Interesting article: I'm sure there will be much more out of the 2001 CES. =========================================================== Sales of consumer electronics goods from manufacturers to dealers will surpass $95.6 billion in 2001, according to figures released today by the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA). "The spectacular growth in sales of consumer electronics this year is due in large part to the wide variety of products made possible by digital technology," said CEA President and CEO Gary Shapiro. The effect of digital technologies on industry growth can be seen in virtually all product categories, with such varied products as digital televisions, DVD players, MP3 players, wireless telephones and digital cameras each spurring growth in their respective categories. DVD players have far exceeded sales expectations. CEA projects unit sales of 12.5 million in 2000, accounting for more than $2.4 billion. Also on the rise in the video category are digital televisions and personal video recorders (PVRs). In 2000, sales of digital televisions and displays surpassed earlier projections, reaching an estimated 625,000 units and $1.4 billion in revenue. CEA projects that number to increase to 1.13 million units in 2001, representing an 80 percent increase and accounting for more than $2 billion.
