Just got back from CES. I reckon numbers were down 50% from my visit 2 years ago. How could I tell without using sophisticated integration and measurement tools? Well, I got a great rate on a top hotel and there were zero lines for cabs and buffets !
What did I see? A great thin OLED (less than a 1/4"). A 150" plasma from Panasonic - not sure you'll be picking one up at Best Buy's anytime soon! Also, big price reduction on the 103" plasma. Down from $99,000 last year to about $60,000 this year. Not quite a red tag deal though eh? :)
Saw plenty of 3D tech but overall, I was pretty unimpressed with most things I saw. Lots of solutions, looking for problems in my view.
Saw a good demo of Windows 7 and got to talk to one of the designers for a while so will report back on the new UI in my next post.
