At Kogan, we're constantly bringing you the best value LCD TVs, LED TVs, Blu-ray players, and other consumer electronic through our direct sales model and streamlined business. This was clear when we began selling Australia's cheapest Blu-ray integrated LCD TV last week, even undercutting a much smaller TV with fewer features sold at JB Hi-Fi.

We’re putting our time and energy into developing products like our imminent Full HD LCD TV with built-in Blu-ray as well as a Kogan LCD IPTV.
On our recent trip to China, our engineers showed us the great progress they have been making with IPTV. We had the chance to test a TV which enabled internet connectivity through Wi-Fi and Ethernet connections.

For now, I want to talk about the operating system. Claudio, David Mulder, andGreg all suggested gOS would be a good option. I tried it out myself, and played with Ubuntu Netbook Remix, KDE 4, and a few others as well. At the end of the day,gOS was clearly the best flavour of linux for the Kogan netbook.
We ended up choosing gOS because it's fast, easy to use, stable, and has a fantastic, intuitive interface. Here's a screenshot of gOS running a few gadgets:

As I told APC Magazine, the Kogan team plans to be selling a netbook in the very near future.
We're in the process of developing the Kogan Netbook right now, and it seems that the 10.1" screen size is the sweet spot between screen real estate and portability. Furthermore, an Atom processor looks to be the best balance of computing power and energy consumption.
There are however many other things that make up a netbook, and we're very keen to hear your thoughts on some of these, such as:

I'm disappointed to have to tell you that the Kogan Agora has to be delayed indefinitely.
This delay comes due to potential future interoperability issues.
The Agora did reach a very late stage of development. Manufacturing had commenced and it was a matter of days from being shipped to you. However, it now seems certain the Agora in it's current form will limit its compatibility and interoperability in the near future.

Here are some photos and videos of the Kogan Agora. The model you see here is a pre-production model, so the silver bezel around the LCD will actually be black in the phone you will receive.

They award the device a score of 4.5/5, and had the following to say:

The issue of receiving a physical warranty card with your products came up last week on the blog. Rob pointed it out first on the blog, and then on his own site. It really got me thinking about the paperless office.
The Kogan Technologies team have always tried to minimise the paper we use. First of all, we've found running a paperless office has reduced our operational costs, meaning we can sell LCD TVs, GPS units, and digital photo frames for even cheaper.
Secondly, it's a great way to help the environment. We're all wired to our computers pretty much all day, so why print things unnecessarily?

Up till now the Kogan integrated LCD TVs been limited to SD tuners. We've now released new models of the PRO 19 and PRO 22 which include high definition tuners built in to them.
I really believe these are the best fully featured integrated solutions available in Australia at the moment, at any price point.

I'm very happy to be able to tell you that in September I will be selling a Kogan Technologies Blu-ray player. Some of you might have a PS3, but there are now alternatives if you don't want to shell out $699 but still want to take advantage of your Full High Definition TV.

Thank you for all the honest and helpful feedback so far. Recently Chris G, Chumby, Bill, and Graeme have asked for more sizes, and in particular 100Hz panels.
I'm extremely pleased to be able to announce our brand new range of 1080P LCD TVs. They come in 32", 42" and 47" sizes and the first delivery will ship on August 4th, in time for the Beijing opening ceremony.
I'll cut to the chase, because I have always thought price was the most important thing. The 1080p-32 is $999, 1080p-42 is $1449, and 1080p-47 is $1799. At this price and quality, they really blow everything else out there out of the water.
They all come with:

Sony is allegedly about to start a “massive” TV price war:
They say that the price of a Sony 40" FHD model could fall to below $1,100 in the US and a 46" model to less than $1,499. In Australia this could translate to $1,800 and below $2,500.
