I really enjoyed my trip to CES after 2 years.
What I loved:
- 3D Plasma TVs from Panasonic; 6.9 mm thin LED TV from LG (I did not manage to check-out Sony's 3D TVs)
- 3D movies (clip from How to train a Dragon from Dreamworks)
- real-time 3D movie editing on Intel platforms
- Project Natal (coverage on cnet) at Microsoft (human body as game controller)
- Nokia's approach to impacting the lives of the poorest while building a very successful global company (Project Progress with lonely planet has some excellent stories and videos)
What I Liked:
- Netbook from Nokia
- Netbook from Sony
- Blackberry Presenter
- Flo TV from Qualcomm
- New Intel processors
- Ford's approach towards building automobile technology
So What?
- Microsoft Windows 7 and Zune HD
- Intel Appup
- CE companies have suddenly turned green
- PCs and TVs will seamlessly inter-connect and that is useful
Big Disappointments:
- No Apple, Google, Dell, HP, etc.
- Lack of tablet PCs
- eReaders
- Lack of Mobile Software Companies at CES
- Power outage before the first keynote
Cool Geek Toys
- Parrot AR.Drone controlled by an iPhone
- Cool Robots from Japan (mainly toys)
