Dieter Bohn 2019 is already full of weird and wonderful monitors

As CES moves into day two, we're starting to notice a lot of the quirkier, duller, and more exciting parts of the show. Some things are more exciting than they were last year (TVs are very good this year); some things have barely moved (laptops, what's up?); and other things are as much of a mixed bag as ever (hello, robots with cute blinking eyes to distract me from how useless you are).

The point is, we've got plenty more to come, and plenty more news is still arriving, too.
