Weekly Recap: CES 2018 Kicks Off Next Week!

Kellen and I will touch down in Las Vegas this Sunday for CES 2018, which hopefully proves to be a week full of fun announcements and new products. We don’t know what to expect in terms of Android announcements, but we’ll be there if anything happens, don’t worry.
