The fact that its NFC-enabled badges were the highlight of the show for Kevin Tofel speaks volumes about the state of CES. There was a bunch of cool stuff to be seen (4K TVs! Connected everythings! T-Mobile CEO John Legere getting tossed out of an AT&T party!), but companies are now more adept at creating their own big news events.
Despite all that, we pulled in Kevin, Janko Roettgers as well as Kevin Fitchard to talk about the cool stuff that did debut in Vegas, and we all wondered what the heck Yahoo was doing at an electronics show.
