A new three-speaker system from Genius allows listeners to adjust volume, base and treble — as well as select musical genres — all from a touch pad on one of its speakers. The SW2.1 1800 2.1 Touch Speaker System, which retails for just under $180, features a 6-inch subwoofer and a jack to plug in an MP3 player. ElectronicHouse.com (8/22)

Touch-screen pads, once solely used in less-than-exciting settings such as ATM machines and cutting-edge restaurant registers, are getting sexier, according to this analysis. One big reason for this is Apple’s iPhone, which was a game-changer for touch screens and is expected to help migrate the technology to many other CE devices. The New York Times (8/23)

A multitouch screen by N-trig, on the Dell Latitude XT laptop-tablet hybrid, responds to a pen as well as fingertips.
