This year marks my third for attending the annual Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, Nevada.  As a few of you might already know, my father is the almighty Yahya Ahdout, the owner and CEO of dreamGEAR, a video game/iPod accessory and speaker producer and distributor, and he is my ticket into this amazing show.  You can find his wonderful products at many places including your local Best Buy, Wal-Mart, and Blockbuster.  One of his latest items is the Warbeast Guitar Controller for all Guitar Hero, Rock Band, and Rock Revolution games on PS2/PS3. But, enough of that, lets get to the good stuff.  I will be at the show for its entirety, and I will constantly be blogging and posting every interesting thing that I find.  Like Engadget and Gizmodo, we will be posting about the biggest announcements by all the different companies, but I will also use my time to go around the smaller booths and post about the pretty cool things that everyone forgets about.  As I roam from hall to hall and booth to booth, I will be accompanied by a very good friend of mine, Michael York, who is getting his new blog off the floor, and will be working in compliance with us at blargKABOOM.

Finally, the things I will be bringing with myself on my journey:
Canon EOS 30D – To snap pictures of everything for all you guys to see!
Asus eee 901 – For blogging on the go while on the show floor.
Apple iPhone 3G – For constant tethering, and music on the go. As it is also of course my telephone.
MacBook Pro – Yes, mine is in fact the first generation model, but it will be my home-base for posting in the hotel room. 

And also, a little background for those of you who do not know what CES is; ah god im too lazy, just read about it on Wikipedia here!

 A recent patent filed by Apple seems to portray that they will launch a fitness application that not only gives you a fitness routine perfected for your specific height, weight, and  other fitness preferences, but ties in to your digital lifestyle as well (aka your Mac, iPod, iPhone, etc.) Apparently the iPhone or iPod touch would act as a main part of the routine by showing you your schedule and overall acting as your ‘physical trainer.’ After answering tons of questions, filling out some personal and physical information, and giving some preferences to what activities you prefer, Apple’s program will dish out a specific schedule for your needs and show your plan and how you will reach your ‘physical goal.’ The filing also hints at some accessories, as well. It seems that Apple’s dab into the fitness market could be a good thing for everyone. Considering that the obesity rating in the US has risen drastically, and Apple tends to do very well in the markets that it joins, Apple’s look into exercising and fitness could raise awareness of peoples’ health and get everyone into shape.
