Here are a few random shots from my trip to CES.
The crew from TLC's West Coast Customs was on hand at the Monster booth, signing memorabilia.
I attended a media briefing in which Stevie Wonder appealed for tech vendors to make technologies more accessible to the blind. He said that it has always "puzzled me how I can have access to some of those great technologies." He does use a BlackBerry, and he joined other advocates who expressed concern about the trend toward touchscreen controls. As Mike May, who is owner of GPS maker Sendero Group and is also blind, put it: “Climb Mount Everest? Yes? Use a touchscreen, no.”
I bumped into tech blogger Robert Scoble at CntrStg, which is a tech blogger conference that runs concurrently with CES.
Microsoft's Zune team hosted a party in the Palms. Pics below are with Jared (zunited.net), Grahm (anythingbutipod.com), and Marques (insidethecircle.net).
Cnet was taping shows throughout the conference, in the lobby of the convention center's south concourse.
Country singer Keith Anderson
("I Still Miss You") kept the crowds entertained in Sony's massive booth.
The Jeopardy set was installed onsite in CES, and Alex Trebek taped eleven shows during the conference. (By the way, those screens that display the wall of clues during the show? They are thirty-six Sony 42-inch high-definition TVs.)
Got some great info from Kicker reps Bryan Ganz and Jay Tonsfeld (pictured below), about Kicker's new Home and Portables line.
I met with a few familiar faces from the Zune team, including Cesar, Jessica (below), John, Matt, and Brian.
Those are a few of the faces I ran into at CES. More on accessories of interest to Zune owners, coming up.
