Demo 2004: Picks and Pans
"For fourteen years, the Demo conference has been a launchpad for new technology products and services. But that's about the only thing constant about the event; sometimes Demo focuses on consumer products and other years it's an enterprise-fest. And it's seen both boom times (remember the days of dot-com excess?) and quiet years.
The 2004 show feels like a little of all of the above. Roughly two-thirds of the product launches are business-oriented, but home items are more in evidence than last year. And the mood is optimistic, but cautiously so. Even consumer products focus on solving real problems; as Demo Executive Producer Chris Shipley says, there is "a rush to be relevant." Herewith, some highlights, lowlights, and sidelights from the show, which is produced by PC World sister company IDG Executive Forums..."
The item I'm most excited about isn't the FlipStart, it's the Media Mogul from Molino Networks. What's your favourite pick?
