CES Day 1 report
Consumer Electronics Show!
Wednesday, January 4, 2006 by Frogboy | Discussion: Personal Computing
Survived the trip to Las Vegas. I hate traveling. And being cramped in a seat for 4 hours is no fun. To small too tight fitting to be comfortable with. Which brings me to a related issue - young overweight females should not wear tight fitting shirts that don't cover their bodies completely. It's yucky, gross, and just wrong.
As soon as we got to the hotel, ran into Steve and Marcel (Neowin admins) along with other friends from the community. Went to the Vista lab with them and the others to get the latest goodies on Windows Vista. A lot of it is under NDA but Microsoft certainly has an ambitious vision going on.
It's ironic but Microsoft has a mockup of IE7 that is clean and simple -- what people really want. They use the mockup to display screenshots of web pages. I wish they'd replace IE7's UI with that.
My cell phone died yesterday which really really stinks. And the hotel I'm in has no internet access unbelievably. Normally I'd just hook in my SprintPCS Samsung A800 multimedia phone to the laptop and voila. But without that cell phone, I'm somewhat crippled.
I will try to find a way to get a better phone or some internet solution. After all I'm at CES.
