CES Watch: The good, the bad, the ugly

CES wrapped up in Las Vegas on Saturday, so here's our third and final wrapup of iPhone and Mac-related accessories from the show. Enjoy!

• Posimotion introduced a Helix gaming grip for the iPhone -- like the Wii wheel, only for Apple's device. $20, which seems pricey to me.
• Don't even bother looking at these high-heeled speakers.
• This actually has nothing to do with iPods or Mac, but I just thought it was awesome: A mechanical autotuning system for your guitar. I want one!
• Here's a twirling battery concept that could charge your iPhone in a pinch and let you work on that finger strength.
• Cydle is a South Korean company that's planning to release this digital broadcast TV tuner for the iPhone for $150 in March. Kind of an old-school solution (in 2010, we stream video, not receive it), but it could be cool.
• The Fingerist is... well, it's a guitar adapter for the iPhone. Go see for yourself.
• Engadget tried out the Mophie TV adapter, VIZIO's iPhone remote app, and the ION iType keyboard and iDiscover piano adapter.
• Altec Lansing has some good-looking speaker systems and headphones.
• And finally, Macworld has an overview of the iLounge pavilion itself and how it reflects the market in general.

Whew! We weren't even at CES this year, and I'm still feeling the conference hangover. There were definitely a lot of interesting bits of technology introduced, but we have a feeling that the most interesting gadget of the year will actually be revealed later this month.
