- I spent today wandering around the convention floor at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas. While Comdex has suffered a painful decline in relevance and attendance (I frankly don't know which came first), CES remains a vibrant show. Vendors ranging from Sony to Pentax to Monster Cable share the convention floor with less obvious demonstrators like the United States Post Office. While it is not quite the spectacle of E3, some rooms certainly give it a sonic run for its money. As we arrived at CES this morning, there were a crew of men in women dressed in tuxedos and black dresses. |
