CES 2009: Logitech Makes Me Wish I Were Rich

So, CES 2009 hasn’t even officially started yet, and yet I’m already drooling over some hot products being shown off early. This past Tuesday, Logitech decided it would show off its new G-series line of gaming peripherals, which include the G19 gaming keyboard, the G9x laser mouse, and the G35 surround-sound headset. “The G-series product line is all about seeing how far we can push the envelope, giving gamers extraordinary, engineered-to-win features developed as a result of our deep connection with the gaming community,” said Ruben Mookerjee, Logitech’s director of product marketing for gaming. “With each one of these new G-series products, gamers gain exceptional benefits; but most importantly, they can transform their gear to suit their gameplay.”

Sounds good to me, Mookerjee. Sounds very good. Check out more details and even a video after the jump!

• The Logitech G19 Keyboard for Gaming ($199.99) is the first Logitech keyboard with a color GamePanel LCD. The tiltable, 320-by-240-pixel display has valuable in-game information for over 60 games. The screen can also display VoIP communication data, clock, CPU load, and other non-game related things like pictures or video. The keyboard has 12 fully programmable G-keys with three macros per key, and should be available in March.
• The Logitech G35 Surround Sound Headset ($129.99) is the first headset to offer 7.1 surround sound. The headset uses second-generation Dolby Headphone technology, and creates an outside-the-head sound field. It also significantly reduces ambient noise, and has a noise-canceling microphone. You can also disguise your voice by installing provided voice-morphing software. The headset will be available in March.
• The Logitech G9x Laser Mouse ($99.95) features on-the-fly adjustable dpi from 200 to 5,000 dpi, and moves up to 150 inches per second on most popular gaming-mousepad surfaces. It includes two interchangeable, snap-on grips, and also features onboard memory, allowing you to program up to five ready-to-play profiles. The mouse should be available in April.

Sexy, yet expensive.
