Hasta La Gadget!

You know, Engadget is a big place. Huge, really, and we hit a lot of news. Tons even. Metric tons. When there’s a big story happening, we often do a number of posts covering every possible angle imaginable. We love being super thorough — and we know you love it too — but sometimes you don’t want to go searching all over the place for that news (or searching for all the news on that item). So we’ve introduced individual pages for the big stories of the moment (or “hubs,” as we’ve been calling them) — they’re just over there, on the right rail. They basically put all the really high priority material we have on a given device / event / experience in an easy to reach place, along with our hand plucked videos and galleries, so you get the whole story, not just little bits and pieces. Of course, they also let you see every single thing we’ve tagged for that particular story too, if that’s your cup of tea. Our hope is that it makes it easier to make sense of the loads of material we write… and not-so-secretly, we think they look pretty cool too.

Well this was one for the record books. Between the full-court press of 3DHD, Sony’s announcement of the VAIO P netbook… er, ultraportable, and the nuclear bomb that was the Palm Pre announcement, no one will forget this CES anytime soon. As in previous years, the Engadget team came, saw, and worked nonstop to cover every piece of gear we could get our hands on. After keeping it in the red for days on end, we’re all feeling pretty burnt and ready for a long nap, but insanely stoked that we could bring you CES the way it’s meant to be experienced: like a screaming neon blur.

We’ll be back in full force for CES 2010, but until then, you can gestate on our hard numbers and sad trailer teardown video after the break.

Update: We’re adding pics to the gallery, and just added a new video of us working as we normally do.

You thought we’d make it through all of CES without a prank? You underestimated us. And this one might be worse than last year. Don’t watch this if you have a delicate constitution.

You’re welcome, internet. That was for all of you.
