Plantronics

Right across from the HP exhibit was Plantronics' demo space filled with round tables full of headphones. I've used Plantronics headsets and have always been impressed with what they churn out. Showcased at CES this year were iPod-matching earbuds, Bluetooth ear-pieces and their newest brainchild: the Halo2 GameCon headset. Plantronics partnered with Microsoft to develop this Halo-specific design, and they were mighty proud of them. I also spied a slightly redesigned .audio90, which I reviewed last year.

Garmin

I've been checking out Garmin's handheld GPS units and secretly wishing they would send one to me for review. Their booth was filled to the rim with handhelds, palmtop and in car navigation units. I especially liked the pocket pc palmtops... just in case any Garmin reps are reading this. They also had their full line of eTrex handhelds, some of which have built in walkie-talkie functionality. Another interesting product that has come to the market lately was a personal training aid that not only records your location and distance traveled, it also keeps track of your pace times all via GPS.
