month, also locked in for two years.
