Microsoft Keynote Address

Bill Gates, chairman of Microsoft, and Robbie Bach, president of the Entertainment and Devices Division, will deliver the pre-show 2008 International CES keynote address at 6:30 p.m. PST Sunday, Jan. 6, in the Palazzo Ballroom at the Venetian Resort Hotel Casino in Las Vegas.

Admission to the keynote address will be granted on a first-come, first-served basis to accredited members of the media and analysts with their official CES badges and badge holders. Credentials can be picked up in the CES press room at the Las Vegas Convention Center (LVCC), Room S229, between the Central and South halls. Attendees may pick up only their own badge. The doors to the ballroom will open at 5 p.m. The media waiting room will open at 3 p.m. Members of the media and analysts are encouraged to arrive at the theater well in advance of the opening to help ensure admission.

Following are some important notes regarding security at the Microsoft keynote event:

Members of the media and analysts carrying bags into the keynote event will be asked to present their badge; bags will be subject to search.

Still cameras will be allowed for credentialed photographers, but camera bags are subject to search and will be checked before photographers enter the keynote auditorium; flash photography will be permitted for the first minute only.
