CES 2006 Profile: Spotwave Wireless

By Digital Trends Staff January 17, 2006

Spotwave Wireless, a developer of indoor wireless coverage solutions, was displaying a new indoor wireless antenna at the 2006 Consumer Electronics Show designed to help mobile devices get better coverage. The Spotwave Zen is due out in the second quarter of this year for $399.

The Zen will support cell phones, PDAs and other mobile devices across the entire PCS band (1900MHz). It reportedly will dramatically improve indoor wireless reception for these devices in spaces up to 2,500 feet by grabbing nearby PCS signals and boosting them within its coverage area. Features include easy setup, software controlled coverage, automatic adjustment of signal levels as needed, compatibility with most wireless carrier networks and support for CDMA, GSM, EVDO and UMTS in North America.

CES 2024 sprawls out all over Las Vegas, filling not only the convention center, but also huge additional spaces and hundreds (possibly thousands) of hotel suites, all full of eager tech firms and entrepreneurs looking to show off their products and inventions.

It means the show is full of mainstream and not so mainstream gadgets. It’s the latter we’re interested in here as we take a look at some of the quirkier devices found at CES 2024.

I saw the future of folding phones at CES 2024

Samsung's "In&Out" folding phone concept at CES 2024.

CES 2024 has barely begun, and I've already had an exciting glimpse at the future of folding smartphones.

Samsung is at CES showcasing all sorts of display innovations — including a ridiculous 3D gaming monitor. But what I'm more interested in is Samsung's newest folding phone concept device. It's called the In&Out Flip, and it very well could be what future folding phones look like.

Is this the best cheap Android tablet of CES 2024?

Lenovo is adding a new Android tablet to its tablet portfolio, and this one is targeted at content consumption and classrooms. Dubbed the "Tab M11" and announced at CES 2024, the midrange tablet features an 11-inch screen with a Full HD resolution (1920 x 1200 pixels). Notably, Lenovo has put a 90Hz refresh rate screen on its budget tablet, which is a neat addition given its appeal as a reading and scribbling device.

The company is offering the Tab M11 in a trio of configurations, and once again, they play to the core use-case scenario for each buyer. The base variant combines 4GB of RAM with either 64GB or 128GB of onboard storage, which is not too shabby if you are predominantly into streaming videos.
