while all this setup is going on you still see a lot of bright lights a lot of big things here so we want to take you and when you enter the central hall one of the first entries you get into is the intel booth there are always really super colorful we know Intel's processors are inside of a lot of the devices here so yes so we have this beautiful lovely array of Intel ultrabooks these are these you know they're promoting a lot of their convertible different notebooks from Dell from Lenovo that they have this is a tree because we like to see screens shaped into artful forms right so we're going to come over here and show you a lot of the other things right now that are inside this floor again there's a lot of setup we have a lot of people here you see this a lot like five guys standing in a circle talking about stuff yeah it's very very interesting okay now a lot of people may or may not know right Microsoft no longer here at CES 2013 but instead they've replaced their booth with spaces from hisense now if you aren't familiar with hisense their company out of China and what they're really trying to do here is accomplished themselves as a player in the North American markets right we have the dominance by sony and samsung and even LG korean and japanese manufacturers that have really made their made a strong solid you know market their market players here in the US but hisense is trying to show that they can do it just as well so we're gonna keep on walking down here you'll see a lot of great colors here again intel kind of using this pink blue orange array that is it's always really attractive but I at the intel booth it's really they're just showing off their technology that's inside other products where a lot of these other boots like hisense are showing products they actually have so we have here check this out hisense also promoting their own new google TV box think of it as don't like kind of little mini set-top box running android with a Google TV platform we are expecting to still see Google TV is still there guys it hasn't gone away yet and hi senses you know making that part of their offering so we're going to keep on walking down this way a lot of open space here are also in boosts you'll see a lot of production going on where they make their announcements so over on this side these are the switchboards & mix boards for one do speeches announcements on their big stage over here you can see hisense with this huge kind of long wall screen and all these LEDs that are still getting ready to get set up but you know it looks it looks very nice all right we're gonna keep on going here businessmen doing business things right all right also here in Intel again they like to show off their intel wireless displays using intel with or with their cameras here for like you know video conferencing it's really a lot more I've noticed this year at CES is they're using a lot more open space where in the past they've really crap here when actual show starts gonna be a little crank right alright so we're going to keep on walking get around this corner just again give you another feel of what this area looks like before we get there though I know some of these screens aren't fully on but this is high census xt 880 design it reminds me a lot of the Samsung kind of design with that really thin bezel and small bezel but again they're really trying to make themselves a player here in the US and we'll see how they do we know David capsa myers our TV reviews guys so he's going to tell us everything we need to know and see if they're really going to be someone legitimate that we should pay attention to now we're going to keep on walking down here I'm gonna do a little mosey or reverse salsa if you if you like and go pro how can you deny the GoPro it's just really carved themselves a huge niche in the consumer electronics market really associated themselves with the kind of extreme action sports and so they're showing off content that has been taken from their actual cameras we know and we're familiar with the fact that GoPro recently announced our GoPro 3 which is their next generation of their GoPro camera with a lot higher resolution capture ability and you know you can really stick these things on helmets on your surfboard which I do in Hawaii which is always fun again here we go they're setting up this car here they just move this car in here to show off I've got imagine this is a race car that they've used but you know they want to associate themselves with high energy high action extreme impact sports there you have a GoPro now we're also going to keep on walking down here a little bit more and one thing if you guys are watching these videos we have this little contest called our sprint hashtag series and what we're doing is if you see a hashtag like that you need to follow cnet right in that hashtag we're going to enter you into a contest to win a samsung galaxy tab 2 10.1 inch because we like to give you the goody so that's something just watch our videos you'll see that you need it you need it you need a tweet that hashtag to CNF so we'll be doing that throughout the series but other than that you know this is just kind of an establishing shot of what we have at the beginning of the central hall we're going to be at Sony's booth neck so if you guys have any questions about what we can expect to see there I'll answer them on Twitter we're going to throw it back to a break we'll be back soon with more coverage more press conferences and more coverage from the show floor i'm brian
