			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Consumer Electronics show kicked off yesterday in Los Angeles and with it comes a slew of product announements showcasing the latest in gadgetry. While loads of bloggers and journo&#8217;s clamouring to get the best and most inventive reviews first, here at The Processor we decided to root around and rummage for the top 5 crappy new gadgets.</p>
<p>So here you are, our top 5 shit-tech. Some serious, some not so, all up for discussion, feel free to post your own.</p>
<p><strong>1. Microsoft tablet</strong></p>
<p><img src="http://theprocessor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/ballmer1.jpg" alt="" title="Steve Ballmer HP Slate Computer" width="546" height="330" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-424" /></p>
<p>Boooring, what is soo friggin exciting about a tablet PC running Windows 7. Microsoft, stop it, you are just embarasing yourself. Why not try and make a cool new product that really differentiates itself from the rest of the market, instead of half assed e-readers.</p>
<p>The most interesting thing about this fail is how they have managed to look shit in comparison to a company that was not even there, and next to a product that has not been launched yet, the Apple iSlate!</p>

<p><strong>2. The Phubby (wrist-on)</strong></p>
<p><img src="http://theprocessor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/phubby1.jpg" alt="" title="Phubby phone holder" width="546" height="330" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-425" /></p>
<p>It&#8217;s a mobile phone holder for your&#8230; hand. And as an added feature, it also will make you  look like a total douche!</p>

<p><strong>3. 152-inch Plasma TV</strong></p>
<p><img src="http://theprocessor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/plasma1.jpg" alt="" title="Panasonic 152-inch Plasma TV" width="546" height="278" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-426" /></p>
<p>As the world&#8217;s leading consumer electronics show it&#8217;s good to see the number of affordable televisions on show, like this 152-inch plasma TV. Panasonic have not released any information on pricing, but early calculations predict Slovenia. Yes, that&#8217;s right, we assume it will cost you about as much as it would cost to buy a former Soviet state.</p>

<p><strong>4. Ford In Car Twitter</strong></p>
<p><img src="http://theprocessor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/ford1.jpg" alt="" title="Ford in car Tweeting" width="546" height="330" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-427" /></p>
<p>Really, you got something to twitter about while you are driving. Like, what, you&#8217;re driving. That is not interesting. This one goes in the file with internet fridge etc.</p>

<p><strong>5. Hannspree Polar Bear TV</strong></p>
<p><img src="http://theprocessor.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/polarBEar1.jpg" alt="" title="Hannspree Polar Bear TV" width="546" height="330" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-428" /></p>
<p>Ok, so this polar bear shaped TV is supposed to highlight the plight of polar bears in the face of global warming. Ooh the irony!</p>
