Four hot Gadgets of 2008
* Wii Balance Board: Wii Fit is a video game developed by Nintendo for the Wii console. It uses the pressure-sensitive Wii Balance Board. The board is used for an extensive array of fun and dynamic activities, including aerobics, yoga, muscle stretches and games. Many of these activities focus towards providing a “core” workout, a popular exercise method that emphasizes slower, controlled motions. Family members will have fun staying active and talking about and comparing their results and progress on a new channel on the Wii Menu.

* Cell phones with Google Android: Google announced it’s finishing up a mobile-software package that will include an operating system and applications and cost absolutely nothing. But will not be a “Google phone” because Google only will provide the software. The phones will be made by companies like HTC, Motorola or Qualcomm. They will be launched at the middle of 2008.
* iPhone 3G: AT&T CEO Randall Stephenson confirmed a 3G capable iPhone will be launched in 2008. This will be a great step for this device because, so far, it is enough good when you need to use it as a pretty device, media player or Internet browser… but maybe it’s not the best cell phone. However, with 3G, iPhone could be a hit again.
* Penryn: We won’t have to wait much longer (only until January) to meet the new Intel processors: the next version of Core Duo with Penryn (codename) core. These new processors are able to run at 3 GHz and they have a FSB (Front Side Bus) at 1333 MHz. So far, the new desktop versions are called Wolfdale (dual-core) and Yorkfield (quad-core). They will have Penryn core, SSE4 instructions, and important improvements for video encoding.
