Bill Gates at CES 2005

  • Bài viết

I was watching the keynote talk from Bill Gates at CES 2005 last night. There are so many cool innovations coming out. The state of the art in software and hardware is now enabling anything you can imagine.

  • Weather report on a wristwatch? Check.
  • DVD quality movies on a device the size of an iPod? Check.
  • Setting a TV show to be recorded using just your cellphone? Check.

Exciting times...

    I agree, Chris, although I particularly liked the IPTV announcement: http://blogs.msdn.com/mswanson/archive/2005/01/06/347456.aspx

    Yeah, that's the picture. The Microsoft reality is;

    Burning pain as your watch explodes ? Check.
    Battery life shorter than a Tablet PC with DRM to match ? Check.
    Being 5 years behind what people are currently doing with their Linux based PVRs ? Check.

    ;-)

    Glad that the indoctrination is going well Chris, or is it the cold that freezing your brain ?

    How the heck can you get DVD quality on a device the size of an iPod? Heck most of portable DVD players don't have a 720x480px display?

    How about Bill's BSD (Blue Screen of Death) during his demos? I tell you, buy more stock in Apple.

    When I mentioned video on a device the size of an iPod I was referring to the Creative Zen (http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/portablemediacenter/default.mspx) and friends. I love the look of these devices.
