In Las Vegas, January is dedicated to electronics as hundreds of thousands of techies descend upon the city from far and wide for the largest convention of its kind, CES (Consumer Electronics Show).

While all Las Vegas natives are well versed in negotiating the convention from the outside – dodging masses of men in suits and badges by avoiding the Strip at all costs – this was my first experience with the show from this inside as a proper member of the Press.  And I must say, as far as conventions go, CES is quite incredible.

There were more large TVs, 3D TVs, and mini TVs than anyone ever needs to see in one place.  Computers, mobile devices, photographic technology, audio, home security and enviro-green-everything abounded.  There were tasers, robots, flying spaceships, droids and driverless cars.

By far, the most amazing invention I saw were holograms that have countless applications and, though they are in the fledgling state today, I expect will change the way gamers game and everyone interacts with their technology.  There were accessories and applications for every type of device ever invented and thousands of options for each.  I left the show thankful that I’m not a buyer who must make any major purchasing decisions and I can simply take in all the brilliance and recommend some of the things that caught my eye.

Since the cool little products that we use every day tend to seem underwhelming next to the flashy larger ticket items, I wanted to focus on those.  I always root for the underdog.  Also, I figured these are a few things that can actually improve your life and add a little Dahlight to your day.

De-Clutter with the POWERMAT cordless charging device
Designed to eliminate the hassle of plugging and unplugging your chargeable devices, Powermat delivers freedom and convenience by allowing you to “Drop and Charge” your phone/iPod/etc.  Simply place your device on the mat and it will automatically charge.  No cords.  No clutter.

Accessorize with DEOS earphone covers
For all you electronically-hip fashionistas with discerning taste should check out Deos earphone covers.  Exclusively designed and patented to fit the iPhone and iPod ear buds, You can express your personal style with the style that best fits your personality.  My favorites, the diamond encrusted covers (but I’ll settle for the Swarovski crystal option too).

Prettify your office with IN WN computer and component covers
If you’re like me, you hate the look of all things tech.  Especially external drives and PC towers.  That just means that you need to look into In Win artistic storage devices.  Made of beautiful Japanese porcelain, the external drive dishes are clean and pretty.

Spiffy up with the CYBER CLEAN cleaning compound
I love extracting gunk from everything, so when I discovered the Flubber-like gooey substance of Cyber Clean, I fell in love.  Shmush the goo over your keyboard, on your telephone, in the cracks of your car vents (you get the idea) and all unwanted dirt and grime will be picked up without harming the surface.

SINGGOD BKV Karaoke Machines
Because every party girl needs a mobile karaoke machine.

WALKMAN MP3 Player
I still have my original yellow Sport Walkman so how could I resist at least playing with the 2010 version.  I’m sticking with my iPod for music on the go, but this is a good option for those of you who are suckers for nostalgia.

SCANSONIC Sound & Style
How can you not love the sleek, retro look of these radios/mp3/cd players?  And they’re more than just a “pretty face”, they sound good too.
