Cell phone booths at CES

Cell phone manufacturers tend to go all out when it comes to their CES booths. We bring you the highlights from the show floor.

Kent German
Kent was a senior managing editor at CNET News. A veteran of CNET since 2003, he reviewed the first iPhone and worked in both the London and San Francisco offices. When not working, he's planning his next vacation, walking his dog or watching planes land at the airport (yes, really).
