Consumer Electronic Show Held Last Week

Submitted by admin on January 15, 2010 – 10:17 amNo Comment

1468515110,000 people fled to Las Vegas January 7 to see the 20,000 products released at the Consumer Electronics Show.
The Consumer Electronics Show is an annual event that takes place at the Las Vegas Convention Center in January. All the big names in technology show up and display the new and upcoming projects they have been working on the past year and gives people a taste of the future.
Though most products that show up won’t hit the market for a year or two, people still get excited for the release date. In fact, people showed up from 140 countries to see the 20,000 products get launched. To give a person an idea of how big the show was, it would cover 32 football fields.
Some products are already out on the market such as the Solio, which is a solar powered portable charger. The Solio is not just for phones but for iPods or any other portable devices.
Another interest at the show was the E-Cigarette. This revolutionary electronic smoking device is designed for a better smoking alternative to traditional tobacco cigarettes. Using advanced technology E-Cigarette allows one the freedom to smoke virtually anywhere, without the flame, ash, tar, or carbon monoxide found in traditional tobacco cigarettes.
Then finally the main topic at the show was the Samsung Super slim 3D LED TV’s. These huge but lightweight TV’s are perfect for any living area, simply because it is also wireless and can be moved 10 feet from the box and still work. The only controversy with this item is that it would require viewers to wear 3D glasses. Assuming somebody will invent something trendy to wear in order to view it, people think these 3D TV’s will be a huge success and it is already going to be in this year’

s line-up.
This global phenomenon of a show happens each year without a glitch, so save the date on your smartphone for next year.
