RIDGEWOOD, N.J., Jan. 7, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- The first CES was held in June, 1967 in New York City and has been one of the biggest technology trade shows since. Some notable product introductions in the past have been the camcorder and the compact disk player, and we've made serious advances since then. Last year, it was the dual formatted DVD players that support both HD and Blu-ray discs.
This year, the big hit was a new refrigerator that has a digital picture frame, mp3 player and a message board! And everyone was wowed by a new robotic flying gadget for the kids. At CES 2007, WowWee unveiled the FlyTech Dragonfly, which was recently named one of TIME Magazine's Best Inventions of the Year. And at this years show, they expanded their line to more flyers!
Jessica Corbin got a sneak peek of the show 2 days before it even opened! And she's got a hot list of products for whatever you're in to.
