Interesting

Certainly interesting. Personally, I think the Ultrabooks look hideous the the glass screen, doesn't look good at all. I guess they could have some kind of use though..

Intel caught cheating while demonstrating

Guess in the end, as long as it was actually done on DX11 Ultrabooks it doesn't really matter - if it was filmed on a gaming desktop it would be pretty bad

Also, on the Ultrabook stuff, why are companies putting price tags of like $1,300 on so many of them? Surely it would be more ideal to target a Macbook Air style price, since I can't imagine people being prepared to fork out so much.. (I know they are far better spec'd, but even so).

Kicks off in 18 minutes.

Thing is, with that kind of quality it must have been recorded through fraps or something... that would surely kill performance on an ultrabook

Interesting

I don't think I quite see the point in it.. why would you want to move your arm the whole width of your laptop? The screen function of it is interesting though, although I see little purpose.

I saw an article on this before. It sounds amazing but if you can't remove those nunchuks (and from what I've read you can't) then it's essentially just an oversized handheld games console and not a tablet.

Indeed, what you have is a Wii U controller enjoying a bit of hanky panky with two WiiMotes, if the pictures are anything to go by. A tablet literally has to be a screen, anything added to that is an add-on. Otherwise, you have an impractical tablet.

Also, has anyone else found CES to be incredibly boring this year? More boring than usual? It's just a bunch of celebs running around playing with technology that lacks any sort of "wow" factor.

Sooooo many OLED tvs this year, and some 55" ones being released THIS YEAR as well as a 4k tv being finally released and an 8k being shown off WITH NATIVE CONTENT!
Finally I revolution in TVs.

I personally think Sony is delaying the playstation 4 so they can stick in 4k compatibility.

Take bets on how soon Apple will release their lawyer hounds?
1 month!

Admittedly it certainly hasn't been as packed as normal when it comes to exciting new things.

Also, don't forget the Razer thing would play more than Sonic! On the other hand, I was talking to a friend and we both thought it would be pointless if the 'wiimotes' didn't detach themselves.
