CES 2010 Gadget Preview

It’s hard to believe, but CES is just around the proverbial corner--again. Yet PC and gadget makers aren't waiting for January; many of them gathered at this week's CES Unveiled event in New York to offer a sneak peek at some of the cool new products they’ll be displaying in Las Vegas just after the New Year dawns.

A lot of these gadgets won’t be ready for sale until next year. A few of them, such as the high-end audio speakers, weren’t actually demo’d in New York. But you might come across some of the products already out there on retail store shelves, including NetGear’s Stora remotely accessible storage unit and SilverPAC’s Evolution 5500 universal remote control, for example. Here's a very small sampling of what you’ll see on the show floor at CES 2010.
