Are You Passionate about Neoprene?

Morrison here,

If you answered yes to the question contained in the title of this blog post, then you will most assuredly want to contact Tune Belt, Inc. and apply for a job. Never heard of them? Don't feel bad, there are lots of companies you've never heard of. Tune Belt, Inc
is the original and passionate creator of armbands and other neoprene carriers for iPods, iPhones, smartphones and other portable electronic devices. Tune Belt doesn't just make holders - it offers innovative carrier solutions that provide unmatched comfort, convenience and protection.
Sounds exciting doesn't it. I bet their office parties are off the hiz-ook with all that unmatched passion flying around.

If you can't find the phone number for Tune Belt, Inc, fear not, you can catch up with them at the 2010 International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) which is going on right now in Las Vegas Nevada. CES is exactly what the name implies, a showcase of all the latest and greatest gadgets. I assume the only requirement to have your product featured at CES is that it must have a short, predetermined life-span and be completely unrepairable.

Besides the slew of must have/will break, tech gadgets spotlight-pedestaled about the confines of the CES Convention Center you are also ensured to run into many stars of stage, screen, sports and comics. You'll be fascinated to know that Lady Gaga will be in attendance along with Stan Lee (Marvel Comic Books), Drew Carey, James Worthy (NBA Legend) and of course Garfield. Ton's of other celebs will also be on hand to talk about their favorite products.

Despite my bad attitude I am interested in CES because of the Emerging Technology Catagory. It's fun to look around and see what new and interesting consumer technology young, new, high-tech businesses have come up with. And CES is showcasing everything from neoprene to biometrics to robotics. So there is a lot to peruse. But I still wish a start up would make the bold move and create a consumer electronic device that didn't have to be tossed in the trash every time a button broke. Call me crazy.

Morrision out.
