Did anyone else think something actually hit the board?

Bill has to put up his Grandma.. aww....

Sorry but this seems way too conceptish

concepts are how things begin... without making a concept things will never get off the ground. besides, don't expect these inventions to be inside your hours.. Bill just put a lot of ideas into peoples head right now, and maybe an in kitchen LCD monitor with voice recognition maybe in our kitchens in the near future... who knows right?

Holy crap, that digital home stuff was wicked! Especially the bus stop thing.

I did actually like that idea. That would be very useful to many people.

What made me laugh about it was Bill gates talking about the coupons.

zOMG...I can save 50 cents to add to my bank account of $68,435,234,295.50

jolly giood show !

Few final comments

Truly exciting and inspiring to see what products are on their way into our homes - the 360 with its HDMI and it's IPtv has in my eyes just buried the PS3 - but i dont care about that i'm a pc gamer. Live anywhere really excites me and i look forward to playing some of you lot at halo 2 on my pc over live.

The car stuff was a bit dull and lifeless but the connected experiences was very interesting and I truly believe that as long as the Zune is learned from and built upon - its sucessor will be a strong contender for the portable media title.

And lastly, how cool was that house of the future. Ever since i was a little kid that stuff fascinated me and its always exciting to see what products are possible in the future :-)

Bill's grandma is still alive? How old is she? 534 years old?

Imagine if someone hacked into the bus stop displays and played a porno... LOL

Why does Ford have to be the only partner for the Auto thing

No other car company is that desperate I guess.

One other thing, does anyone know of anything else at CES worth watching? A webcast...and does anyone know if there will be the cast that did last year (forgotten the dudes name, but some American TV host/comedian that did a cast with Bill, I thought it was a classic!

    • Microsoft raises Xbox console prices by up to $150, discontinues 2TB version

      By Abercrombe · Posted

      XBOX is at the end of its generational life cycle and wasn't selling much anyway. They need to figure out the pricing for XBOX Helios. However, I'm not buying the DRAM shortage with AI preferring HBM. I think it's industry gouging.

      Amazon Prime Day 2026: Best Dolby soundbar deals from Sony, Samsung, JBL, Polk, and more by Sayan Sen Yesterday we covered the JBL BAR 800 which is a 5.1.2 Dolby Atmos/Vision soundbar. The unit is on sale for its lowest ever price of just $800 making it a solid offer. However, there are many more options to choose from and in this article, we have made a compilation of the best deals including from Sony, Polk, Yamaha, Denon, Samsung and more. Sony's BAR models are currently at their lowest prices which makes them solid offerings. The company's BRAVIA Theatre Bar lineup is designed to suit different home cinema needs. The Bar 5 is an entry-level 3.1-channel soundbar with a wireless subwoofer, supporting Dolby Atmos®, DTS:X, S-Force PRO Front Surround, and Vertical Surround Engine for immersive audio with clear dialogue. The Bar 6 upgrades to a 3.1.2-channel configuration by adding dedicated up-firing speakers for more convincing overhead Atmos effects while retaining the wireless subwoofer. At the premium end, the Bar 7, Bar 8, and flagship Bar 9 are single-soundbar solutions featuring Sony’s 360 Spatial Sound Mapping technology, which creates phantom speakers for a wider surround field. Bar 7 includes nine speaker units, Bar 8 increases this to eleven, and Bar 9 offers thirteen speaker driver units promising the most expansive soundstage and acoustic performance. All models should integrate seamlessly with compatible BRAVIA TVs and support the BRAVIA Connect app for setup and control.
