First show of the new year. China and Google are no longer friends. CES banter, Doyle and Dave were there. 125,000 people, 3000 vendor exhibits. The show felt better. Doyle went for the parties. EBooks were big. 3DTV was big. Home electricity monitoring systems were big. Monitoring electricity usage causes drops in usage. Electricity bills were high in Colorado! There are still many standards and even iPhone apps for real-time reporting. 3DTV: Way too early - the dorky first gen. Not just glasses, but *their* glasses. Polarized vs. Non-polarized? Sports might be big, ESPN will have a 3D channel. 2010 predictions. Michael: A big fat year for Apple. iSlate will be a game changer. A leaked rumor names a genre (iSlate). Does Apple count replacement iPhone units against sales? If so, there were like 9 phones sold. Doyle says his Kindle is horrible for anything other than reading words. Dave - transition from keyboards to no keyboards. The convertible tablet PC was cool. Multi-touch gestures were hot at CES. Doyle's prediction: Twitter will have an exit of some kind and will become a feature. Bing? Facebook? Google? Who knows? Apple starts shipping the Magic Mouse with all Macs. Dave - 2010 will mark the beginning of the end of netbooks. More focused devices will eat their market. Is the netbook for the consumer, not the producer? Imagine these smart devices with much bigger screens (DROID, Nexus One, iPhone). Doyle's laptop is 500GB, but with a cloud based device, storage is irrelevant. Energy storage is a huge industry. There has to be a better way. Wireless power in Starbucks would be great. We'd choose places based on power. RCA was showing battery tech that gets power via WIFI. (WHAT? That's VOODOO!). If there's enough power to work, not charge, the world would be great! Power is a big problem. Doyle gives NBC credit, he thinks it was a trial balloon. Way too much credit Doyle. Conan has the Twittershphere behind him. Michael thinks Conan should go the way of Adam Carolla - direct to internet content. None of us watch late night TV regularly anyway, so time segment doesn't matter.
