Audio at CES: not bad for a 'dead' category
Article Abstract:
Audio products, long considered to be a dead category, showed a lot of promise at the International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Jan 2000. Sony's SACD technology received a boost from rivals Sharp and Pioneer when they announced the impending release of products with the same high definition audio system in late 2000. Philips, together with subsidiary Marantz, failed to release their SACD players at the CES while Toshiba and Panasonic featured products supporting the DVD-Audio format.

Panasonic in on digital for '98
Article Abstract:
Panasonic, a consumer electronics manufacturer in the US which is owned by Matsushita Electric, developed a three-level digital television scheme for 1998 as part of its focus on digital-based products. Panasonic intends to release every first-generation digital television set as a two-component package. The IEEE 1394 interface, also known as proprietary technology, is the foundation for the connection between a set-top box and other electronic gadgets. However, Panasonic technicians chose not to install digital tuners into the digital television sets.
