Next week is the 2014 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. Don, Hapy and Jason will attend to check out what’s coming up electronics-wise for the new year. CES features more than 3,200 exhibitors with as many as 20,000 new products launching during the show.
Marissa Mayer was announced as the keynote speaker for the show. For those who don’t know her, she’s the CEO of Yahoo and one powerful lady. Microsoft is said to return to the show after taking a year off and is planning on having a large presence at the show. Should be interesting to see what they have in store.
The theme of the show this year seems to be TVs, cameras and fancy cars. Here are a few highlights of the show that one might find intriguing:
- Toyota is using CES to showcase their latest concept for a Fuel Cell Vehicle that will combine pure hydrogen with air to create water.
- LG will have a 77-inch curved OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) TV on display. These curved OLED TVs usually have a price tag of around $8,000 but are the next generation of television viewing!
- Samsung has a few cameras they will be showing off at CES. Using mobile-broadband-connected and running Android 4.3 Jellybean, Samsung seems to really be pushing these cameras.
I’m sure when Don gets back, he’ll have a few things to comment on as far as what his favorites were, etc. Sounds like it should be a great show!
