Greetings from Las Vegas! Once again, it’s time for the Consumer Electronics Show and, once again, Icrontic will be in attendance. This year it’ll be Binh Nguyen and I providing on-site coverage.
While the show doesn’t officially start until Tuesday, pre-show events will begin tonight starting with CES Unveiled. This is a press-only preview event featuring a number of exhibitors covering a wide range of products. 3M, Belkin, Chevrolet, ION Audio, Lenovo, Mad Catz, and Sennheiser are among the 67 companies giving an early look at their new offerings.
We’ll be meeting with OCZ, ROCCAT, Lenovo, SteelSeries, Samsung, and a whole bunch of other companies, as well as wandering the show floor looking for new and interesting products that could very well find their way into our homes. Each year we’ve found something surprising, and I’d expect nothing less this year.
One thing I’m particularly looking forward to is the new Ultra HD standard. It’s quadruple the resolution of the current HDTV standard (3840×2160) and is supposed to look absolutely amazing on a giant screen.
Stay tuned for laughs, shens, tech, food, and more Vegas than you can shake a stick at. Follow myself, Binh, and the official Icrontic Twitter accounts for as-it-happens thoughts and experiences from the showfloor.
Vegas, baby!
