CeBit – Anything new tech wise?

Mar 5, 2009   //   by Dan   //   Uncategorized  //  No Comments

I was quite excited to go to CeBit this year (Tech expo in Germany). I’m a CeBit virgin so didn’t really know what to expect. Here are my 3 key learnings:

* Only go if you are a serious home user geek OR need something in the big business Enterprise space. i.e. You are PM’ing a large CRM rollout for a bank (Not that they will be investing in anything soon)

* There appears to be a lack of investment in anything new tech wise. I guess the reasons are obvious

* It is huge! Think 25 x Olympia. Wear confortable shoes and get lots of sleep the night before

So. I guess I feel pretty neutral about it really. Kinda fun but no real juice. Shame.

PS My fave piece of tech was a 103″ Touch Screen Plasma from Panasonic. Funny, My front room wall is just the right size.
