2001 Consumer Electronics Show (CES)
Top 20 Hottest New Products
The Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in January 2001 was very
exciting. There were well over 100,000 attendees from 125
countries and 1,700 exhibitors at the show. It took us four
days — from morning to night — to see the show.
Everyone always asks us to tell them about the exciting new
products we saw at CES. Well, the following is a list of 20
products and/or vendors that we believe are exciting to learn
about and could be of benefit to you at work or at home. We've
provided a brief description and a link to the manufacturer's
site.
Please keep in mind that most of the products at the show
(and on our list) will not be available till later in the
year. Some products will never make it to the public. We will
provide detailed reviews of key products throughout the year.
