CES 2019: an Overview
By Tom Piper, UGAB Vendor Liaison and appleJAC Secretary

The Computer Electronic Show (CES) isn’t just a trade show, it’s an annual gathering that is so well orchestrated and run that it just keeps getting bigger and more important to every business and industry. From the OMG (impressive!) to the OMG (seriously?) it’s an event where firms make their best stuff look even bigger, better and days can be filled with excellent educational, informational sessions. Sure it’s all about the technologies and products that will change the way people work and live. The new stuff this year (2019) was impressive, but for the seasoned CES attendee it’s a chance to reconnect with folks and develop new relationships.

On February 5, 2019, I provided a variety of information to attendees at our monthly appleJAC meeting as a followup to my January 7-12, 2019, trip to the Consumer Electronic Show (CES) in Las Vegas, NV.

In addition, most of the gadgets brought back from CES were shown during the second half of the meeting, as well as predictions of what has yet to come. The PDF slideshow illustrating these items can be downloaded and viewed by clicking here:
