Harman has joined several other companies in jumping the CES gun, announcing five new products it’s bringing to the show. First up is the JBL Charge, a hardy Bluetooth speaker which promises an impressive 12 hours of tunes on a single charge. If you are willing to sacrifice some of that play time, you can siphon power from the internal battery to other kit via the speaker’s USB port. Expected to start shipping in Q1 2013, you should be able to pick one up for around $ 149. Joining JBL’s OnBeat range are the Mini and Rumble speaker docks, which are both compatible with Apple’s Lightning connector. The Mini is a fairly standard dock which will play and charge for up five hours on battery power, and should be available this coming March for around $ 149. The Rumble, however, is a little more equipped, with both Lightning and Bluetooth streaming options, as well as a 4.5-inch, “down-firing subwoofer” for bass junkies. That extra muscle is reflected in the price, though, which is likely to be $ 399 when it hits stores next spring.

A couple of new Kardon-branded A/V receivers from Harman are also coming along to CES — the AVR 2700 and 3700. Both have multi-zone functionality, are stacked with wireless features including internet radio, AirPlay and DLNA connectivity, and can be controlled using iOS and Android apps. The AVR 2700 has eight HDMI ports and 4K video scaling for when you get round to buying that UHDTV, as well as 7.1-channel audio (at 100 watts per channel). The AVR 3700 adds WiFi connectivity, and has 7.2 channels (at 125 watts per channel) for adding a second woofer to your setup. When they become available to purchase in Q1 2013, expect wallet damage to the tune of $ 799 for the 2700, or $ 999 for the 3700. You can get a closer look at all the Harman products in the press shots below (complete with unnecessary reflection), and if you’re into PRs, there are a whole bunch awaiting you after the break.

In the latest episode of the Apple vs Samsung legal drama that’s been playing out in the U.S. district court of  Northern California, the pair met again at an appeal hearing on Thursday to argue their respective corners. Judge Lucy Koh is reviewing the jury’s $ 1.05 billion verdict against Samsung.

Apple is hoping for a ban on the sale of Samsung devices the jury deemed infringe its patents when they returned their verdict back in August, while Samsung wants to reduce the damages award against it — or trigger a new trial.

The judge made a plea for “global peace” between the warring gadget makers — who are also doing battle in other courtrooms around the world. “If there is any way this court can facilitate some sort of resolution, I’d like to do that,” the FT quotes Koh as saying. “I think it would be good for consumers and good for the industry.”

Apple recently settled its remaining legal disputes with another mobile maker, HTC — by agreeing a licensing deal — an outcome Koh is likely hoping could be used to end the Apple vs Samsung batte.

According to the BBC, Samsung’s arguments on Thursday focused on calling into question the jury’s calculations when it determined the amount of damages. To counter this argument, Apple urged the Judge not to probe the jury’s reasoning on a device-by-device basis — however Koh did not appear to be swayed by Apple’s argument.  ”I don’t see how you can look at the aggregate verdict without looking at the pieces put together to make that verdict,” she is quoted as saying. ”If there is a basis to uphold the damages award, by the record, then I am going to uphold it. But I think it is appropriate to do analysis by product.”

Samsung also asked for the verdict to be entirely dismissed and for a new trial to be held. One of its main arguments reportedly centers on the impartiality of jury foreman, Velvin Hogan. However Reuters quotes Christopher Carani, a partner at Chicago-based intellectual property law firm McAndrews, Held & Malloy, Ltd, commenting that Samsung’s juror misconduct argument is “unlikely to have much traction”.

Meanwhile, Apple asked for an increase in the damages award — and for a permanent ban on the U.S. sales of eight Samsung smartphones the jury deemed infringe its patents. The FT reports that Apple’s legal representative dubbed the billion-dollar award a “slap on the wrist”, and argued the court needs to “establish a line” that would “change behaviours” — an argument we’ve heard Apple make before.

According to Reuters, Apple is attempting to add more than $ 500 million to the $ 1 billion damages award — on the grounds that the jury found Samsung willfully infringed its patents.

Thursday’s court hearing concluded with Judge Koh saying she would rule at a later date.

One area where Moore’s law could be seen alive and well seems to be the developer and small task pc globe. Whether it’s the common Raspberry Pi, Intel’s NUC, or any sort of number of similar items. There’s one more name to include to this list, and that’s the ODROID-U from Hardkernel. The boards are a little more expensive than Raspberry Pi’s remarkably economical Style A and Model B, however you are getting some bang for that buck. The $ 69 ODROID-U includes a 1.4 GHz quad-core Exynos 4412 processor (as discovered in the Galaxy S III and Take note II, 1GB of RAM, quad-core Mali 400 graphics, micro-HDMI, a brace of USB harbors, an earphone jack and Ethernet. If you want a little more oomph, for an additional $ 20 you can have the RAM doubled, and a 1.7 GHz core with the ODROID-U2 model. There’s one stat you might notice missing which is flash memory. There’s no onboard storage space, so you’ll need to bring your very own memory for the inbuilt microSD slot. As the ODROID name recommends, the boards could run Android, along with a selection of Linux tastes. Noise excellent? In a reverse of exactly what you could anticipate, the ODROID-U2 will be readily available first, beginning December 21st, with the less expensive board pencilled in to arrive on January 16th.
