From the mind that brought you ElectroPlankton comes the Tenori-on (finally!): an 8 x 8-inch magnesium square brimming with 256 tiny, pressable, blinking LEDs and even gestural controls that make it easy to sequence electronic music on the fly. It's a spectacular tool for creating loops and making those sitting next to you on the train jealous. But will it keep serious musicians busy long enough to make it worth the $1200 Yamaha wants for it? Read on for a full report of our week-long visit with the little alien box.

MotoSAT thinks they've got solutions for your weak satellite signal. We think they've got the perfect thing to space out to after a long week of CES. Kick back, relax, have a brewski, watch some satellites bounce around.

This CES: all about the HDTVs. On this CES 2008 episode of the podcast we're talking TV with Engadget HD editor Ben Drawbaugh -- as well as a bit about Lenovo's grand new consumer computing brand plan. We also caught up with our pal Charles over at Virgin America, who talked with us a bit about the airlines nascent plans to get you online during your next flight.

Sure, the Xbox 360 Elite was finally announced, but we've got a fair bit of interesting cellphone news this week, too. Check out Samsung's UpStage, finally launched; or the long-awaited Helio Ocean dual-slider QWERTY featurephone -- not bad eh? And then HTC had a whole slew of gear, too, from their first UMPC to the Advantage's US launch. We won't only be talking about cellphones this week, but if you're not down with mobile gadgets then you might want to snag our enhanced RSS and skip some chapters, because we've got some CTIA stuff to catch up on.

Unfortunately this last week didn't exactly bring a tidal wave of interesting new gadget news, but the launch of the Apple TV and the news of the next Xbox 360 will just have to suffice. Peter also recounts his experience getting a BlackBerry massage in New York -- not to be missed!

Lots of new gadgets these past couple of weeks, between PMA and CeBIT, but we're here to try and make some sense of it for you. Granted, we're still trying to make some more sense of Slacker, the new WiFi / satellite / internet radio device and service, but there were some other things that feel right at home here: namely some UMPCs like Sammy's Q1 Ultra, and Vulcan's Flipstart, as well as Dell's forthcoming CableCARD-equipped XPS desktop. Step right up, Engadget Podcast coming at you.

Kind of a slowish week for gdget news, but there's always something to talk about. This week we're taking on the BitTorrent Entertainment Network, Steven Johnson -- Apple rumor-starter (of all people), Sony's big launches, and Verizon's big launch of V CAST Mobile TV. Did we mention it's also our third birthday this weekend? Because it is, and we know you want to pick up some of our prizes. Thanks for three years supporting what we're doing up in this piece, and thanks for listening to Engadget Podcast 102!

We're back to our regular newsy podcast for 101, and is there ever news to discuss. Dreams may come true for trepidatious would-be satellite radio customers with XM and Sirius announcing their intentions to merge into one mega broadcaster; in the same vein, Apple and Cisco finally made nice over the iPhone name, which will be used by both companies' products. Canon loosed a slew of interesting new cameras, Samsung hit us with an interesting new kind of monitor that rocks USB over regular video ports, and Helio even popped up with a new device in the FCC. All around a good week for news, and a good week to check out the Engadget podcast, now with over one hundred episodes!

But most of all we'd like to thank you, for your continued support and listenership of the show! So enjoy ep 100, and we'll see you later this week for number 101.
