We spent last week at the 2010 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, and once again we’re amazed that these companies were able to produce products that make us want to chuck the gadgets we just bought a month ago. This year’s show was noticeably more upbeat than last year’s recession-riddled convention, and with good reason—the tech future looks bright and, well, three dimensional. We couldn’t turn a corner without bumping into some dude with 3D specs on. But that wasn’t the only trend that had the show floor buzzin’, we gathered our notes and put together the five coolest tech trends we saw this year. If you want to be up on what you’ll be using in the next couple months, do yourself a favor and read below…

For a while now, ego trip founder/Complex big homie Sacha Jenkins and Dave “CHINO BYI” Villorente have been holding it down for graffiti by compiling writers’ sketches; Piecebook: The Secret Drawings of Graffiti Writers and Piecebook Reloaded function both as dope art books and historical archives of graf legends’ hand styles. So of course we had to bring the crew around to join forces with us at Complex HQ. Sacha, Dave, and five all-city writers (DOC TC5, KAVES, STEM, CES and KEO) dropped by to lend their visual talents to a photo shoot with an insanely hot model. Read on to check out the visually arresting result, plus our behind-the-scenes video complete with interviews with the writers themselves…

This wasn’t a very good year for technology trade shows. The economy had companies pulling out or lessening their presence, Apple announced they weren’t going to be attending MacWorld, the biggest Apple tradeshow in the world and Bill Gates didn’t open this years CES with his usual Microsoft keynote speech.
Not a good look. But shit kept moving. Companies still descended upon Las Vegas armed with the hottest consumer goods their R&D departments could conjure up. A lot of it was hot, a lot of it was not. We picked our 6 favorite products from the 2009 Consumer Electronics Show that you should be on the look for this year. Get ya paper up.
