I can't tell you how much I wish I could poke around at [LG's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oled-m) CES booth in Vegas this week. They unveiled a bunch of amazing innovations including the LG NetCast-enabled HDTV which is compatible with [Skype](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dial-anyone) (to all you people who said Skype wouldn't take off, here's the proof it certainly has) and the LG CF3D HD 3D projector, "the planet's first Full HD, 3D single lens type projector," according to [Engadget](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/project-cyberdeck).

Check out the gallery for more pictures of the LG NetCast-enabled HDTV and LG CF3D HD 3D projector.
