Weird and Wacky at the CES 2008
Being a lover of all gadgets big and small, I have always dreamed of going to the CES rally every year. For those of you who aren’t as crazy as I am, this is the annual convention where all of the world’s largest electronics manufacturers exhibit their new up-and-coming gadgets. I read up on it ever year, and always kick myself for not being able to go. But rather than look into the new HDTV’s and cell phones that are about to enter the market, I like checking out the strange and unusual. I found this video that shares a few of the craziest exhibits from this year’s show, and I still find it odd that people come up with this stuff. Take a look and see what you think.

Who wouldn’t want a hungry trash can that could potentially eat your hand? Or a knock off of the popular iPhone that probably doesn’t work a thing like it? And just what is so top secret that they set up an empty booth? I tell you, judging from the videos like this every year, these shows must really be fun.
