Cisco Unveils the FlipShare TV

Cisco unveils another potential gadget that should allow you to save movies via USB device. The FlipShare TV is a three-piece package which makes use of a software to transfer movies via USB from a computer for possibly playing them on a standard TV set. Thought that last part wasn’t mentioned, the pictures below perhaps best explain the purpose for these interface buttons and jacks. No word on pricing and availability yet but at least you know it is coming after getting FCC approval.

Cisco Introduces Wireless Home Audio Solutions

The thing about setting up your home for better audio quality would be to address the cables and wires where you strategically place components and speakers.

Similar to networking solutions prior to the Wi-Fi networking solutions, home entertainment setups can now enjoy better placement with lesser wiring exposure through Cisco’s new wireless home audio over an existing 802.11 Wi-Fi network.

An added feature is that it also offers an iPod dock that allows access to the iPod from any of the base stations on network.

The Linksys by Cisco Wireless Home Audio system will consist of half a dozen components, ranging from a miniature boom box called the Conductor–with integrated speakers, a CD player, and an LCD touch screen–to a handheld Controller that has a touch screen for managing all the other system components.
