:00:46. > :00:50.Europe's largest technology expo. This is IFA 2011 in the heart of
:00:50. > :00:56.Berlin and this is an absolutely massive show. To give you an idea,
:00:56. > :01:02.I am standing in a halt for 20 of 28. Lots to do. Better get on with
:01:02. > :01:06.it. -- in a hall. We will take out the latest TV screens, camera kits
:01:06. > :01:10.and the most exciting of tablet tech. And we will bring you the
:01:10. > :01:20.other big stories from around the world and a guide to the future of
:01:20. > :01:25.the world in Webscape. We start with the biggest screen in
:01:25. > :01:35.the house. The television. This year, the hype over 3D is giving
:01:35. > :01:35.
:01:35. > :01:40.weight to televisions that can do more to just show movies or TV.
:01:40. > :01:45.From high-definition to slim the panel. Wide screen and a wider
:01:45. > :01:51.screen. Two 3D. Television makers have always sold sets based on
:01:51. > :01:56.looks and picture quality. But now, it is switching to the multitude of
:01:56. > :01:59.content and TV that can be delivered to your home via the
:02:00. > :02:05.internet. More of the biggest swings we buy can be connected to a
:02:05. > :02:12.rota, giving access to movies on demand, Internet-based TV channels
:02:12. > :02:19.and streaming services like U2. One of the biggest players, Samsung,
:02:19. > :02:24.says three out of four sets can be hooked up to the internet. --
:02:25. > :02:29.YouTube. They offer apps and games and no longer need add-on boxes or
:02:29. > :02:33.consols. Smartphones and tablets can be used from the sofa to
:02:33. > :02:40.navigate Facebook or Twitter. But the limited number of apps this
:02:40. > :02:44.Panasonic TV has, 100, means a lot less choice than on a tablet or
:02:44. > :02:50.smartphone. Sharp, LG and Philips have announced a common platform to
:02:50. > :02:54.encourage more titles. So one version becomes all of their smart
:02:54. > :02:59.TV is. But owners will need good broadband connections to start with.
:02:59. > :03:03.Panasonic says just one-quarter of its smart TV's have actually been
:03:03. > :03:07.connected. Samsung believes in Europe, it is around half.
:03:07. > :03:14.Explaining the benefits and intricate menus to customers new to
:03:14. > :03:19.the idea may also been hampering uptake. With everybody offering
:03:19. > :03:22.smart televisions, the race is on to stand out from the crowd.
:03:23. > :03:27.Turkish outfit Vestel raised the temperature, unveiling a prototype
:03:27. > :03:32.television with peer-to-peer file sharing software. That was built in
:03:32. > :03:37.by BitTorrent. Just add a hard drive to store your movie downloads.
:03:37. > :03:43.And Samsung showed off its YouTube 3D app which allows said owners to
:03:43. > :03:48.view the tiny but growing amount of 3D content on the site. 3D itself
:03:48. > :03:52.has struggled to capture the public's imagination as quickly as
:03:52. > :03:56.manufacturers hoped. This Dizziness Free selling-point on the latest
:03:56. > :04:03.Samsung models reveals one existing problem. And the need to wear
:04:03. > :04:08.glasses has bothered many. But not from November. Toshiba says goodbye
:04:09. > :04:15.to the specs with the glasses 33 D screen. Instead, a layer of
:04:15. > :04:19.microscopic liquid lenses on the screen allows different perspective
:04:19. > :04:24.to descend to each eye, giving the illusion of 3D. Face tracking
:04:24. > :04:28.technology determines how far you are from the screen so the' lenses
:04:28. > :04:34.can be adjusted to provide 45 overlapping sweet spot where the
:04:34. > :04:37.effect works best. From two metres away I could move my head at 30
:04:37. > :04:42.cent of readers and still avoid the shadowing effect. While it is not
:04:42. > :04:48.as clean and effective as active shutter glasses, the picture has
:04:48. > :04:55.good depth, providing a more need 3D effect that may suit some tastes.
:04:55. > :05:01.The future of 3D TV is classes less. 3D, nobody wants to wear glasses.
:05:01. > :05:06.That is why contact lenses are so popular in the market. TD must be
:05:06. > :05:12.grasses less in order to attract more people to watch three deep. --
:05:12. > :05:18.TV. By at glasses Free is not without cost. The 3D filter reduces
:05:18. > :05:25.the screen's effective resolution to a 720 H D image. The viewing
:05:25. > :05:29.angle is reduced. And it costs 8,000 euros. Panasonic thinks it is
:05:29. > :05:33.a crazy idea and is sticking with glasses which deliver a clearer
:05:33. > :05:37.picture with just one drawback - you have to wear them. But to make
:05:38. > :05:41.things easier, it has teamed up with such Sharp, Samsung, Philips
:05:41. > :05:45.and Sony to create a single standard so the one sport next year
:05:45. > :05:52.may work well with your friend's 3D said.
:05:52. > :05:57.-- the ones you buy next year. And IFA may look at more in the
:05:57. > :06:03.next year. If you are sold on the glasses option, why not get rid of
:06:03. > :06:12.the television altogether? For 900 euros, Sony will pop these new all
:06:12. > :06:17.in 13 D specs on your face. That is a look. -- all in one 3D specs.
:06:17. > :06:23.A with me today is Luke Westaway, the senior writer for the highly
:06:23. > :06:26.respected site CNET. Welcome. Let's talk about the TV technology we
:06:26. > :06:32.have seen. Connected TV's, it has to be said the use their experience
:06:32. > :06:36.for a TV online has been pretty poor? Yes. It is not there yet. We
:06:36. > :06:41.are better off putting our laptops into the TV. That is what TV
:06:41. > :06:45.manufacturers are trying to discourage. They want their own
:06:45. > :06:50.sites. If you are scrolling through an internet TV, it feels sluggish
:06:50. > :06:54.still. It is annoying. There are no keyboards so you have to input text
:06:54. > :06:58.very slowly. So just really making what they have more compelling.
:06:58. > :07:03.There is not a lot of content apart from YouTube which you can get as
:07:03. > :07:06.the use of. And there are encouraging signs, that the 3D
:07:06. > :07:11.intercity is getting its act together. Standardised glasses and
:07:11. > :07:15.the glasses Free TV. It is interesting. It works reasonably
:07:15. > :07:20.well. It is going on sale. But you have to ask, if we have not reached
:07:20. > :07:26.a consensus on whether we want glasses or no glasses, we are not
:07:26. > :07:33.really their debt for 3D. Thank you. Stay there for a few more minutes.
:07:33. > :07:38.Plenty more from it but still to come. -- from IFA.
:07:38. > :07:43.It is all to ageing at Yahoo. Just two years after her appointment,
:07:43. > :07:48.CEO Carol Bartz has been given the axed after her a star slashing do

:07:56. > :08:03.to be the front runner. Just a few months before the launch of the
:08:03. > :08:09.Triple X Domain, thousands of celebrities have registered to make
:08:09. > :08:14.sure they are not related with the online red light district. Agencies
:08:14. > :08:18.say 1,500 domains have already been registered by prototypes. And
:08:18. > :08:23.finally after years in the labs, invisibility cloaks are finally
:08:23. > :08:28.here. Sort of. BAE Systems is outfitting tanks, toppers and

:08:48. > :08:54.-- technology. So we have heard about the latest
:08:54. > :08:58.TV technology here at IFA which includes a lot of 3D. There is also
:08:58. > :09:07.this problem of not much 3D content around. The latest camera
:09:07. > :09:12.technology may change that. Action. Plenty of interest at IFA
:09:12. > :09:16.this year in shooting material in 3D. What is that? You are not
:09:16. > :09:21.seeing me in 3D, you still need the specs with the system. That is
:09:21. > :09:24.better. You have a darker picture, no difference in quality. Are you
:09:24. > :09:29.feeling underwhelmed by the experience? And are you starting to
:09:29. > :09:37.feel not just as well? OK, so 3D is working properly. You have lost it
:09:37. > :09:40.again? The numpty forgot to charge the specs. OK, you may have guessed
:09:40. > :09:44.that I do not buy into the multi- dimensional bars that the Big beat
:09:44. > :09:49.-- big hitters of TB hardware are determined to whip up. But still
:09:49. > :09:55.producing our own material and at last, give us something to put on
:09:55. > :10:00.our new sets. So, prepare to be dazzled by twin-lens compacts,

:10:52. > :10:55.And ridiculous aspects. Or put yourself in the picture with a
:10:55. > :10:59.quirky Magic Frame. Thankfully, there are no illusions when it

:11:19. > :11:23.stabilisation, getting wobble freeze that is easier than ever.
:11:23. > :11:27.These days, there is so much way for can -- so many ways for cameras
:11:27. > :11:31.to make a splash that the industry is allowing that decade-long
:11:31. > :11:39.megapixels Marketing Board to take a back seat. We are now being told
:11:39. > :11:44.that less is more. Confused? To keep up. Few were megapixels are
:11:44. > :11:49.better because the percentage is the same. Each pixel is bigger and
:11:49. > :11:53.could use more light. So the low light quality or the quality of
:11:53. > :11:59.normal conditions is much better. You have less noise or less grain
:11:59. > :12:05.in the image. That is what the user wants. With stills camera shooting
:12:05. > :12:14.video, the industry is shifting its seductive Megs are picked --
:12:14. > :12:18.megapixels mania into frontiers. Chances are, you would be hard-
:12:18. > :12:22.pressed to tell the difference between these two models. Still,
:12:22. > :12:26.there are some choices we no longer have to make it all. This model is

:12:50. > :12:58.video. Do we need to buy video cameras any more? It is safe to say
:12:58. > :13:04.that if you are a casual videotape and just want to take some videos,
:13:04. > :13:08.something quite small, that will still at work fine. But if you are
:13:08. > :13:13.after a good quality video, a camcorder is still the way to go.
:13:13. > :13:19.The ergonomics of the device... It is more comfortable to shoot video
:13:19. > :13:26.with a proper camcorder. The same question could be asked of skills
:13:26. > :13:32.cameras with respect to smartphones. Asked deals cameras in danger of
:13:32. > :13:38.becoming extinct? Definitely. Most able take pictures on their
:13:38. > :13:45.smartphones and they are very good. They offer the ability to share the
:13:45. > :13:49.photo online. We are seeing more and more digital cameras having
:13:49. > :13:53.that kind of feature put-in. We're seeing some wi-fi cameras, things
:13:53. > :13:59.like that. The danger is that smartphones will take over the
:13:59. > :14:05.still camera market. Thank you. Stay there. Accent. Moving on first.
:14:05. > :14:12.For the last couple of years. Every -- everybody has been jumping on
:14:13. > :14:21.the tablet bandwagon. But are they late? We have been continuing to
:14:21. > :14:27.take the tabke the tabas the scene of a slew of tablet launches here,
:14:27. > :14:32.devices which share Android operating system, most using the
:14:32. > :14:36.latest version called honeycomb. Because these machines or use the
:14:36. > :14:42.same operating system they have uniform touch-screen controls and
:14:42. > :14:45.can download apps from the Google market. Most of the Android devices
:14:45. > :14:49.on the market are performing much the same way. This creates a really
:14:49. > :14:55.big problem for a hardware designers and engineers. How did
:14:55. > :15:00.they make a different machine? How do they prevented from becoming a
:15:00. > :15:07.need to tablet? In the case of Sony's engineers, they're trying to
:15:07. > :15:13.make their latest stand out with the help of making sure. The Sony P
:15:13. > :15:18.features a folding case with two 5.5 touch screens which should make
:15:18. > :15:24.it more portable. Both displays can become one large screen with a
:15:24. > :15:28.great big black bar through the middle of it, that is. It has four
:15:28. > :15:33.gigabytes of one store -- online storage. It can also store extra
:15:33. > :15:39.data. But the folding case design could prove to be a love it or hate
:15:39. > :15:49.it feature which makes for breaks it. Its price could also provide
:15:49. > :15:54.problems. It is �479. It could be a perilous proposition for Sony. Sony
:15:54. > :15:58.also have a more traditional tabloid offering with the S Talbot.
:15:58. > :16:05.This is shaped like a folding book or magazine magazine more
:16:05. > :16:12.comfortable to hold. It has a 4.9 inch display. It is available in
:16:12. > :16:16.three cheat and wi-fi versions. Both are PlayStation set-aside --
:16:16. > :16:20.says a five say you should have access to old PlayStation games,
:16:20. > :16:25.games of such antiquity they would probably have their own exhibit in
:16:25. > :16:29.the British Museum. Sony is not the only outfit with a new Android tap.
:16:29. > :16:35.Samsung has already started to launch its second generation of
:16:35. > :16:41.Android tablets. This latest addition, the 7.7 inch galaxy tab
:16:41. > :16:49.follows a familiar theme. Familiar because for some, this will be the
:16:49. > :16:55.closest they get to a galaxy tad 7.7 unless -- at least before a
:16:56. > :17:01.patent spat is sold. They argue that they have copied at the look
:17:01. > :17:06.and feel of iPhone and iPad. They have been granted a court order
:17:06. > :17:09.which prevents the sale. It chose to remove the 7.7 from the show
:17:09. > :17:13.floor. If you have managed to snatch a look at it, you'll
:17:13. > :17:22.discover it is a thin and like honeycomb defies. It has front and
:17:22. > :17:29.rear cameras and a bright and alert -- --reen. It looks a little
:17:29. > :17:33.difference. We I get to hear a word on pricing. -- we are yet to hear.
:17:33. > :17:40.Samsung did launch one device which is unlikely to encounter the same
:17:40. > :17:45.patent problems as its relatives. The hybrid phone and tablet. But
:17:45. > :17:50.t that is smaller than most others
:17:50. > :17:56.and a smartphone that is larger than most other phones? It
:17:56. > :18:02.seemingly normal at first. It is Android power -- his Android power
:18:02. > :18:05.which can create impromptu portrait. It is the fact that the note is
:18:05. > :18:14.being marketed as a device which sits between a smartphone and a
:18:14. > :18:17.larger Tabard. It will hit eight undiscovered section of the market.
:18:17. > :18:25.And now thatd now thatad his from Toshiba. It has been on the died.
:18:25. > :18:34.Probably the thinnest. It deserves millimetres thick 10 inch screen
:18:34. > :18:39.new device. It is called the 8,200. It has micro US bees and micro
:18:39. > :18:42.ports. Its last two attempts at tablets were not successful so this
:18:42. > :18:52.one has a pretty big mountain to climb in order to draw attention to
:18:52. > :18:56.itself. Let's pick up on the idea of price. Apple traditionally have
:18:56. > :18:59.more expensive products than anyone else. Why on earth are all the
:18:59. > :19:05.other tablets the same price as the iPad Bestinvest when the iPad
:19:05. > :19:11.launched were -- the iPad was a little bit cheaper when it first
:19:11. > :19:16.launched. I think -- Android tablets need to be cheaper. If you
:19:16. > :19:21.are looking at buying and a Android tablet or an iPad it is more
:19:21. > :19:24.sensitive to -- sensible to buy an iPad because other people have one.
:19:24. > :19:32.If the Android was a lot cheaper there would be more reason to buy
:19:32. > :19:37.one. It is a two-horse race for the Tablet operating system. Should
:19:37. > :19:41.windows even bother trying to get back into tablet? Yes, it should
:19:41. > :19:48.bother because it is always fun to have more staff to choose from. The
:19:49. > :19:56.real challenge they have is apps. Apple's ils is more established.
:19:56. > :20:00.They have more available. That is what makes a tablet great. Thank
