Hopefully what happened in Vegas won’t stay in Vegas. At CES, the world’s biggest electronics show – held in Vegas, baby - we must have walked 200km to find the best, the shiniest and the most promising tech on show. We’re dedicated here at Stuff. So it was no casinos, no showgirls, no margaritas (well, not many) – just gadgets, the best we could find. We’ve opened the Hot Stuff section with our 10 best devices from the show (p10).

Of course, this is our annual preview of the technology we think will be big this year (p41).

From streaming music to evolving gaming, from Windows 8 to the ever-escalating rise of the tablet, from more immersive TV viewing to smarter phones; we’ve placed some big bets (ok, so Vegas isn’t out of our blood just yet).

Talking of smartphones, we’re please to see the new Windows Phone flagship has landed in South Africa, the Nokia Lumia 800. Now that we have the full suite of operating systems, we’ve looked at the smartphone landscape in great detail. What are the strengths and weakness of each OS, the major phones, the apps and the accessories? See our superphones spread (p60).

Another big trend on show at CES was Ultrabooks, the thinner, lighter, better-battery-lifer notebooks.

We’ve tested all the new devices (p76) in this new category, which – even if it’s just the logical evolution of the laptop –is fighting the good fight for keyboard devices against the relentless march of the touchscreen tablet.

Speaking of which, welcome a clever introduction devised right here in South Africa – the Netsurfer (p22), a low-cost Android tablet that everyone will probably call the Kindle Fire of South Africa.

Stuff would also like to introduce our new motoring correspondent, Thomas Falkiner, who gets to review the fastest of all gadgets (p84). There are upgrades to some of our favourites cameras too - Canon’s impressive S100 (p96) and GX 1 (p25) – and we play with Sony’s new Vita games console (p56).
