Murata isn't in the business of making electronics. Rather, they're one of the companies that make all the stuff that makes electronics possible. To that end, they've come up with some cool concepts to demonstrate what they've been working on lately, like this solar-powered flexible remote control.

We swung by Sony's booth and got a look at two encased concepts that offer a glimpse of what's in store for the future of mobile computing. Needless to say, they're freakin' awesome.

Last year Razer wowed CES goes with its 7-inch Intel Atom-powered Switchblade gaming PC that never made it out of the prototype phase. This year it's Project Fiona, a gaming tablet that runs full PC games. Is the breakfast tray-looking slab the ultimate in portable gaming tech? Our hands-on is just a click away.

MakerBot's Thing-O-Matic 3D printer is totally worth it. We already established that. How can the company improve on its homemade toy-printing potential? By making it bigger and more powerful. That and giving it a cool name like "The Replicator."
