I was searching for CES 2015 highlights on google but then was distracted by the booth babe galleries. Oh well..

Working or not, seeing that in your garage would certainly piss off the Joneses.

I'd be the flyest cat in Ahwatukee if I had this bad boy. Literally

That coupled with the new line of Marty McFlys...Back to the Future is becoming reality. Yessssss. It's only a matter of time till they go full-B2TF and bring the food-enlarging microwave.

Are you a cat?

I like to check the summaries on popular tech sites like Engadget, Gizmodo, or Tom's Hardware, but I know they don't always catch the best stuff.

The flying car is inspiring! I'd like to spend an afternoon with the engineers who worked on it.

My application to be one of the keynote speakers was rejected. F*ckers.

 

[ilrein]

@Vigilante, it's all good; I'll see you there 2016!

Based on how quickly they progressed last year, I predict that 4K TVs will become more common and slightly more affordable by Black Friday. They've already got 8K TVs too.

On a slightly related note, the "reviews" on this Amazon listing had me dying laughing.
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00L403O8U/?tag=tff-amazonparser-20

"I was able to purchase this amazing television with an FHA loan (30 year fixed-rate w/ 4.25% APR) and only 3.5% down. This is, hands down, the best decision I've ever made. And the box it came in is incredibly roomy too, which is a huge bonus, because I live in it now."

"The black levels and color depth on this TV are pretty good for the price. However, the small screen size is a deal breaker. I recommend buying an IMAX theater instead."

"Very realistic image! I took an HD video of my garage door opening, then placed my new Samsung UN105S9 in front of my garage and pressed play as my wife was coming home. She drove straight through the TV! Ha Ha! I got her!"

"If you are an avid movie goer and love the big screen, stop wasting your money and bring the theater to your home! I mean, you're talking at least $10 a ticket just to get in. And you go to the movies... what... 12,000 times a year? After one year, that is money in your pocket!"

Ha ha ha, thanks @LOYD - that's hilarious. The Q&A's for this product are good as well:

Q: Is it wall-mountable?
A: Your wall should be Samsung mountable.

Oh man, imagine you could just say F*ck it, and drop $120k like it's nothing.

Crazy TV aside, this show has inspired me so hard to get shit done. Only the fastlane can truly bring such luxuries...

The 13 year old me reading Popular Mechanics is freaking out right now.

 

[wade1mil]

I don't see a point for the curved TV's they have out, but I could see a 360 degree TV being insane.
I saw a 2k? video on YouTube and it was so damn clear.
Eventually the resolution has to cap so we can proceed to Iron Man type shit. I want a Jarvis.

I want one of these.

There were some really cool things at CES this year. It's amazing what people are creating these days.

That hoverboard video made me tear up, though. Sounds stupid, but seeing that little boy's imagination become reality (I know it's just an ad) said a lot to me as a parent.

I also liked the look of the AmpStrip and WattUp - I could see both becoming very useful in my life.
