 So, we're in February now, which is actually kind of a slow month for tech news, because in January, CES happens. And CES, the Consumer Electronics Show, I don't know what you're doing here if you need to hear that, but it's a crazy, crazy show. And this year we did just crazy coverage. How many posts did we do? Like 800? Ten thousand? Nine hundred? Ten thousand posts. I don't know. It was like a fugue state. We did a lot of stuff at CES, and we actually wanted to give you guys an idea of what the experience is like being there for us. So we put together a little video, kind of a montage, and we want you to take a look at it. So check this out. What is CES? Why is it speaking? Well, it's the Consumer Electronics Show. Ready to answer your question? Ask it. I've spent more time in Vegas before turning 21 than I need to spend in Vegas in an entire lifetime. We'll send people in waves to the show floor to cover the news as fast as we can. This is Dieter Bohn for The Verge, and we're taking a look at the Lenovo S2. The Logitech Cube mouse. Thermador Freedom Induction cooktop here. LG's brand new 55-inch OLED. Sensex smart goggles. We're looking at the Razor Blade. This is the MakerBot Replicator. It's Sam with The Verge, and I'm about to ride the board of awesomeness. I haven't got any lip for skateboarding this whole time, but the fact that she thought we were making a skateboarding film definitely made him look a lot more suspicious, you know? Squeeze the pad. Good. And then you're just going to lean forward. Go for it. I'm going to stand back here with The Verge, and this is the Inventor Solar Wheel, and I'm getting off right now. Everyone here is telling me I don't look good enough for Justin Bieber. They don't know what they're talking about. Are you taping this? If I jump, I actually jump, and I can punch, and I'm just knocking buildings over. All right, everybody get into the turntable room. Three, two, one, go. That's right. I'm going to get the big news. Did anyone get to see a million volt Tesla coil at this CES yet? So what will these people be doing kind of like in the trenches? Hitting a horn. Just nonstop. It's weird actually. I don't know how anywhere gets done around here. You know you want some of this. Oh, you're a bad man. It is the one place that you can go and just see pretty much every insane gadget you could possibly think of. What's happening right now? How are you? Joanna. Joanna? Yes. You do love me, right? I love you. Okay. Wow. What is going on? Wow. I'm joined by Simon Segers, who is president of Arm Inc. We're sitting here with Aaron Woodman from Microsoft. We are live with Mathias Duarte from Google. I'm sitting here with the Ford CEO, Alan Mulally, and the CTO of the company, Paul Masquerenus. I'm here with FCC Chairman Julius Shanakaski. We'll see what happens when I crank it up. Are we doing this? We got the volume up here? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. How freaking fun does that look? I find it odd that I've chosen- It's not as much fun as it looks though, because we're working so hard. I don't remember any of that. I'm like, let's go back. Yeah. No, we should do it. Every week. Oh, yeah? We should just- I live in a trailer now. No, it's really, but we sleep like three hours a night, but that makes it look like the best time in the world. And there are like amazing moments there. I think it's weird that I've chosen to wear the same shirt and tie today that I was wearing in the video. Yeah. I think this is your sad way of asking for a raise, right? Yes, please. You're like, I could only afford one jacket and one tie? I've only got one fancy set of clothes. Yeah, one fancy set. So, now that we are a month away, is there anything that looks different to you in hindsight? Anything sticks out now? I feel physically cleaner because I'm in Vegas. Well, I'm not in the trailer, and I'm not in Vegas. The last time we went to the Cosmopolitan, which we were told was the newest, fanciest hotel in Vegas. No reps here from the Cosmopolitan in Vegas, are there? Well, I would just like to, if they are here, I'd like to say the inside of your hotel is very fancy, still looks like a 1920s prostitute. It's weird. It's like, everybody was like, that's the nice place. Go to the Cosmopolitan. It was like, this is just like a bar in Vegas. It's very, there's a lot of weird stuff going on. But the technology, it kind of, there's not a lot of stuff that I walked away from going like, that was incredible. You know, I'm still on the TV thing. Really? Yeah, because I, you know. Your remote trip? The remote trip. I think like, Neal I had a theory at CS, he was like, Remotes will change the world. He was like, if we're in about the TVs changing, the remote has to change. I think unless you change how you interact with the TV, you can't change anything about the TV itself. And so I still think this is the year when that has to change. You have to change like, how you push the buttons. If you're going to, yeah, Apple, I'm just going to cough that up. Is that what you're saying? Isn't that what you're trying to say? It's nice, fanboy. I mean, you're saying, that wasn't solved at the show. No, I don't think so at all. I come away from that, you know, that was, it was like, what are we saying? Preacting to Apple, whatever they're going to do. Preacting. Preacting. Preactors. We should. It's covered in Minority Report. Preaction.com. Yeah. Dot biz. And unless you figure out how to solve the interaction problem, you can't do it. I'm waiting. That's a big take away. Your theory with the remote has to change, but you were actually impressed by a TV there, right? Dude, the 8K sharp TV. I just like, I keep on thinking about how I want to watch the type of resolution of that. What is the exact resolution of that? An 8K. Do you know the exact resolution? 8,000. Just 8,000 things. I don't know. 8,000. Yeah, it's just like there's a lot of pixels in a row. I will say this. I walked away, we talked to the CEO of Nokia, Stephen Elop. Stefan Elo, as we like to call him. And he was a kind of fascinating guy. He was really smart. He's really selling it. I don't know. When you get in front of him, you don't know what happens, and two hours later you find yourself in an empty parking lot. Well, he's Canadian. Thomas Ricker interviewed him. Chris Ziegler interviewed him. And they're like glowing. I think he might be doing, I think he might be a vampire, and he's like, what do they do on True Blood? They, somebody knows here, come on. Glamour people. You knew too fast. Whichever one of you that was. How do you glamour somebody? It's like you look at them deeply and then they like forget what's going on and you tell them what to do. Windows phone. Yeah, right, buy a Windows phone. I was like, whatever you want, Stephen. When you were done talking to Stephen, were you wearing any clothes? Not from the waist down. That's a good sign that something might have happened. And like I said, I was in an empty parking lot. And it was two hours later.
