This program was exactly what the title promised, there were 60 slides of gadgets in about an hour in a host of categories: home, office, pets, travel, kitchen, etc... Contrary to my expectations, the gadgets were not necessarily applicable to Library Land and no parallels were drawn from the technology that was being highlighted to the future of libraries and customer expectations. Oh well, something to ponder for another day!
Some of the cool things that were highlighted:
Sensource - thermal imaging door counter tracks in and out, data is available wirelessly
Steel series shift - gaming keyboard has interchangeable keysets and even adjusts its shape
Interactive LCD projector turns any surface into a collaborative smart board
scratch and scroll mouse pad
Taxco phone - $70 phone, no contract, all you need is a sim card, has all the bells and whistles
Rescu.me -- text or call me in x minutes - gets you out of sketchy dates or boring meetings
laptop kitchen stand - for viewing recipes in the kitchen without fear of slopping on your keyboard
