Anybody at CES this Year?

(moved to the right place)

This is my first year in 5 that I am not going to Vegas for CES (Consumer Electronics Show) and I'm going through withdrawal.

If you are there and still checking HP.org, please take pics and tell us what's new and cool.

Thanks.

I've never been to CES but have always wanted to go. Although I am in IT my job really has nothing to do with consumer electronics (d'oh!).

I used to go to Comdex but that became a real snore after a while.

Anyway for good CES coverage check out engadget.com ( http://ces.engadget.com )

Thanks. I actually visit that site often as well as cnet and I receive pretty much every email, newsletter, update, etc. from CEA.

Just feel like I am missing something by not being there. Like I said, withdrawal.

Thanks again.

You had to mention it and start the CES DTs again.

My brother and I were just discussing taking the kids and making a geek-fest vacation trip of it next year.

I'd love to be at MacWorld today. Can't wait to see what's announced.

well, since i went from a 27 inch tube with rabbitt ears and dial up internet service with a 5 year old pc in DECEMBER TO a 40 inch 1080p LCD with High Def and a wireless laptop with cable high speed interenet access, i feel like i am living CES in my very own house right now.
It only took me 37 years ! lol

Its nice to be up to date for a change.

this tv's taller than she is!

I wonder how many people can actually fit this in their room. I can fit it, but then I'll have to sit in the next room to watch it??

The only iPods I haven't owned are the 2nd generation iPod, with the 4 buttons lined up above the scroll wheel, and the 2nd gen iPod shuffle.

I just got a 2nd gen nano and the Nike+ kit Saturday. Depending on how they roll out the phone (and if there's an IMAP mail client available for it), I may just give up my Treo 700p.

Detroit Auto Show... CES... MacWorld.

And now El Nino.

To think, I used to hate January too!

I think I'll pony up for one. I need a new set of ringtones; there are so many people with Treos where I work, I'm constantly looking to see if that's my phone ringing.

Same here. I've had the Blackjack for about 2 months but would rather have a Mac-compatible "smart" phone. Now I know why I've been putting off replacing my 1st gen iPod (probably the only 1st gen gadget I own).

I love the looks of the Blackjack, but can't phathom the lower resolution screen, and won't do Windows! Thank goodness I'll be able to sell the Treo for more than the Sprint termination fee.
