 Starhub has a big booth this year, offering cool promotions for those who are taking up their MaxOnline and Cable TV packages such as free 29-inch TVs and HP printers.

 High Definition channels are finally here in Singapore! Starhub will be offering HD programs at starting from $15.75/month and if you haven't seen it yet, this is the new set top box that supports decoding up to 1080i and will be used for both HD and SD channels.

 Starhub is also offering its 'Smart TV' DVR device that can be used to record your favorite shows. It comes with dual tuners and can record a second channel for up to 60 hours.

 The TiBO A1000 is a navigational system with voice commands that tells you where to turn and other directions while you are driving. It offers maps of Singapore, Malaysia and Bangkok. This unit is available for S$799 only at the IT show.

 This 14.1-inch Toshiba Satellite was found to be going for only S$1,599. It sports an Intel Core 2 Duo T2250 processor, 1GB DDR2 RAM, 80GB SATA HDD, and two years international warranty.

 These notebook backpacks from Toshiba look pretty good. They are available at the IT Show 2007 and are going for a special price.

 The incumbent Qosmio F30-P540 and its powerful Harmon Kardon speakers are once again found at Toshiba's booth (8143). This time though, it has been upgraded with an Intel Core 2 Duo T2400 processor and costs S$2,799.

 Viewsonic is another to jump onto the iPod bandwagon with this 22-inch widescreen LCD with an integrated iPod dock. In case you're wondering, you can't play back your iPod movies through the dock interface, just music files. Along with a free trolley and DVI cable, this monitor will set you back $599.

 For those who still prefer the 4:3 aspect ratio, the 19-inch VG930M is a decent 8ms LCD display with built-in speakers and adjustable height. You'll also get a free 1GB thumb drive among other gifts.
