We miss anything? Let us know!
You're right about nothing that's getting attention. CES coverage was the reason i started reading endgadget last year. It just seemed like a non-event.
Engadget thinks nothing stands out at CES but will cover every nook and cranny at Macworld to make it seem God's gift to electronic comsumers. See they even started with predictions and rumours.
Thank you Mr. Block, and all the Engadget crew, for the excellent coverage, it was like being there.
P.S. Please go to the spectrum auction next week and cover the "old school" vs. "new school", telco on telco action!
Where's the Veronica Belmont Section?
The highlight of CES this year had to have been the presentation of Windows Mobile 6.1. Wait...
anything from shure?
What about Guitar Wizard?
Yup, Veronica was the best of show!
