CES 10, neon overload

Just days after returning to Seattle, I was off again to Las Vegas, for the annual tech explosion that is the Consumer Electronics Show. I was hosted by LG, with a great bunch of PRs and journos.

We all went out to the desert on the Tuesday to burn some petrol in back-breaking dune buggies, while Top Gun jets overhead roared into Nellis AFB.

We stayed at the Wynn Encore, with rooms dripping with mirrors, marbles and gold plate. At least from my room, I had a view of the mountains, the Strip… and the interesting mid-century modern cathedral beneath.

I jogged past it a few times on the way to the Convention Centre. I’ll leave it to you to imagine the contrast!
