Philip’s new SoundSphere MCi900 and MCD900 definitely add some flair to the home stereo concept. Both systems have a pair of speakers, 100 watts of amplification and “free floating” tweeters outside of the enclosure.

The casings are molded from a single piece of aluminum, and each has an integrated CD player and USB socket. The former has a 160GB hard drive, support for internet radio and wireless streaming with networked PCs or Macs. Nothing on price yet, and we have no idea when we Americans may see it.

The new Philips / Funai combo P&F is promising good looks and green habits with its stylish Eco TV series. The 4000, 5000 and 7000 series climb to be exact. 2010 sees the introduction of Netflix streaming, internet radio and Blockbuster Video On Demand on some models and HDMI 1.4 jacks on the 7000 models.

For once we have some prices and release dates for these guys right from the get-go, which is a big plus. Hit up the link below for the full rundown. The prices aren’t bad at all and te wait isn’t very long.

I have never had a problem getting out of bed in the morning, my wife on the other hand is worse than my kids. For people who don’t wake up well, Philips has unveiled a new alarm clock called the Wake-up Light.

The clock has a traditional alarm built in and the iPod docking model can wake you to music from your playlist, FM radio, or different nature sounds. The big feature of the device is the light that simulates a sunrise.

Back in September we told you all about Philips’ Wireless HDTV Link. Well Philips has released it in the US. US buyers can look forward to superior high-definition TV picture quality of up to 1080p wirelessly. That should help free you from your tangled wire shackles.

The Philips Wireless HDTV Link will gladly help you replace cables hooked up to yur HD cable set-top box, satellite receiver, Blu-ray player etc. It ain’t cheap at $799 for the Wireless HDTV Link, but what’s it worth to you to connect up to four AV devices to your TV, and also have a few digital HDMI connections and component?

Joining the ranks of all of those other recently announced HD PMPs, is the Philips SA075. There isn’t much information about this guy right now, but rumor has it that it will come with an 800×480 touchscreen, and feature HDMI output.

It will support HD video playback, but we don’t know the exact definitions,720p or 1080p. That’s about all we know at the moment sadly, but we’ll keep on eye out on this one for you.

Philips just introduced its Wireless HDTV Link at IFA Berlin 2009. It’s another device to help us do away with messy wires, so your home doesn’t look like some tech bird nest constructed with AV wires. It’s an HDMI transmitter/receiver duo that lets you arrange a wide array of A/V components neatly, so that they work together within a 20 meter radius.

The base station has a few HDMI connections, a few component connections and transmits full 1080i and 1080p/30fps HD video. It will arrive in your home soon for €599.99.

Philips has two new phones coming soon. The K700(pictured) and the X501. The K700 sports a full touchscreen display and is part of the Xenium family. It also features a 3.2-megapixel camera. Our guess is that you can expect good battery like with other Xenium handsets.

The X501 is more of a mystery. We do know that it sports a 2-megapixel camera. No word on pricing or availability yet on either of these up and comers.

Philips has announced its expanded home theater lineup for 2009, with the HTS8160B Soundbar. The compact home theater setup includes a Blu-ray disc player with DVD and CD playback support, built-in speakers and a separate subwoofer.

The soundbar also supports Dolby True HD audio format and 7.1 channel surround sound. You’ll also get an iPod/iPhone dock and a touchscreen remote control. It will cost you around $1,500 and is currently available in Singapore. We don’t know if or when it will hit North America.

Philips Europe has just introduced their new 22-inch monitor in the form of the Philips LightFrame T monitor. This new widescreen monitor comes with an unusual and odd, “cool blue” frame that glows and promises to reduce eye strain.

Some other interesting features include a 12,000:1 contrast ratio, SmartImage technology to enhance contrast, color saturation and sharpness of images and videos, and TrueVision Technology for monitor adjusting and fine tuning.

Mobile phone battery life is one of the most important factors to consider when buying a phone. And Philips has one that will last a long tme with the Philips X550. This phone apparently has a battery that can last up to a month in stand-by. Some sacrifices had to be made obviously.

No 3G connectivity here and it relies only on GPRS and EDGE for data transfers. Some other features are: A QVGA display with 262k colors, Bluetooth, FM radio with RDS, 3.2MP autofocus camera, MicroSD card support and up to 8GB memory. No pricing info yet.

It seems counterproductive to be buying a portable DVD player, what with Blu-Ray and all of the other options available to you, but if you are eyeing a new DVD player, check this out. The most interesting feature of the DCP951/37 from Philips is the retractable iPod dock.

Its compatible with the iPod Touch, iPod Nano and the iPod Classic. The DCP951/37 will give you only a 640×220 resolution, but on the other hand it can play almost all standard video discs and also has an SD card slot. You’ll also get MP3 support, 2 x 3.5mm stereo headphone jacks and a built-in battery that will give you almost 3 hours of playback.

We’ve been following this one for you for awhile now. And why wouldn’t we? Philip’s 52 inch LCD has us drooling. Now we have some price info to drop on ya, along with a June release in the UK.

The 52-inch ultra wide Cinema display will cost you £3535/$5044. It’s slightly expensive in cost per viewing inch, but it does offer a true anamorphic widescreen aspect. Now all we have to do on this side of the pond is wait.

Philips has introduced it’s Net TV service that will target it’s high-end TV line (the Philips 8000 and 9000 range), and allow you to surf only ceratin selected sites from your living room. Sadly, not everything from the Internet can be accessed. You’ll be restricted to a pre-determined set of sites like YouTube, TomTom, eBay, Funspot and MyAlbum among others.

These sites have been specially modified for the Philips Net TV service so that your eyes will benefit from large text. While you can view other sites, these have yet to be optimized.

The Cinema 21:9 is claiming to be the planet’s first cinema-proportioned LCD TV, so this should be the ultimate LCD to watch movies on. The 56 inch diagonal will also feature Ambilight technology around the borders. I know what you’re thinking. This isn’t real. Some of you will claim photoshop. We were skeptical too, but it turns out that it’s the real deal.

According to Philips, the panel will be shipping this Spring in Germany, Belgium, the UK and France. Their full site will launch on January 29th. Sadly, there are no pricing details and no US release date as of yet.

If you want to eliminate the need for multiple remote control units, Philips has updated their Prestigo Universal remote line-up with the SRT 9320 that features a 2.8-inch touchscreen LCD screen mixed with hard buttons. It’s a looker. The SRT9320 can control up to 20 devices and is completely programmable to enable multi-devices macro and learning modes.

It comes with a USB port for software updates, but the device can be programmed directly without the need of software apps. The touchscreen LCD can display your favorite channels and customized commands. Sadly, the Prestigo doesn’t come with a cradle or charger docking station and it lacks advanced RF capabilities.
