The mercury is dropping, the champagne corks are popping, and the annual complaints about PR pitches are flowing freely in the Twittersphere. All that can only mean one thing: another CES is just around the corner, and it's time to talk about what we're expecting from America's largest consumer electronics show!

As always, we're keeping our focus confined to mobile - and joining us on this special CES pre-show is another luminary in the mobile tech space, Booredatwork's own Enobong Etteh. He'll help us break down everything from the conventional smartphones and tablets to the promising wearables and bizarre accessories we'll be seeing on the show floor in Vegas this year. If we're lucky, he'll even give laptop and gaming fans a sneak peek into the non-mobile coverage Booredatwork will be doing on-site as well.

If you think that sounds like a solid wrap-up to 2014 and a superb on-ramp to 2015, we couldn't agree more. Join us for Pocketnow Weekly 129 below –either through the live video stream at 5:00pm Eastern on December 29 (click here for your local time), or the high-quality audio version available later on– and shoot your questions to podcast [AT] pocketnow [DOT] com for a shot at getting your question read aloud on the air. See you then!
