We're all going to sunny Spain for Mobile World Congress, the annual trade show for phones, tablets, apps and mobile services. Held in Barcelona, over 65,000 people are expected to show up to see what the latest trends are.
You don't need to go anywhere, though: for the first time the different CNET sites around the world are combining forces to bring you the best coverage of this show on the net. We'll have a team of 20 people scouring the show floor for the hottest stories, and we'll be live blogging all the press conferences that matter. As soon as something interesting is announced, we'll have a story, photo and video of it.

20 people? Will that be enough to have one person for every stand? Expense paid junket anyone?
Jason Jenkins 22 February, 2013 14:41
@anonymous: Thanks for your concern. As you ask, 20 is enough for 0.01 people per exhibitor.
anonymous 22 February, 2013 19:46
@Jason, quite right, so sorry. After all 20 people would find it hard to cover every stand in only 4 days, because you will cover every product on every stand, won't you?
Howard10000 22 February, 2013 20:41
Don't think you won that one, Jason....
Damien2501 22 February, 2013 20:45
Sorry CNET UK, I'm gonna be on a real tech site, TechRadar, for MWC 2013 B-)

@anonymous 14.23 and 19.21....is CNETs expense coming straight out of your pocket. NO...then shut up or just go to another website
anonymous 23 February, 2013 20:18
Ace, thanks for making sure we know which "anonymous" you are commenting on, and that freedom of speech means so much to you. Oops, sorry, you told me to shut up, and this being the internet and you so obviously being a person to fear, I will.Or not.
I actually read Crave most days, and enjoy it. The reviews on CNET help me to decide which phone to buy and I regularly check those which are relevant to purchases I make, for the most part I find them useful and well-informed. But 20 staff to MWC? come on, they left themselves open to a bit of ribbing.,

Jason, As a member of the CNet team, fighting your corner suggests to readers that there is some truth in what "anonymous" says. 20 people is a lot to be honest. Also, everyone else, put your handbags away.
anonymous 26 February, 2013 19:17
Samsung have paid for CNET attendance, but I'm sure that wont affect the reviews, nor
anonymous 26 February, 2013 19:20
How come the Xperia Z tablet takes the mwc device award and CNET doesn't yet list that in detail
anonymous 28 February, 2013 20:59
Jason is cool
