LAS VEGAS, N.V. -- It always promises to be a wild, eye-opening experience for anyone with even the slightest interest in technology, the annual Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. And CES Unveiled is the annual warmup, a relatively small room full of just some of the gadgets being unveiled during the week to get the media excited about the week ahead.

If crowds around a booth was an indication of what most found exciting, wireless power took the prize. No plugs and cords for recharging your devices, just drop them on a Powermat.

There are also devices doing things you might not necessarily expect them to, for example, Bluetooth sunglasses. Some other glasses, not so high tech, but what you use them for is; 3D video conferencing with the Minoru.

2009 looks to be a year when technology zeroes even more on getting green with innovations like Fuji EnviroMAX batteries which developers say are, unlike standard batteries, totally landfill safe.
