With the Consumer Electronics Show and Macworld taking place over the last two weeks, our reviewers got out of the testing lab and into the hustle and bustle of conference show floors. Nevertheless, they've managed to write some full reviews of newly released products, and they found more than a few they liked. Here's our roundup of the products CNET reviewers liked best so far this month.
1. HP Pavilion HDX (Intel Core 2 Duo T9300)
Editors' rating: 8.2
The good: Massive 20-inch display now offers 1080p resolution; latest Core 2 Duo Penryn CPU and Nvidia GeForce 8800 video card; pop-out remote control provides 10-foot interface; choice of Blu-ray or HD DVD drives; improved battery life.
The bad: New CPU doesn't add much performance boost; no Blu-ray/HD DVD combo drive.
The bottom line: The updated HP Pavilion HDX is still a glorious example of conspicuous consumption and adds a few improvements, notably the latest in laptop graphics and a screen that can display full 1080p.
