This is a little bit of everything we did at CES. I was shooting with a Canon 960is which I borrowed from a friend. I have since purchased and received it just in time for Mexico. (Yep, I’m currently in Mexico.) The touch screen at the Intel booth was absolutely beautiful and a lot of fun. It was running the Intel Core 7 chip. Fancy!
The 3d tvs were amazing. I put on a pair of glasses, and then realized that hundreds of people have been putting them on their faces. Eww! I blame my giant face pimple on those glasses. I saw a lot of devices that made it easier to mirror content from your computer to your tv. Watch out, cable tv. The now is watching streaming content from the computer.
Justine participated in the Build your own pc race. It was so much fun. Next year we are totally going to try to win. We also rode The Big Shot in the Stratosphere. It was a freefall ride at the tippy top of the Stratosphere. I’ve never done this kind of ride before and I seriously regretted it as I was getting strapped in. Turns out, the anticipation is the worst, and it was a lot of fun.
We also stopped by the It won’t stay in Vegas party where I saw Brent Spiner and LeVar Burton. Eeep! They were completely surrounded by a massive crowd of fans and I was afraid I was going to get trampled.
Justine made a ton of videos from CES, so check them out here. The pc race one is great.
I saw some amazing new tech and had a fantastic time. I’m already looking at going next year.
Sounds like you had a blast. I want to go to CES but they have a 16 age limit!
Hey Karen!
Sounds like you had an amazing time at CES. The summary was very entertaining and lovely to read!
Have fun in Mexico and I’ll certainly check out the Canon Camera you were using!

Wow, better put this on my 2011 Bucket List! Looks like you had a good time.
