“Despite a subdued economy, excitement exuded from
the International CES show floor, with the sheer volume of
innovative products, the quantity of senior level executives from
the consumer technology and related industries, the international
participation from companies and government officials and the
partnerships and deals at the show,” said Gary Shapiro, president
and CEO, CEA. “More consumer technology business deals start at the
International CES than any other event on earth. The success of the
2009 International CES gives us optimism that innovation will
restart the world’s economic engine.”
“The level of excitement on the CES show floor was
at an all-time high with ground-breaking technologies such as the
Palm Pre, Sony’s flexible OLED display, 3D HDTV, Yahoo!’s TV Widget,
LG’s Watch Phone and a 1/3 inch thin energy efficient Plasma HDTV
from Panasonic,” said Karen Chupka, senior vice president, events
and conferences, CEA. “Microsoft’s Steve Ballmer announced Windows 7
Beta at his pre-CES keynote and the download response was so high,
it overloaded their systems.”
