So as simple as it is, I have to spotlight one item seen at CES that has effectively impacted my everyday life for the absolute best.

Every CES has an unofficial theme. These themes are born from companies that want to prove their cutting edge products are better than the competition. This year, 4K televisions were a central part of the show. Sony couldn’t stop gloating about its 4K TVs during its press conference, and Samsung took much pride in unveiling more »

Not all products showcased at CES were created equal. And despite my rough estimate of a greater half or so companies providing smart-accessories for on-the-go, it was also exciting to spot some non-mobility devices.  I’ve kept track of some innovations, from big companies and startups alike, that were made specifically for the home.

At CES 2012, Coby had a lot of Android tablets. Unfortunately, quantity didn’t exactly equal quality. None of Coby’s tablets were certified by Google at that time, and I found the tablets to be a little sluggish.
