By Damian Koh

BERLIN, GERMANY--At the Connecting Your World event held Tuesday, HP took the wraps off its new touch-enabled multimedia desktop, at the same time unveiling 17 notebooks including an ultra-sleek Voodoo Envy model, as well as showcasing a high color-fidelity LED display.

The two-day event at Berlin will throw up a slew of new products, so we'll continue to bring you updates along the way. For now, here's a quick breakdown of the new notebook lineup.

Enhancements to the Pavilion series include the "magic chrome" controls that light up upon activation, flush glass displays, color-matching keyboards and touchpads, and an onboard accelerometer that stops the hard drive to prevent loss of data in the event the portable is dropped.

    The design is still very, erm, HP. Why these big firms cannot hire decent design engineers is beyond me! There's Dell XPS series which suffers from the same.
