Since friends kept asking “what was your favorite thing from CES?”, I figured I’d share my favorites. This is by no means a comprehensive “best of show” list. These are simply one man’s favorite items, the ones that stood out most to me as unique in crowded fields:

(Prices are MSRP, I’ve seen each much cheaper online.)

1. Sony Vaio TT200 laptop - $1999
2. Canon PowerShot SD880IS - $249.99 (available for low-mid $200s)
3. Plantronics Discovery 925 Bluetooth earpiece - $149.95 (available for half that online)
4. Koss PortaPro headphones - $49.99
5. Altec Lansing Expressionist BASS computer speakers - $129.95
6. BlackBerry 8900 (and magically make it work on VZW)

And 4 runner’s up, just for fun:
1. iLane Bluetooth e-mail & txt reader / dictation composer - $599
2. SanDisk 16 GB microSD – price not yet set (probably around $50)
3. SanDisk 240 GB SSD for laptop - $499
4. Toshiba Tecra R10 laptop - $1549
