12 questions that CES 2018 needs to answer

Year to year, CES has a certain sameness about it: Intel's booth at the front, Sony's in the back and thousands of ginormous TVs in between.

Is this really any different from last year? But turn the clock back just three years -- if not more -- and you quickly realize that the tech landscape of the past feels like a different planet. To that end, as we prepare to embark to Las Vegas, we've come up with 12 questions that we're hoping the world's largest technology trade show will answer -- or at least give us a clue as to where the world of technology will be headed in the next 12 months.
