CES launches into unknown territory by holding its first-ever entirely virtual event, leading Jeff Porten to wonder whether it’ll be a disappointment compared to in-person. But the first batch of gadgets he has seen have some interesting contenders for your attention.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, the Ohmni telepresence robot is at the back of the pack in the voting so far, with the OWC Thunderbolt Dock at the head. 
The numbers are in, with 700 people responding! The moral of the story seems to be that the Atari VCS triggers some strong emotions, and most people would be very happy to have anything from OWC. Pretty much everything else drew similar responses with not many Yes votes, a fair number of Maybe votes, and quite a few No votes.
