CES 2008 Sneak Peak

July 5, 2007 | 2:41 PM

The Consumer Electronics Association provided a sneak peak on Thursday of its line-up for the 2008 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. The event, which takes over Sin City in January, will feature keynotes by Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates; Panasonic President Toshihiro Sakamoto; and Intel CEO Paul Otellini.

CEA President Gary Shapiro said the executives are all "industry pioneers who have revolutionized the consumer technology industry through innovative and ground-breaking ideas." Other big names will attend the week-long mega-conference. Details will be announced this fall, CEA said.

Next year's trade show is expected to feature 2,700 exhibitors, covering more than 30 product areas, including the latest in content, wireless, digital imaging, mobile electronics, home theater and audio. Read Tech Daily Dose's coverage from 2007 here.
