The Consumer Electronics Show, held every year in Las Vegas, finished up this past Saturday; here's a fairly geeky video summary by Wired.com's reporter Dylan Tweney:
Word on the street is that this show was smaller and less successful than previous years, largely due to the economic situation discouraging some companies from sponsoring or attending the event. Some also argue that this show lacked the unveiling of a hot, must-have product that gets all the attention. That being said, there were plenty of products that will likely get more buzz in the future. Here's a take on the Best of 2009, according to a Y!Tech article:
- Palm Pre: smart-phone that is said to be iPhone's biggest competition
- Sony Lifestyle PC: $899, 1.4 lbs, super-slim, soft yogurt dispenser
- LG Touch Watch Phone: wrist-wearable phone, a wrist-wearable microwave is in production
- Super-slip TVs: they're big enough, now make 'em thinner
- 3D TV: being led by Sony, LG and Panasonic; I just wanna wear the glasses
- Windows 7: said to be a huge improvement on Vista, which means it's about equivalent to 2000
