Nevertheless, 100,000 attendees are browsing 4600 booths in the mammoth Taipei World Trade Center and Nangang Exhibition Hall (pictured).
Developments surrounding Windows 7, laptop processors, and Google Android dominated news on the first day of the conference, which runs from June 2 to June 6. Read on for the latest.
