What doesnt matter? At every CES, a lot of what gets the most buzz isnt that important for consumers or marketers. For instance, ever since high definition televisions debuted and became mass market devices, the next generations of 3D, OLED, and 4K TVs have failed to excite people to make upgrades in the same way, as gorgeous as those newer screens are.Here are a few examples of technologies, products, and announcements that got plenty of buzz but are evolutionary at best and wont change consumer behavior anytime soon. 73. Not all change is revolutionary 74. Airtame wins Engadgets Best Startup though Google Chromecast has major leg up 75. Everything is 4K! Okay, so screen resolutions keep improving. Maybe some people will look up from their tablets and smartphones long enough to notice. 76. No, people wont be paying by having a cash register taking their pulse (though someone built the tech) 77. Real TVs have curves. So theyre harder to hang on the wall? 78. 3D theater were all suckers for it 79. Yahoo keynote announces ad platform, Tumblr integration. Weekend Update more newsworthy 80.
