Didn't see hardly any information about environment or power consumption, Only new features. It seems to me that power onsumption, toxic materials, recycling and environment are still not taken serious.Found a few low energy product introductions. Most of them not very accurate about energy: 40% less than something else (that is not defined). Ok all those electronica giants have signed the Climate Savers agreement, but we don't see any progress. Google did some research and found out that we are spoiling 50 percent of energy.http://www.stichtingmilieunet.nl/andersbekekenblog/?p=64Look at Greenpeace's Guide to Greener Electronics and the conclusion is simple: there is a lot of work to do.http://www.stichtingmilieunet.nl/andersbekekenblog/?p=3066Consumers, bloggers, you and i, and others should ask more information about energy consumption and heat up the pressure on manufacturers that will help to speed up developments and innovations.

Look at Greenpeace’s Guide to Greener Electronics and the conclusion is simple: there is a lot of work to do.
