As if the sun didn’t make things hot enough on its own in the Las Vegas desert, the newly opened Vdara hotel is giving it a helping hand. Turns out the hotel’s concave, all-glass facade is giving the sun’s rays a little more focus — enough to burn guests and melt plastic bags.

Okay, that headline is a bit misleading. Bose’s new VideoWave system is a 46-inch 1080p LCD HDTV that is a complete 5.1-channel surround sound speaker system. No speakers — just the HDTV. The sound comes right from the screen, or at least that’s where the sound starts. Sound certainly doesn’t sound as if it’s coming from the screen; it sounds convincingly like a system with the usual five satellites and a subwoofer.
