Those kinds of influx numbers cannot be handled by any other venue.
Let's say that they did a CES East in New York. They would not get the same numbers of attendees.
Exhibitors would have to do two shows instead of one, and the NY show would be very expensive to show at,
Right now, CES is that one show where an industry coalesces once a year. All the players show up and do the circus. Im not sure exhibitors would welcome doing it twice a year, and having to come up with "new" stuff for it.
Nope, I don't see it, Too hard to do in New York; and not enough payoff for exhibitors.
