Mitsubishi put together quite a spectacle to introduce its Laser TV last night at the Moon Nightclub at The Palms Hotel in Las Vegas, unveiling a 65-inch rear-projection set that uses a unique laser backlight.

Giz Salutes the Non-Booth-Babe Babes of CES

They're the beautiful women of PR and tech journalism who are a whole lot more than just a pretty face, and we'd take them over some bikini-clad airhead any day of the week. Videographer Richard Blakeley and noted letch Nick McGlynn went out and snapped some pics of some of the real babes of CES.
