Dave Zatz Sorry the blog’s been so quiet, but from last Friday until this AM I’ve been on the clock at CES. I’m at the airport now and heading home. Once I’ve had a full night of sleep, I’ve got about a dozen stories queued up (in my head and on my camera) that I intend to … Read more
Both TiVo and Sling had tables at the Digital Experience press event last night, so with about ten minutes left in the show I was able to sneak away for more details on the forthcoming TiVo Desktop PC software. Perhaps I’m overtired, because when I had originally received the embargoed press release on Saturday I … Read more
During the 4+ hour flight yesterday, I cleaned up a few directories on my laptop. Leopard’s handy spacebar-initiated preview feature made quick work of the task.

The show floor doesn’t actually open until Monday, but the deluge of announcements has already begun… Last year, Netgear sponsored my Consumer Electronics Show blogging and I took a week of vacation from my day job. This year, my day job and CES are one in the same. No vacation and posting will be light — I’m sure to miss out on timely coverage of the juicy news. (Even the stuff I’ve already been briefed on.)
Mari will most likely be in the Motorola booth (LVCC Center Hall) on Monday and Tuesday, and I’ll be found in the Sling booth (Sands) all day M-W. Additionally, I’ll be attending CES Unveiled on Saturday as a blogger, Digital Experience on Sunday as an exhibitor, and Showstoppers on Monday as blogger. Come find us if you’d like to say hello or learn more about our new stuff!
