As we finish our gadget shopping for Christmas we consider the cycle of new consumer electronics. Debuted every year at CES, these products usually don't drop until the end of the year, or later in some cases. One of the prominent new technologies we're thinking about looking into next year is the rollout of 5G wireless networks, and here to shed a little light on this complicated topic is CNET Executive Editor, Roger Cheng. We discover the benefits and shortcomings of the fledgling wireless standard, and learn how its introduction paralleles and differs from the rollout of 4G over a decade ago. Then, Hollywood Car Consultant, Josh Hancock, expounds upon the Volvo S90 we first heard about last week - he is very impressed with its sound system, interior, and level two autonomy. Closing the show, we discuss Volkswagen's dieselgate and how it has effectively squashed the momentum of diesel motors in the United States. Don't miss the latest in mobile and automotive technology.
