Consumer Electronics Show (CES)


What is CES? CES stands for Consumer Electronics Show where they showcase new and improved innovations in computer technology. At the latest CES, Steve Ballmer is expected to explain the high points of Windows 7.

Also, Project Natal and HP/Microsoft Slate were both announced that night as well.

Project Natal is a motion detector interface for the XBOX 360. Using motion-sensing cameras, sensors, and software, Project Natal will allow the user to use their own body and hand gestures to control games and applications. For example, you can sit on your own couch, and use your hand to scroll down the menu from XBOX 360 without using a hand held controller. In my opinion, Project Natal is a HUGE improvement from the PlayStation version of the EyeToy. At this moment there is no set price for the Natal.

HP/Microsoft Slate is more powerful than a phone and almost as powerful as a PC. Perfect for reading, surfing the web and taking entertainment on the go. The HP tablet PC is essentially Windows 7 multi-touch device comparable to a size of two iPhone without a physical keyboard.
