Skype TV

I never thought that Skype would be for calls only and then along come Novac and their Skype TV. It uses the capabilities of video calling to transmit TV signalls to a caller… thus, allowing you to watch TV over Skype. Genious!

The software will be coming out soon priced at $85.99. It works by plugging in a USB TV tuner in to your PC and then this allows you to connect it to Skype and broadcast TV all over the world. According to Novac you are also able to change channel from all over the world.

This has been heard of before (I must be slow because I missed it), but this is the first plug in and go system available. It will hit the shops on the 15th July.

Matsushita 103-inch Plasma

Matsushita have launched the almighty 103 inch Plasma screen capable of running at a nice 1080p resolution. This beast weighs a chunky 473 pounds which means you need a heck of a large empty wall and a very strong wall at that. It’s currently the worlds biggest plasma beating others off the mark by 1 inch. They expect they will make about 5000 a year and we are not sure yet on the price. I would estimate an easy 5 figure sum, maybe a 6 🙂
