I’m out of office… heading to Vegas for CES 2009.
Will post photos here of fascinatingly geeky stuff that I see. So far admittedly, outside of our (Microsoft’s) impending announcements I’m not seeing or anticipating anything really that stunning but I’ve been wrong before. In the forums, I’m hearing the same buzz around OLED based displays, Wireless Power, blah blah blah. Same stuff as last year but we’ll see.
TWITTERING
Have the intention of Twittering at http://twitter.com/kurtsh about the stuff I see. (We’ll see how long that lasts.) I figure I’m good for at least day 1 or 2 (8th and 9th of January)
PARTY LIST
And if you find me posting between the hours of 9PM-3AM this week… feel free to shake your head in disapproval the next time you see me, then point to this: http://www.cespartylist.com/

MICROSOFT KEYNOTE
(formerly known as the Bill Gates Keynote – 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, January 7, 2009, The Venetian, Palazzo Ballroom)
I actually don’t know exactly what we’re going to be showing, although I’ve been told a few things from some well placed sources. One thing’s for sure: No Bill this year. It’s Steve from here on out.
I am impressed with the keynote line ups they’ve got this year.
- Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer
- Sony Chairman/CEO Sir Howard Stringer
- Ford Motors President/CEO Alan Mulally
- Intel Chairman Craig Barrett
- Cisco Chairman/CEO John Chambers
