Google had big plans to show off wares at the Consumers Electronics Show this week, but its grand unveiling got pre-empted by rain – and outshined by rival Amazon.
The Alphabet Inc unit set up a sprawling booth – more like a full-fledged showroom – at the technology conference in Las Vegas to highlight its products officially for the first time. On Tuesday, opening day, the space was full of Google-branded devices and speakers, TVs from partners and heavy promotions for Google's voice-based Assistant. Then a downpour blanketed the tent, forcing Google to postpone the debut of its digs.
