We saw a lot of these features go by in fast-forward when that Honeycomb video leaked the other day, and you could get a sense of Android 3.0 through the screenshots there. But if you really want to know what it’s like, you’d better take a gander at this series of videos T-Mobile has put out. They’ve been around for a while but we thought we’d just put them in one place for your convenience.

I’ll let them speak for themselves. No sense duplicating their content with a tedious explanation of each one.

Best In Show: The Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup Minis

It’s not every electronics show that big news comes out..in fact most of it is unrelated to the field. However, this year we were bown away by news from Hershey’s, those same people that do Hershey’s bars. After extensive research, Hershey’s found that less people are able to fit their Peanut Butter cups in their mouths. The only logical solution was…

Video: Hands-On With The RED Scarlet

I just wrapped up a short interview with Ted Schilowitz from RED, in which he told us (and all our live stream viewers) all about the new RED Scarlet digital cinema camera. I got to hold the thing and revel in its 3K glory; and while RED devices are notoriously never “final,” this felt about as final as it gets.

I don’t want to repeat what’s already out there regarding the resolution, accessories, dates, and so on, which are all googleable (and some not final), so I’ll stick to general impressions and you can watch the video as soon as it’s live for specifics. In the meantime, here are a couple new pics to tide you over.

Hands-on With the Orbitix Sphero

We’ve been excited about the Orbitix Sphero for a while now and we just got a little time to roll this odd little ball around CES. It’s quite cute and the iPhone UI is amazing. Check out our take, below.

Finally Official: Ford Focus Electric Vehicle

We’ve been hearing about this for a while, and now it’s official. Ford’s first EV to take on the competition from Chevrolet and Nissan will be fully electric, unlike the range-extended Volt. So what we’re looking at here is a normal Ford Focus that is electric, unlike other manufacturers who have outted cars that are specifically electric. Ford’s plan is to offer choices.

What is going on here? We don’t know. I don’t know why they made this poor man dress up like this nor do we know what he’s trying to sell. As a marketing exercise, I suspect they’ve failed. Or they haven’t, considering that you watched the video.

Check our more CES WTF here.

We saw the Surface V2 (as they’re calling it) soft-launched at the press day before CES, then demonstrated briefly by Ballmer in his keynote, and at last given official status with pictures and all the next morning. And then we got the the chance to try it out in person at the Microsoft booth. We’ve got video, some hands-on pictures, and our first impressions of the device.
