"We look forward to providing our viewers with exclusive coverage of the technologies and people that will inevitably shape our future."
The five-hour live broadcast will feature the hottest reveals from the 2012 CES showroom floor and welcome industry experts as they discuss key topics from CES including "must-have" tech products of 2012, the pros and cons of 3D, the ever-polarizing debate of Apple vs. Android, and much more.
