Today is the day. Today is the day where we can put the nonsense of yesterday’s press events behind us and actually get on the floor of CES 2011 with our Ustream equipment. Hallelujah.
The show technically opens at 10:00am, but we’re kicking off the day with a live interview with Ford’s superstar CEO, Alan Mulally at 9:00 in Ford’s North Hall booth. We have twenty minutes with the man, so please, drop any questions you may have in the comments below concerning Ford’s roll in vehicle technology, the auto maker’s stance on EVs, or anything else, really. We’re certainly going to ask Detroit’s top car guy how he feels about the new US Top Gear series.
After the Mulally interview, we’re going to hit the show floor hard and fast with our Ustream equipment. There’s a lot to see here and we only have a couple short days to bring it all. So yeah, click over to CES.CrunchGear.com for the latest news and the live Ustream feed, which we’ll fire up at 9:00am PST today.
The tentative plan right now is to hit up the main central hall at CES first. This is the one that Microsoft, Intel, Sony, and other big players call home during CES. But there are three other massive exhibit halls and an outside showcase for vehicles and whatnot. The next three days are going to fly by and we’re bring the whole show to you live through the power of a magical Ustream wireless backpack.
As usual, you can communicate with us while we’re roaming the floor by using #Crunchgear on Twitter. Please, drop us a note if you have question or want us to seek something here at the show.
What are Ford’s plans to monetize the telematics going into their vehicles?
You mention Ustream in the post and show a picture of LiveU, aren’t they competing companies?
Can you say ustream one more time? Such a cheap advertising that, if you haven’t realized it by now, is very detrimental to the quality of your articles. You are a journalist/blogger, not a spokesperson for ustream. Low…very low!
If you like a product, why not rave about it? These companies work hard and deserve the publicity.
For example, I loves the dropbox.
dropbox dropbox dropbox dropbox.
Can you ask him whether he believe pure electric cars will have a bigger market or plug-in hybrids? Also, which new auto company he thinks will have the brightest future?
Please ask about opening up access to the on-board vehicle computer systems via devices other than Factory or after-market scan tools.
“we can put the nonsense of yesterday’s press events behind us and actually get on the floor of CES 2011 ”
so Microsoft’s keynote speach yesterday was nonsense,,LMAO.
How much is Ustream paying you to talk about “our Ustream equipment”? You dropped Ustream 4 times in that short article. “Our Ustream equipment”, your “magical Ustream wireless backpack”. Ever heard of subtlety?
