For those who can't carry a tune, IVL Technologies Ltd.'s On-Key Karaoke System may be the answer. The system includes a wireless microphone that wraps around the ear and turns even a monotone voice into one that's in tune. The device also has a video camera that puts an image of the singer on the television. (CES Press Release)
The system is priced at $199 and comes with 100 songs. Additional songs are available on the firm's Web site (OnKeySongs) for 99 cents per tune. The device will be available this spring.
Gift of gab
Have you ever been left powerless with a dead cell phone? Charge 2 Go offers a lightweight, reusable portable charger that runs on one AA battery or a rechargeable battery. (Press Release)
Once it's plugged in to the phone, users get instant power -- up to three extra hours of talk time. The product, which won the show's Best of Innovations honor in the portable power category, sells for about $20. Now you'll never stop yammering."
