What Kicker Was Doing the Week Ending 2009-01-11

  • We just spent the morning moving into our new space: assembling desks and pushing furniture around. Pictures coming soon! #
  • Watching the trailer for Objectified. http://tinyurl.com/7ot5vg Lots of familiar faces (Kelley, Moggridge, Ive) #
  • Preparing our stuff for #ces09. Last-minute assembling of packets, filming of demos, practicing of elevator pitch. Tomorrow: Vega$. #
  • Want your theme song to play when you enter a room? Now you can: http://tinyurl.com/7rndtd #
  • Interaction/Industrial design misunderstanding over use of word “chrome.” Apparently, it is also a metal, not just a strip where menus are! #
  • We can’t wait to go check out the just-announced Bug modules and applications tomorrow: http://buglabs.net/news/32 #ces09 #
  • Headed to #ces09 this morning. First stop: LVCC South 4 to check out Logitech, Synaptics, Magellan, Garmin, et al #
  • We can see lots of potential uses for Synaptics capacitive proximity sensors. #ces09 #
  • Loving the industrial design of the eton radios. Really gorgeous. #ces09 #
  • Admiring Asus design’s paper laptop. #ces09 #
  • Making our way through South 3 now. Nokia, HP. #ces09 #
  • If we see one more digital picture frame, we will die. #ces09 #
  • OH: “Our industrial design was done by a university student in China. We gave him $10,000 for it.” #ces09 #
  • We’re headed to the MOTO party. Tired, but fighting it. #ces09 #
  • Big thanks to Moto for letting us crash their party! #ces09 #
  • Headed towards the Sands. Looking forward to seeing some of the smaller booths. More innovation, less polish. #ces09 #
  • We’re talking to robots at the Sands! #ces09 #
  • We’re in robot heaven. Cool, cool stuff. #ces09 #
  • Lusting over Cocoon laptop bags. WANT. #ces09 #
  • The Samsung ginormous booth says in no unequivocal terms, We Rule. #ces09 #
  • Can see why Viable’s VPAD+ is in the Best Innovations. Really nice touchscreen VOIP videophone. #ces09 #
  • Nevermind young kids, we want one of these Crayola video cameras! #ces09 #
  • Every industrial design of in-car navigation systems is same dull black plastic rectangle. Where’s the differentiation? #ces09 #
  • Well, that’s a wrap for our #ces09 coverage. Regular programming will now resume! #
  • Dan in Globe and Mail, talking about touchscreens, Palm Pre, and CES: http://tr.im/cesdan #
