Consumer Electronics Show 2002 Report

Posted by timothy on Monday January 14, 2002 @02:17AM from the toys-toys-toys dept.

An anonymous reader writes "I've noticed that Target PC posted their report on this year's Consumer Eletronics Show in Las Vegas. Looks like 2002 will be the year of wireless networking and recordable DVD. In the same article they cover Samsung's upcoming portable computer based on the StrongARM 206MHz processor that will be available in 2Q." Many wireless products (including 802.11a), huge LCD displays, and more -- I hope people who were at the show can comment on the things missed in this report, or in The Washington Posts's report.

side note - "for optimal performance..." by sammy+baby · 2002-01-14 02:31 · Score: 5, Funny

I found the following quote pretty amusing:

For optimal performance we did not compress the pictures, loading times might be longer for some and click the picture to enlarge.

Translation: we wanted to tell all our friends we'd been Slashdotted, so we made sure to include an assload of moderate-to-high resolution pics right in the page. We did, however, mess with the aspect ratio of some of the pics to make people think they were looking at super-long TVs displaying female dwarf powerlifters.
