Join host Ashley Daley as she catches up with Eric Lundquist, live from the Consumer Electronics Show floor in Las Vegas. Eric lets us in on predictions for 2011 and the top new product releases for the year, such as the Motorola Atrix 4G, the Motorola Cliq 2, the Motorola Droid Bionic, and the Motorola Xoom tablet, which is based on the Android 3.0 version optimized for tablets. Samsung, meanwhile, will launch this year a WiFi-only Galaxy Tab, the Galaxy Player, and the Infuse 4G, an AT&T handset with a 4.5-inch screen. Also big this year; tablet PCs. Going into 2010, netbooks were all the rage both in the consumer market and the enterprise. But as soon as Apple introduced the iPad tablet and several similar devices followed it, netbooks lost their value to customers around the world. The industry is getting an early indication of how strongly buyers are interested in tablets during this years CES. Verizon Wireless is also making big announcements at CES. It announced a suite of 10 forthcoming 4G LTE devices including smartphones from HTC, LG, Motorola, and Samsung; tablets from Motorola and Samsung; a MiFi from Novatel Wireless and a mobile hotspot from Samsung; and two notebooks from HP. Verizon expects these consumer-oriented devices to be available by mid-2011, with some available as early as March. eWEEK will have all of your 2011 CES coverage, so be sure to check back to the site often.
